I did some work at a police department that has two Thompson 1928M1's from the '20's bank robbery era that are fully automatic with 100 round drums. The police chief brought them out to show me, handed me one. Heavy. Very heavy. Quality is incredible. They are or were thinking of selling them. Have been offered $40,000 a piece for them by real collectors but turned them down. Says they take them out to a range once or so per year and fire them off. Because they are fully automatic, he said that it takes a Class 4 license to own or be in possession of them, which I've never seen listed (Class 4), but also never seen no such thing as a fully automatic listed as can be owned either. Anyway, he says that ATF inspectors show up at least once per year to inspect them, and that they BETTER BE THERE. What I wouldn't give to have one .45LC.
Somebody else, a contractor near me was tearing down a home found one buried in the walls from the same era and notified the ATF. That was the end of that gun. They confiscated it.
