Imagine how much $$$ a Thompson can burn through with just one loading of the drum.

[WillyCamaro]

You can say that again rr.
100 rounds decent quality blunt head .45's, i'll find out how much it would cost here in Canada.

[Colonel26]

My 1911’s can run through more than I can afford. I can only imagine a Thompson!

[WillyCamaro]

Yer lookin at about $50 cdn. for 100 rounds of 230 grain .45 Remington UMC. And that's bottom end shells, good stuff will run you over $75 a drum . No wonder criminals don't use it anymore, it would put them out of business financially!

I’d have loved it too!

My holsters.

You can never have too many holsters! At least that’s what I tell myself. It seems you have to buy, and try, at least a half-dozen before you find the right one. Then the rest just sit gathering dust.

I agree Ken. You also need the items to put in the holsters. It's a shame I can't wear them all at the same time.

That's $120 to fill the drum along with an empty wallet. But I bet it is a lot of fun and everything has its price, so . . . rat-a-tat away! As far as shooting goes, I love the feel of a .45 auto cartridge going off, have never felt a firearm in this cal. that I didn't like.

Same here ….

[Byrd]

Agreed. I've been shooting the .45ACP for. 40 years so the Thompson was a holy grail. Here's a couple more pics.

Byrd, is that you or someone else?

[Byrd]

That's me Jerry.

[Colonel26]

That's me Jerry.

That should be your new avatar! Great pic.

[Byrd]

If I could figure out how to do it I would! That's a great idea!

You have a PM.

[Byrd]

I didn't get the PM Jerry.

[1967redrider]

Those are very sweet!!!

[jerryd6818]

I didn't get the PM Jerry.

Not sure what happened. 2nd try.

[Byrd]

Thank you Jerry! It worked!.

[jerryd6818]

My pleasure. I must have pulled one of those stunts (which I do occasionally) where I Preview the post and somehow my brain tells me I submitted it but I didn't. All you younger fellas, see what you have to look forward to?

[Quick Steel]

jerry, I've done that preview trick far too often. Have gotten much better at avoiding that...with effort.

[TwoFlowersLuggage]

I avoid that problem by not caring what mistakes I have made in my posts. Write it, send it! Deciphering my gibberish is your problem...
