It's a 12 class firearm, if you have the right papers you buy used. - dan

Of course. I'm old and crusty.

Well crusty,

There is some dude who has been to the last several Edmonton shows who has 2 12(5) class Tommies (the uber ghey long barreled ones)

damned if i know how to contact him though....

Wolverine used to carry the semi-auto one's back before they were prohibited. I think around $1100 and they were made by someone with a name like Auto Ordinance.

Us younger guys never got a chance to experience the good'ol days...

 

[t-star]

if all you want to do is shoot one, tse had the "commando" arms clone available for rent- haven't cked the rental pool in a while

 

[Deckard]

Thanks Klunk. If he appears again, please PM me.

Allen Lever had auto-ordnance make up 20" barreled Model 1927A1's and sold them. The Canadian Government just took a copy of the US Government restricted import gun list and did more....they wanted some of them "turn in for destruction". It wasn't original!
Model 1921Thompson's were the original restricted submachine guns in Canada. There are a few of them with collectors and the rest are at Police Dept's, Vancouver City Police has some of the ADNAC Mining Company 1921,1921/28,and 1928 guns from Trail BC.

Closest thing I can think of that actually shoots <something> would be airsoft ... Although it's a bit of a grey area to figure out if it fits the definition of "replica".

For anyone interested the Thompson clone that t-star is taking about is the ' Volunteer arms commando mark 45', See link: http://jtjersey.com/Mark45/Mark45.html
I have no idea if it was prohibited or not, as it uses no major Thompson parts and was not call a Thompson. TSE one broke years ago and you can no longer get part.

Looks like the Commando Arms Model V that AstorArms has listed as a prohib for sale on their website.

 

[Deckard]

The only problem being the astorprice.

 

[fnrob]

Ba-zing!!!!

Yeah, and do they EVER change their website listings?

 

[Klunk]

The only problem being the astorprice.

....and the astro-gag reflex....

 

[Deckard]

By that you mean the fugly appearance of that clone I take it. I might go for it at $400 though.

Deckard I think the guy that Klunk is refering to from the Edmonton shows might be Jim from Sebarms. IIRC his asking prices might be a little high, but he also isn't selling cheap knockoffs. Considering he has brought them to a few shows now, he might be somewhat flexible on the price. Pm me for his #.

Looks like you should be pneumatic shooting #6 shot at a red star with it.

Yep, I agree, save up your money and buy a REAL Thompson

Prohib because it looks sort of kinda vaguely like a real Thompson, which some asshat Lieberal bureaucrat saw a picture of, wet his panties, and then decided the future of those particular firearms in Canada. Thanks Liberals. Keep it in mind when you vote. - dan
