6 30 round Thompson Magazines. One Seymour blued, 4 government marked blued, one parkerized. All of these have had the magazine catch hole elongated to be used in a semi gun. Excellent condition. Sold my semi and don't need them. $180 for all, $90 for 3, in each case plus $20 per package shipping.
My Colt Thompson just had it's 102 birthday and I shoot it with some regularity. (lately with the 22 conversion). It was an oddity as a gun in mint / excellent condition but with an 8" barrel (much debate as to the providence of that). So not a pure museum piece. Any degradation in value from me shooting it (and other guns) will be between my kids and the auction house and I will not be in a position to care.
The ATF has finally deemed me worthy to take possession of my new M16A1. I intend to replace all the parts except the receiver for shooting (and squirrel the original part away in my safe). Upper and stock are simple. For the FCG I intend to use a Giessele SSF and KNS pins but need a quality source for the rest of the FCG. Anyone have thoughts on a good vendor? Any issues I should look out for, thanks
