The following pictures are of my Thompson Submachine Gun Model 1928 A1,they were taken by William Brown.
It is a fully functioning firearm comments, thoughts, or questions are welcome.

Let's start with an overhead view showing the top positioned cocking... stud? as opposed to the later war-time version with it on the side.

Next, views of it upright, with some genuine 1920's era hats of the same vintage.

And a straw hat, like Dillinger preferred.

Check out this furniture. I did, and could not find a ding, scratch, or any other imperfection. Period. And this Thompson is from the late 1920's.

Just beautiful.

Now three close ups showing the markings.

Three more pictures, starting with a good view of the innards. The quality shows.

Spent too much time on the left side, here is the only good view of the right.

And the last, showing the muzzle area. Should have thought to take one head on.

BTW, this is one heavy beast, even with an empty magazine.
