Tonetiup Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 This Bridgeport Thompson is an Original WWII Machine Gun MADE in Connecticut NOT a West Hurley! The Barrel looks to be original and in excellent condition. Wood it Very Good Condition The finish has been redone at some time. No pitting or issues this Will shoot all day and never fail.The upper and lower do not match. The brace was done at the factory. This has the Dog ears 183000 serial Number. There are 3 Stamps GEG FJA and the Ordinance department stamp. It is a real M1 not over stamped. The FJA may mean this is a Savage but the serial number does not indicate that. On a Form 3 so it will transfer Quick. Tom Stewart 602-763-8867 Price 24,500.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank I Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 Note the small letter S just aft of the grip mount on the bottom of the receiver, that indicates Savage MFG. Only the 1928 series used an S prefix on the serial number. The Savage Thompsons were made in Utica, NY under contract with Auto-Ordnance of Bridgeport, Connecticut.
