First to commit in writing takes priority. PreMay Thompson Auto Ordnance Bridgeport M1A1 45ACP "U.S. Property" - SPF Looks New! PreMay Ithaca “U.S.” Marked M3A1 Grease Gun 45ACP "U.S." - $12k M3 and M3A1 submachine gun The M3 is an American.45-caliber submachine gun adopted for U.S. Army service on 12 December 1942, as the United States Submachine Gun, Cal..45, M3. The M3 was chambered for the same.45 ACP round fired by the Thompson submachine gun, but was cheaper to produce and lighter, although, contrary to popular belief, it was less accurate. This myth stems from a US Army training film portraying the M3 as more accurate than its counterparts. The M3 was commonly referred to as the "Grease Gun" or simply "the Greaser," owing to its visual similarity to the mechanic's tool. The M3 was intended as a replacement for the Thompson, and began to enter front line service in mid 1944. Due to delays caused by production issues and approved specification changes, the M3 saw limited combat use in World War II. The M3A1 variant was used in the Korean War and later conflicts.Wikipedia Type:Submachine gun Place of origin:United States In service:1943–present Used by:See Users Wars:World War II, Chinese Civil War, Greek Civil War, First Indochina War, Korean War, Cuban Revolution, Algerian War, Bay of Pigs Invasion, Vietnam War, The Troubles, Laotian Civil War, Malayan Emergency, Sino-Indian War, Communist insurgency in Malaysia (1968–1989), Rhodesian Bush War, Cambodian Civil War, Turkish invasion of Cyprus, Shaba II, Cambodian–Vietnamese War, Sino-Vietnamese War, Salvadoran Civil War, Argentine Dirty War, Falklands War, Soviet–Afghan War, Iran–Iraq War, Persian Gulf War, Moro conflict, Burundi Civil War, Kosovo War, War in Afghanistan, Iraq War, Syrian Civil War Designer:George Hyde Designed:1942 Manufacturer:General Motors, IthacaProduced:1943–1945, early 1950s Number built:48,669 M3A1 Variants:M3A1, PAM1, PAM2 Weight:M3A1 (empty): 7.95 lb (3.61 kg) Length:29.1 in (739.14 mm) stock extended / 21.9 in (556.26 mm) stock collapsed Barrel length:8 in (203.2 mm) Cartridge:45 ACP (11.43x23 mm) Action:Blowback, open bolt Rate of fire:450 rounds/min cyclic Muzzle velocity:920 ft/s Effective firing range:Sights fixed to 100 yd (91.44 m) Feed system:30-round detachable box magazine Sights:Fixed rear peep sight and blade foresight, calibrated to 100 yards for .45 Cal M1911 ball ammunition NFA Dealers only.
