I wonder if someone could bring one of these up as they’re built on brand new semi auto receivers.

Closest to it in Canada would probably be a ruger 10/22 put into a thompson body kit.
 
I wouldn't care if it was an unreliable pos I would still love one just because!!
I asked IRG about these a year ago and they said they cant bring them here , like was said above its a "named" prohib
total bs if you ask me :(

Auto Ordnance builds junk anyways. If you brought up a Tommy Gun it probably won't work. Their M1 Carbine I bought they made was a steaming pile of excrement.

Obviously you've never owned or fired a Auto Ordnance Thompson .

It never missed a beat until the Liberals placed it under house arrest .

They already did that (in the '70s?) The 1927A1 was built on a newly designed semi-auto receiver and the manufacturer went to great pains to satisfy the ATF that no full-auto parts would fit. It looked kind of funny because it had a long (18"?) barrel to avoid the American short-barrelled-rifle rule. They even made a version for the Canadian market with a 19" barrel to make it non-restricted. They couldn't fool the Canadian government, though. They banned all Thompson "variants". They also specifically banned the 1927A1 by name. While they were at it, they also banned the .22 rimfire look-alike by name.

Presumably. the same thing is going to happen to all MP40, MG34, Soumi, and other look-alikes the next time they get around to making up a list of new prohibs. It's already in the process of happening to the M16 look-alike called the AR15.
 
Pretty sure the thompson is prohibited by name just like ak's, fal's, g3's etc

The Auto Ordnance that built your Tommy gun is not the same Auto Ordnance that exists today. Just like today's Springfield Armoury and Armalite being nothing more than namesakes of the original companies.
