THOMPSON SUBMACHINE GUN PATENTS

Everyone who has owned a Model 1921, 1928 or 1928A1 Thompson Submachine Gun has observed the patent markings on the side of the gun. Those markings are either in the form of patent dates or patent numbers. This book is intended to provide the information necessary for the Thompson owner to understand patents and to appreciate what those patent references meant in the development of the gun. Reprints of the original patent documents are included. This book also discloses for the first time ever how an incorrect patent number mistakenly got put on the side of some Model 1928 Savage guns and all Model 1928A1 guns.

THOMPSON SUBMACHINE GUN SUPPRESSOR

Attempts have been made over the years to silence the Thompson Submachine Gun. These include the Maxim silencer offered by the Auto-Ordnance Corporation during the 1920's, World War II U.S. and British army designs, and adaptations of silencers developed after the war. None of these efforts was particularly successful because the designs were not engineered into the gun. This book presents some historical Thompson silencer information and considerations, but is primarily a design manual for a highly effective suppressor to fit the Thompson Submachine Gun. Manufacturing drawings are included for every part of the suppressor. This information is intended to be of special interest to Thompson enthusiasts. Those who also possess the proper state and federal licenses and permits, which would enable them to fabricate a suppressor legally, can do so with this design information. Richardson, soft back, 25 pages, 8 ˝" x 11", (Autographed on request.)
