smkummer Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) The author appears to have very little knowedge of a Thompson. He constantly refers to the 100 round capacity but only 50 round drums are shown. While hip shooting is effective for short range, the author makes it appear that aiming with the sights is not needed. It is journalism such as this that left the general public with a sour taste to such a firearm. It is a classic case of never letting FACTS get in the way of a good story.

mnshooter Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) A program on PBS last week had a police chief talking about the eviels (sic per "Blazing Saddles",which has more credibility than this guy) talking about the Infamous Striker Shotgun, banned, because it "had a rotary magazine that could hold100 rounds".And I thought the C drum was big...
