TD. Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 Does anyone know if Fred Vollmer is still with us and, if so, how to get in touch with him - or his son Rob. The latest information I have is Fred retired to Florida but nothing more specific such as a city. Any and all information would be appreciated. I am tracing back the history of one of our beloved Thompson guns and his name is in the chain of ownership. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 I never met Vollmer but thinking maybe (??) Tom might be working on another book and is looking for an interview? It'd be an interesting read.....the MG heyday, the dealers, manufacturers, etc.....lots of history in that subject area. If you own a gun, it might be nice to know whom that gun was owned by before you. I'd buy a copy (wink!) John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he lives down the intracoastal waterway from my parents house in South Florida. A few houses down from a friend’s house. I recall a tiki hut out back and the name F Vollmer on his mailbox.

TD. Posted September 4 Author Report Share Posted September 4 I'm game. And thank you! Any chance you could get me an address? Perhaps, your friend may even know a phone number or email address (but I realize I am reaching). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
