  1. Thank you! Sounds like the mystery is solved.
  2. I can't say for sure. Never researched it. I thought either West Hartford or West Haven, CT or Winter Haven FL. For the record, I own the Thompson M1 currently on Gunbroker. I am the individual owner and not a dealer so unfortunately I'm not quite as knowledgeable about transfers as many on here. As the add states, the gun is on a form 4 to my trust and I was under the impression that it could only be transferred on a form 4. I would transfer it to a C&R but to be perfectly honest, I've never done one and didn't know the details involved, but would be grateful if someone can educate me on the process. However, It was purchased through Rock Island Auctions six years ago and I had to look up their original description to realize that it qualified for a C&R. Its also helpful to hear the details about the A1 XX-out. I will say that it's an awesome gun and to be honest I hate to see it go. Just ran it two months ago and it works flawlessly. I've never had a jam or misfire since I've owned it. Welcome and thanks for the info. So can you tell us what the WHPD indicates?
  3. Here is a video of me shooting the Thompson M1 in this thread. I typically just shoot bursts to limit the wear on the barrel. https://www.dropbox.com/s/s7bpls99tl9h9xg/Shooting%20the%20Thompson%20M1.mp4?dl=0

  5. I recently purchased an AO Thompson M1 from Rock Island Auctions. NFA transfer is in process. My issue is that in Connecticut, any select-fire capability has to be removed so that it is full auto ONLY. (Yes, I realize my state laws are ludicrous but that's another topic entirely.) My question is how to remove the select fire capability without doing any permanent damage? Do I need a new rocker pivot selector switch? Can this be done without welding any parts? My class 3 dealer will have to do the modification but I want to make sure that I give them explicit instructions. I don't believe that they have done one before and not sure how much Thompson expertise they have. Bear in mind that since this is my FIRST Thompson, my technical knowledge is extremely limited so please keep it elementary.
