The Tommy Gun Returns

May 28, 2008 8:10 am

Auto-Ordnance Thompson 1927A-1 Model TA5 .45ACP Pistol

The classic Thompson 1927’s are back from Auto-Ordnance, this time being sold as a “lightweight deluxe pistol”. The TA5 sports a 10.5 inch barrel and the classic 50 round drum magazine, chambered in .45 ACP. 10 and 30 round stick magazines are available as well as the heavy-weight 100 round drum. From the specs, this looks to be a close remake of the classic Thompson in inner workings and even includes the classic walnut furniture. A very pretty piece of hardware.

Is they are releasing this as a ‘deluxe pistol’, I am wondering if it will have an adapter to attach an optional rear stock for this. Very sexy. I have always wanted one of these. Getting a repro may be the only way.

Knowing the tremendous recoil of the stock version, i can just not imagine how this one would be controllable in full auto.

The most uncontrollble weapon of the world. They could at least put a grip. Or maybe it’s semi auto only.
