colt21a

SEND IT TO ME my b.i.l. did 30 years there. and retired. he can put it with his model 870 shotgun with the same stamped buttstock.don't waste it because they will only toss it in trash RON k.

Hope he made it home, and lived a long good life.

I had 2 both sold along with a rare Cook County 2 gun hardcase. and sold #6349 my Illinois state police CASED Thompson{VERY FEW AROUND IN PRIVATE HANDS} Yes the decades on these items has flown by, and at this stage nothing is coming out of Chicago P.D.AND ALL THE COLT ITEMS HAVE BEEN STRIPPED out of those guns that remain and all colt drums are long long gone. they all have ww2 era drums as of this date. I still have all the color photos in file. was a good time for me in life chasing it all down....sadly my ST VALS gun i sold to a friend who passed and now has been resold. have all the info but was never contacted by the buyer for the colt letter. and all other paperwork. his loss. anyhow good luck with the sale not many out there anymore. RON K.

That is a great pic and story...AND A GOOD MEMORY of your dad for sure...

Back around 1990 i got a 27 semi made to fire full auto reg and all that, From REED KNIGHT. first Numrich i ever had conversion..TOOK ON TRADE,Had correct short barrel comp. and also 21 slide stock lower, not the m1a1 think they sold.shot it once worked okay but numrich drum jammed. was going to keep instead of shooting Colts i had. But just was not looking the look so sold it to some guy in wi. who owned a range. and rented guns. told him good luck with it. later he said he ran well over 5,000 rounds thru it no issues. I FIGURED GREAT I AM NOT GETTING IT BACK... THAT FIRING PIN DEAL IS A WASTE. I have been thru enough guns to know.

AND WHEN ALL THIS STUFF MIGHT CHANGE IF IT EVER DOES THE SELLER MIGHT BE GONE THE NEW OWNER OLD, and if to be resold who knows what nightmare may await.ON ALL DEALS LIKE THIS ONE. I GUESS I HANDLED MYSELF IN THE 38 PLUS YEARS OF DEALING AS A FFL/SOT FAIRLY WELL, DID NOT HAVE ANY OF THIS CRAP TO DEAL WITH. If not for F&F, and the gov chasing me with stupid issues. it would have been great. And when you don't have to deal with any of it anymore. yeah the Freedom really sets in.

inertord is correct, right there. {thanks}I would have seen it if i bothered to blow up pic. and had a few like that well over 25 years ago. grab the refund, you don't need any further check out and delay, pretty simple.

Wishing and hope will do nothing. if offered you a refund take it now. and move on before some other crisis happens and your money is kaput someplace. {and we will HEAR how you got stabbed on a deal} heard stories like that for decades. there are guns out there to get why get tied up in lets check it out paperwork for months. unless you are worth over $20 million and its chump change. but normally people worth that don't arrive on the forum.. they are way too busy making more.CLICK THE PIC FOR A LAUGH

ITS OFF TO THE LAND OF THE GREEN AND THE SOUND OF A THOMPSON GUN...

Was told decades ago when i was sending a 21ac there the lower had to be welded for semi auto. i told the buyer i do not think so he was told yes. I SAID FOR DOUBLE I CAN SELL YOU A 1927AC Colt. he said can't afford it,{ i sold it to Joe in pa. instead.} and said can't sell you the 1921ac i am not getting anything welded up. it was a time of $5,000 Thompsons. The rocker makes sense as good to go. that is why they like MP40' AND GREASEGUNS THERE. Don't sell anything to Maryland anymore either another local or state law on a.w. GOOD LUCK WITH ANY INFO YOU FIND TO HELP YOU.

Sadly i think Ron Mills passed away have not been in contact in over 2 years. i hope i am wrong. IF SOMEBODY KNOWS IF HE IS HIDING OUT LET ME KNOW. I HAVE TRIED OVER TEN TIMES In past year.IN ILLINOIS AND ARIZONA.

a real nice unmessed with original. and with some great history.And mags and sling.

Yeah they now want $340 shipped not bad. If a guy needs to fill a hardcase spot. I SOLD ONE AT SAR SHOW 4 YEARS AGO FOR $500.00. EVEN THESE will get more. i think when i bought the few from Gordon decade or longer it was like $200 bucks. but i sold the 4 originals i had from $1500 to $2000 and that was well over 30 years ago.. I miss Gordon a real great guy, and a friend. update new ad they have more to go around..... if somebody needs one or wants to just have one. go get um..

Let me add this have done the Thompson thing for well over 50 years. might be a few left in country longer. but i highly doubt...that is one nice gun, in finish and metal looks great. Wood can always be replaced. or redone. but it has the look of use. which is what some strife for....unless you have a new in crate one this is the one. i would be sending a check today for 10 like that heck maybe 20 of them.. you hit the gold with that place. and remember with Thompsons do homework always, but also go on what you know also the guy feeling. i bought so many Thompsons of some that looked before and passed on them and the rest i bought as first offering so nobody else would get chance to get it. sec company, police depts and some private sale. many a collector started in the 90's and later.I had a 20 year jump. considering i went and saw Earl in 1971,and many many more who are now gone, who i considered friends and not just for Thompsons.I DON'T GET INTO THE MINUTE DETAILS OF A SCREW OR PIN. OR IS THE COMP TOUCHED UP BLUE. AND WHO FINGER PRINTED THE BUTTSTOCK LATCH. AFTER AWHILE no need for that...when you have seen hundreds and hundreds you know what to look for. it was always fun in decades past all the so called experts. would give me a call on this or that. as nobody knows it all we still learn daily but all the so called experts did bizz with me and we bought from one another for years. and some for decades. you came to the right place for info. And you found a decent one be proud. i hope you got lucky and secured it. and have a good 2025. Ron K.

WELL WAIT UNTIL THEY SELL THE BOAT ANCHOR 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA MODEL FOR $20 G.BUY IT GUYS HAVE SOLD PARTS KITS FOR THAT PRICE. ITS NOT A MUSEUM GUN ITS NOT PATTONS OR PERSHINGS ITS WHAT IT IS A WAR TIME USED GUN. WITH NO FREAKING PITS OR RUST. BUY IT.. AND BE HAPPY....
