colt21a Posted December 21, 2020 Report Share Posted December 21, 2020 Yes that last statement makes more sense.You can count the guys left from the 60's still around dealing on hands and feet. not hundreds. Even J.P. in Wisconsin did not start up till around 1975 or so. since i sold him a Mat49 Nam Bring back around that time. and he was getting into the game not Thompsons just guns in f.a. Marty Pearl bought a Beretta M70 f.a. from me around 1980 And Dolf a part or 2...and a bought a pot pouri of guns from Doug Offinger. not sure if Dominic Tumminello is around anymore or Harris or ST.CHarles i know Rudin is gone they found his head in the desert sad story there. "The Sordid tales of the class 3 world Told in the back streets Alley ways and warehouses of the World" That could be a interesting read for the youth. But for a few i don't think anybody gives a crap anymore Since some have done nothing how could they believe someone did that much. It like the guy you sit with at the v.a. bar.for years. and later find out he was on Mt Surabachi. Killing Japs with a 1918 B.A.R. And he received a M.O.H.And all you guys talked about was women And the cat he brought back from the war. ha ha RON K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autorotate Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 So who is he and what is his story? M.O.H. or cat, either sounds interesting and would like to know them both so as to keep his memory alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin601 Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 Sure looks cast to me, due to the irregular surface and Shape. Also the bulged barrel just in back of the front sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colt21a Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Yes when the new {void} enters office. they can register them as dangerous assault items under the control law of 2021 And pay a $500 buck reg. tax. and have locked up in a vault not to be around any ammo. and a inspection yearly by agent of the new U.S.S.R. Should be fun.... you can keep The Thompson just weld it up and store in a metal case. History at its finest coming to a nation in panic.John Thompson had a long muusstash. And the chair is Made in China.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
