#Auto ordnance thompson stick mag full
Here is the Pics of Original Thompson Mags that have had the holes modified so the mag catch on a semi auto will work,They have been elongated to an oval shape,I use these on my West Hurley that's about a 70,s era i think it is.īottoms of Full Auto mags for the Thompson Good grief! The above issues just don't seem to happen with Bridgeport Thompsons or USGI Thompsons. The metal was stamped poorly, but a little stoning opened up the outlet and it ran fine. The outlet was too tight as compared to mine. He was shooting his, which ran fine with sticks, but jammed with his L drum. Apparently they run much better when the internals are USGI. My Thompson is an early West Hurley, when Numrich had lots of USGI parts on hand. All the other internals were surplus USGI (thanks God). And bought a USGI sear to replace the the one marked AOC, which was made by Numrich. Took it all apart again, decided to replace all spring, especially the seat spring, which was distorted. It would often run on (three to five rounds) after releasing trigger on full auto. Several problems popped up - it would often double or triple when set to semi. Took it out yesterday to check out the functions. If you can PM some pictures that would be nice.Ī little off topic, but I just received (after waiting 6 months for the BATFE approval) my 1928 West Hurley Thompson, full auto. The three that do work seem to have had the whole filed. I have 6 mags and three lock in no problem. Is Your Thompson a West Hurley or one of the modern remakes made Today,I have a West Hurley 1927 and am very familiar with those,Are you using a real surplus stick mag or are you using one that's been modified by elongating the mag hole to make the original work,if the modification is not done correctly it will cause the bolt to skip over the round and not pick it up,Ill be more than happy to help if you will provide some pictures of the mags. Also the bolt slides all the way back no problems when it's just the bolt in the receiver. Once it gets here, I will try the snap caps again. It does look to long to me.Īnother member sent me the measurements on their hammer and mine is too long. Get the model# and go to the Auto-Ordnance web site and check if the hammer is wrong. Put it in the receiver and slide it checking for problems. Look for signs of interference along the sides and back. The NFA paperwork lists "Auto-Ordnance" as the manufacturer, and "28AC" as the model.Take a look at the bolt. This machine gun is currently on a Form 3 for easy transfer. This fully transferable Thompson sub machine gun will come with one original Auto-Ordnance Bridgeport Type L 50rd drum magazine, a 30rd stick magazine, and an original WWII era US marked military sling for the Thompson. The stock buttplate was also finished in this same manner, and shows some wear in the finish, as well. There are few spots of wear noted in this finish on top of the barrel (where it was probably stored) and a few marks under the Cutts compensator (see photo). It does appear that the original blued barrel (which was common to the M1928AC with a parkerized receiver) was at some point coated in a gray finish to better match the parkerized receiver. The exterior parkerization of the metal is also in great, age-appropriate condition, with only minor cosmetic surface handling marks in the metalwork. The horizontal forend and stock are in excellent condition, as well, with no cracks, scratches, or chips, and only a few minor surface dings that are so small they do not show up on photos well enough to document. The wood furniture is also in superb condition with only a single minor chip noted on the bottom of the pistol grip (see photo).

The metalwork is all in excellent condition, and notes no marks other than normal handling marks in the finish consistent with the age of the firearm. Mechanically, all mechanisms function approriately and there is only limited wear noted on the internal parts.
