  1. I have published another book. I have found over my many years in the Thompson community that there are always new owners of General Thompson’s “Trench Broom” that are really at a loss on how to properly field strip and correctly maintain a Thompson submachine gun. There are many manuals and handbooks on the subject, but one manual stands out far above the rest. It was designed for crews that served in armored vehicles during World War II. It is a step-by-step guide, complete with pictures, that teaches the nomenclature, disassembly and assembly, function and most importantly, care and cleaning. This manual was designed and originally printed in 1941 by the Gunnery Department of The Armored Force School in Fort Knox, Kentucky. Its distinctive green cover is well known by Thompson enthusiasts. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find an original copy and expensive when found. Given the increasing number of paper collectors in the Thompson community, this manual is now a collector’s item. While a war time manual, I have added my observations on several pages for civilian owners of what are now very expensive collector items. This manual is also very useful for the Model of 1921 and M1/M1A1 Thompson submachine guns. The original manual has been reduced in size to 8.25” x 6” and is perfect for the work bench or Thompson travel case. As with the original, it is printed in black & white. That keeps the cost down but does not detract from its usefulness. It is a must have for the Thompson submachine gun owner, especially one that only gets his Thompson out of the safe once or twice a year. It is available on Amazon.com with a "Read sample" option that allows you to see some of the inside pages. I would encourage everyone to take a look: Amazon.com: THE ARMORED FORCE SCHOOL - THOMPSON SUB-MACHNE GUN, M1928A1: FORT KNOX, KENTUCKY: 9798340875587: Davis Jr., Tom: Books It is the perfect Christmas gift for those that have and want everything Thompson. I do not have any author copies available right now and probably will not be able to sell directly until next year. That said, Amazon has the best pricing for shipping. This forum is the best. I appreciate everyone's past support. Please let me know what you think of this product.
