At last, I have manged to complete the Thompson M1A1 Replica plans. they are available at the Replica Firearms Page on my site – Thompson Machine Gun Replica
The project requires that you are proficient at welding and there is a fair amount of machine work to be able to complete the project to a high standard. The completed Replica will easily pass for the real thing to the layman and is ideal for use on military reenactments, as a prop or for cosplay.
The replica has moving internal parts with a working trigger. The working parts can be locked to the rear and released by the trigger to give the impression of a working weapon. The replica will not fire blanks or even chamber live ammunition. The barrel is solid aluminium with the ends bored out to a depth of 2″ to simulate the breech and muzzle.
