jim c 351 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Bill,If you should have a table available, after those with more seniority than I, get their table, then hold one for me.I'd like to display US submachine guns from the banana wars (1930), thru WW2, Korea, and Viet Nam.I think one table should be large enough.Thanks,Jim C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalbert Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I just want folks to know that I'd be there if I could. It's in Ohio, where I live, but I'm on an extended business trip to Nashville at the moment. Hope everyone has a great and safe time!

Sig Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 All 2013 TCA show attendees Unfortunately I had very limited time this weekend.Even though there was only a short window I made an investment in a 10+ hour round trip yesterday. I was not disappointed in all the great displays and the lecture, excellent job to all. Of course it was great to see everyone as well. Enjoy your shoot today. michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalbert Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 COLT CHOPPER sent me a bunch of photos from the TCA Show that I will try to post tonight. Some are the same as what Sig posted, so I'll pick out the ones that are different. Since I'm not able to be there, I sent my Maguire Toy Thompson up with TD...All 6 known surviving examples are on a table there that Bill Menosky put together. Looks like he made stands for them, also, from the picture that was forwarded to me. Cool stuff... David Albertdalbert@sturmgewehr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt Chopper Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Thanks Sig for posting the pics, David, I will send some more pics to you tonight, I'm gonna have to learn to how to post those ! Great time at the shoot, good friendly folks and friends to visit and shoot with, and a fabulious range, It doesn't get much better than that !

newtommygunner Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Wish I could have made it. My daughter passed in Aug. and we are still recovering. Missed seeing all the good folks and the great display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim c 351 Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) All,I hope everyone enjoys the high quality pictures that have been posted above and other pictures that will follow. But please keep in mind you wouldn't be viewing any of these pictures without the efforts of one man.His name is Bill Troy.Bill had help from many Thompson Collectors Association members and Tusco Rifle Club members , but it was Bill who put it all together.Bill approached a club that he didn't know exited a year ago and negotiated a weekend for a show and shoot. He coordinated food for the weekend , table setups for the show, target setups for the shoot and supervised the shooting on 3 ranges, kept track of scores and took the time to win a trophy for himself.If a list should be compiled of the top 10 T.C.A. presidents I have no idea who would be on the list. I'm a new member and lack that knowledge. All I can tell you for sure who would be number one. It would be Bill Troy.

TD. Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Well said Jim C 351, well said. I am sure all that attended this great Thompson event will be in agreement. A special hats off to the members of the Tusco Rifle Club for making this show possible. And to TCA and Tusco Rifle Club member Jim C for donating all the shooting awards, to which he took one home himself! Great shooting Jim - and all participants! I have a feeling this event will be even larger next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
