WTB: Thompson "Tommy Gun" - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I've got the itch... can't help it and it needs scratchin'! I've been trying to convince myself that I really don't need one but it's not a question of "need".

I'm looking for a nice Auto Ordnance Thompson "Tommy Gun". Used is okay as long as it's in exceptional condition. Show me what you have that you might be willing to part with and how much you want for it. I'm in the Kansas City area and will be willing to pay for shipping to a local FFL dealer for anything out of state.

I'd really be interested in one of these:

My second choice would be a deluxe model with a 50rnd drum mag being a plus.

C'mon...Nobody has an old Tommy laying around collecting dust and need some cash? How about one of these??

This one would be mega-cool to own but the "magic switch" comes at a high price.

I got one like 2nd post but it's not collecting dust. hehe
They are a fun machine picked it up about 1.5 years ago at a sportsman's warehouse.

Well... If I can't strike a deal with someone here... I'll be ordering one the first of this coming week from a local dealer.

I would love to have one of those; but I would hate the cost of feeding the sucker.

Found ONE in town at a local dealer. It's a model 1927 A-1 looking exactly like the second pic I posted above..... and it's all MINE!

Pics to come....

Here it is. Came with 1 30rnd stick mag but a Tommy just isn't complete without a drum mag... soooooooo.... just bought one off gunbroker! It'll sport a 50rnd drum mag like a proper Tommy should!

Sweet!

When I got mine it was without the "violin" case but I did get a 50 rd. Dang thing gets heavy adding 50 - .45 into it. hehe.

I'm looking forward to getting the 50rnd drum. I'd "like" to have a 100 rounder but I could buy another XD45 with 3 mags AND at least 100 rounds of premium ammo for what they want for one.
