  6. FOUND ONE ON THIS BOARD. I am looking for an M16 or M16A1, carbine or rifle. Prefer Colt but any of the quality conversions are ok based on price. must be double push pin type, not SP1.
  7. For some reason that article on WH Thompsons has photos blocking a portion of every sentence. I cant read it correctly. I appreciate the insight form several of you. follow up questions: is there a list of what parts are recommended to be replaced? is there one good source for all of the parts? Is there a go to guy who specializes in Thompsons who goes over WH guns and makes them right? what is the approximate cost of the parts and the work? In other words, is it worth it to rework a WH gun or pay the nut for the real deal?
  8. trying to learn about Thompsons and I detect the stigma of late manufacture Auto ordnance guns after Bridgeport. Mostly West Hurley. so, my question is; what is the deal with buying a good shooter Thompson. what to look for, what to watch out for. are there any good West Hurley Auto ordnance guns out there. I see them running 20K or more. a lot of money for something many call junk. so, who can school me on this.
  9. any for sale? dont see many offered. what is going price for one? looking at one that is nice. want to know if its decent price or over priced any others out there
  10. hey everyone, thanks for the info and insight. Especially Mike Todd. funny you mention about running 45 cal can on the 180 and then cleaning on a 45 with a mag or two. I called one suppressor company and they said not to do it. I guess they just want to sell rimfire suppressors!!!! would a direct thread 9mm can do the same? or do you need the extra size of the 45 hole to make it work? Cant wait to get delivery of my 180. any tips on running the gun? lube? do's and donts?
  11. thanks for th einfo. I am getting the AM 180 but may get a CMMG upper for my M16 as a secondary. anyone have any suggestions on suppressors for running on 22 FA? they can lead up pretty quick. I have read some say that use a centerfire suppressor and then after you load it up with lead fouling form rimfire, put it on a 45 and crank a mag or two through it to blast all the crap out. Urban legend or truth?? I have several 22 cans and they are FA rated but I dont think for extended mag dumps/ definitely not for 275 rds at 1400 rpm!!!
  12. Why did you get rid of your 180? Did it function with subsonic ammunition or standard velocity ammunition? I want to be able to run it suppressed and use standard velocity or subsonic. Was there any downside to the 180? Other than cost? The thing I don’t like about that upper for the M-16 that takes the horizontal mags is that you got a change out the fire control parts. That’s not a big deal but doing it all the time and having to pull the selector switch and everything else gets to be a pain in the ass.
  13. I have a Colt M16. looking at 22 conversion unit for it or an American 180 The Tactical Innovations upper looks cool but I don't want to have to switch fire control parts all the time to go form caliber to caliber. who makes a good 22 upper and mags that will be drop in, no messing with compatible with my Colt? one that will reliably run subsonic for suppressor use. Or do I look at an American 180 and go with that? does anyone know if the American 180 runs with sub sonic? looking at suppressor capabilities also and whatever I get I would like to run subs in it to get best noise reduction. its all about the fun factor more than anything. thoughts, observations, suggestions
  14. I just joined I am new to the NFA world. Just bought my first FA, a Colt M16. now the wait!!! anyway, I will attest, suppressors are the gateway drug to heavy full auto addiction. I am looking at another FA purchase already. just cant get enough.
