@Bmont8030 you shouldn't use those terms buddy...Lot of people take that offensive (I know because I'm japanese). Next time, at least say the entire word and not those.
@ghostgoul007 Oh so i can't speak unless i'm Japanese? Why the hell should you get to speak? Unless you're well into your 50-60's (which would be extremely awkward on your part) you wouldn't know either. If the word offends you, go cry in the corner. Got it ya Jap?
@WhatssSoFunny 1) I have to say that you're one of the most pathetic person I have ever heard in my life. 2) If you're not japanese, how would you know if it's offensive or not? You're saying that I'm a pussy for taking the word "jap" offensivly, when you clearly don't know what it feals like to be called a "jap" when you're japanese.. Obviously you're just another one of those racist little bastards. 4) I don't even want to talk to a childish little racist bastard like you. Get blocked.
@ghostgoul007 If you are going to cry in the corner over a WW2 reference (Comment was "THe Japs know that weapon well") then maybe you shouldn't be on a site like this. You don't have to be Japanese to know that that is offensive idiot! I know Nigger is an offensive word but i'm not black. Got it ya Jap?
@Dylanmg420 Are you asking what it is or the origin? It's supposed to offend white people, but it really doesn't. It's origin was from the crack of the whip during the slavery times.
@WhatssSoFunny As all ways, your stupidity towards the subject is so retarded. In fact, it's starting to get funny. But it all comes to one thing, it's personal preference if it's racist or not. I was telling the other guy that MAJORITY of the japanese people are going to take it offensivly. Obviously you don't understand that. But, it was funny reading all of your idiotic comments. I'm done with the subject, fuck you and have a nice day.
@ghostgoul007 No it's not your preference if something is racist or not. That's not how racism works idiot. You could say anything against you is racist. Got it ya Jap?
@WhatssSoFunny lol your comments always amaze me. You cound call a black person "nigger" but if they don't feel offended, it's technically not racist. Are my words too complicated for you? btw "Got it ya jap" is my favorite quote now because your retardedness is just so funny. Even if your words are correct, that means the term "jap" IS in fact racist. Do you understand this contradiction? You're probably just some fat white man with no job, trying to start something on the internet.
@ghostgoul007 And now your true identity comes out! ok Jap, i'll lay this on to you so you're chinky eyes can read it- I CAN SAY JAP AS MUCH AS I WANT. IF YOU ARE GOING TO CRY OVER THE INTERNET BECAUSE I SAID JAP AS A WW2 REFERENCE THEN YOU NEED TO DELETE YOUR YOUTUBE ACCOUNT AND GO BACK TO PLAYING CANDYLAND AND WATCHING DORA. GOT IT YA JAP?!
@WhatssSoFunny LOL that was the funniest comment I read in a long time. Did something bad happen to you or something? Did one of your family member die or something? Either that, or you need to mature up and grow some balls. I took the term offensivly, many people take the word offensivly, and the guy in the first comment said sorry. In fact, that should've been the end to this subject. But you sir, started bitching about it. So tell me, who's the mature one now? Have a nice day sir.
@ghostgoul007 Oh and the part about me being a fat unemployed white guy, damn you know me SOOO well. Keep in mind, it was unemployed white guys who eraticated the stench of Jap filth during WW2.
@WhatssSoFunny lol and how many years ago was that? We're talking about the the term "jap" here, and not what happened in WW2. Yes it was the unemployed white guys who bravely served in the military during WW2, but does that mean YOU did? Just because they did, does not make YOU a good person. lol you are one sad sad man. btw, you forgot your "got it ya jap?" quote.
@WhatssSoFunny lol you're changing the subject. I know that WW2 is the time where the term "jap" originated. If you had the comprehensive knowledge, you can figure out that I was saying that this topic has nothing to do with the who served in the US military. If you think unemployed is a good thing, then I feel sorry for your parents. Thanks for saying "got it ya jap" because that made my day.
@ghostgoul007 wow you're stupid- I never sais i am unemployed. You said "we're talking about the tern Jap not WW2 BUT they are intertwined. I'm currently in college, what do you do ya stinky JAP?
@WhatssSoFunny From what I'm seeing, you're saying that unemployed is a good thing. I never asked if you're in college or not. Is this thing too dificult for you? You forgot your "Got it ya jap"
@WhatssSoFunny You know, Japanese soldiers are one of the strongest soldiers during WW2. America won because they were richer, had more supplies, and far more men than Japan. In equal terms, America would have lost in only a few years. But this topic doesn't even have anything to do with our subject. I bet you don't even have the balls to join the military.Try saying that to a japanese solider, I will garantee you that you will get your ass kicked.You forgot your "got it ya jap" quote again.
@WhatssSoFunny lol you need to learn some history. 90 years old? Your brain you don't have once again failed you.You know Japan has soldiers now too right? Or are you that stupid? And I never asked if you were in ROTC or not.Holy crap you're so brave you're in ROTC omg you're so tough, yeah, right.You know in the beginning of WW2 United States were getting their ass kicked right? But after the battle in Midway,Japan ran out of supplies and started getting their ass kicked.Thnx for the quote.
1. I was referring to Vets of WW2 i guess you're too stupid to connect the dots.
2. No Japan doesn't have an army today, get your facts right.
3. If, again you weren't an idiot, you would know that once i finish ROTC i get commissioned as an Officer.
4. Is that right? Last time i checked the US never "got their ass kicked". Japan was too stupid with it's expansion and thought their "yamamoto" or some shit of a race was superior to all others.
@WhatssSoFunny lol when I was talking about soldier, I was referring to the men in JSDF. That's Japan's military. I never said anything about army, I said they have soldiers. It's called JSDF (Japanese Self Defence Force). They're a military organization, established after WW2, and still exists today. They protect Japan from the communist countries like China and North Korea, but it's not classified as an army. I guess you're too much of a racist bastard to even research about Japan.
@ghostgoul007 Funny because i a;ready knew that that's why i said it. You last sentence makes me wonder if you're retarded. Congrats you can use google, you pathetic waste. I'm done with dirt like u.
@ghostgoul007 btw, you said you were in college,but you replied to my comment in 12.Do you really go to school or have a job at least?Either that or you replied while you were in college,which is pretty stupid considering how much work college gives you.I'm tired of arguing with a person like you.This subject was over 4 days ago.I'm ignoring your replies now.Good luck in the army, at least you're serving the country unlike the video game nerds who just plays war games all day. Have a nice life
@ghostgoul007 If you honestly get offended by someone openly saying Jap, even on the internet, then you should re-evaluate yourself. Check if there are a set of nuts under your pea-shooter.
@WhatssSoFunny You may not know, but after WW2 and for about another 20 years, japanese people were reffered to as "japs" and was treated very cruelly. The term may not sound offending, but it brings back all of the awful memories. So next time, learn to speak, and don't say those things unless you are japanese too. And btw, I DO have a set of nuts, but I think you need to get your head checked up.
There is no such thing as recoil operated, blowback is the bolt sliding back after each shot. Recoil is the "climbing" as said in the video. The reason they changes the gun because a 45 ACP doesn't have enough fire power and range cababilites.
A big reason they didn't use the drum in the war was because of the weight. Those weighed about 25-30lbs fully loaded. Plus the Thompson Chicago Typewriter was the civilianized one you could get through mail order for around $150 bucks hence why every gangster had one.
@bargunner18 All you need to do to make it accept drums is make some slits is the receiver under the ejection port. Every little cut in metal made on a gun costs money. The slits for attaching the drum magazine were removed on the M1/M1A1 to cut costs during the war. That's probably why the charging handle was moved to the side too because when it was on top the charging handle was cut through the middle like the one on an UZI so you could aim down the sights.
@AK107DX Last I remembered the M1 was the first model and had the charging handle on the side, the civilianized versions were designed with the top mount charging handle.
I thought you had to pull the bolt back to take the magazine out. Maybe I'm thinking of the 1928A1 which has the bolt on top rather than side mounted.
@ammobobguy See, you would come to this conclusion because you base all of your knowledge on games like CoD. If you knew anything about weapons or the military, you would know that a SMG is defined as: a compact, medium to light weight, automatic pistol round-firing weapon. 95% defined as being an automatci weapon designed to fire pistol rounds. It has nothing to do with the way it looks, how fast it shoots, or how much recoil it has.
@WACstudios187 It was too heavy, too expensive to make, and the army wanted to change over to 9mm Parabellum rounds for its submachine guns and pistols.
@Calriec It's not that it was too heavy (maybe compared to today's SMG standards) its weight actually added to the fact of being the best SMG to use during combat, because the heavier the weapon, the lighter the recoil. Also because it was designed to fire .45 caliber pistol rounds, one of the largest pistol rounds, that produced higher velocity for better accuracy-to-range shots.
I was playing world at war and I said I was going to use the M1A1 Thompson and some dumbass said. Its not M1A1 that's the carbine. I hate when people think they know all about guns form call of duty.
Blowback is a system of operation in self-loading firearms in which the bolt uses the energy resulting from the cartridges propellant charge ignition. Recoil usually describes the backward momentum of a gun, or parts of it, when a shot is fired. However there are guns that use this mode of operation as well. If you want to learn more about it search for Recoil operation on Wikipedia.
@frankss4 They were never illegal in the first place. It just depends on whether it is on the civilian market or not. You can own one legally but it'll cost you your wifes birthday gift/ night out!
I´m a great fan of this gun and i would really much like to own a REAL FUNCTIONAL one. Where do i buy one??? I cant find any places, can someone help me?
@hvaskerderfordig If you're in the US and want to own one legally then you have to wait for someone to sell theirs. These weapons are registered with the BATF and no new devices can be registered (which means that all the machine guns that can be owned are owned by someone). You can check gunsamerica or other auction websites for "Class III weapons".
What? I see an M1A1 Thompson with a drum magazine? I thought, and I've heard, that the model was made only for box magazines..? And that the earlier version, the M1928A1 Thompson could take both box and drum magazines..
@samvansomething yeah, but I think it sounds too hard, don't think he have modified the gun itself to use drum mag.. Anyway, for me it's a mystery cuz I've read everywhere that this M1A1 thompson was not able to use a drum mag.. The receiver is slightly different than an M1928A1 thompson, which indeed could use both box and drum mags.. Anyway great gun! :D
That is a myth, Tracy hill is and expert on Thompsons. On page 822 of his latest book here is a quote Type "C: drum magazine
The type "C" magazine will not function properly on the U.S Navy model and therefore must not be used with the U.S Navy model Hill write a reply Interestingly this is really not the case and a "C" drum in good condition will function quite in a model 1928.
However by the time the initial run of john's "C" drums had been exhausted it had already been decided that due to it's unwieldily bulk and heavy weight and propensity for jamming no more "C" drums would be produced, and this misleading statement on the card was an attempt by auto ordinance to head off further demand.
Lol, this is painful to watch.

3. Don't have the balls to join oooh, that's why i'm in ROTC, idiot.
4. They were one of the strongest? If one had to rate their performance out of every major nation, they would be second to last, before Italy.

"How can you compare an M1 garand with an M1A1 thompson?"
M1 Garand fires a .30-06 and Thompson fires a .45 caliber.
Garand is semi-automatic, Thompson is fully automatic.

@TheZimpiko28Project What's the difference between recoil and blowback?
63gstone 9 months ago
@63gstone
Blowback is a system of operation in self-loading firearms in which the bolt uses the energy resulting from the cartridges propellant charge ignition. Recoil usually describes the backward momentum of a gun, or parts of it, when a shot is fired. However there are guns that use this mode of operation as well. If you want to learn more about it search for Recoil operation on Wikipedia.

@frankss4 They were never illegal in the first place. It just depends on whether it is on the civilian market or not. You can own one legally but it'll cost you your wifes birthday gift/ night out!

Yeah, it's a really cool and fun gun, but in warfare; not very useful. A 45. submachine gun isn't very good.

jgtheman84 1 year ago
@hvaskerderfordig If you're in the US and want to own one legally then you have to wait for someone to sell theirs. These weapons are registered with the BATF and no new devices can be registered (which means that all the machine guns that can be owned are owned by someone). You can check gunsamerica or other auction websites for "Class III weapons".

What? I see an M1A1 Thompson with a drum magazine? I thought, and I've heard, that the model was made only for box magazines..? And that the earlier version, the M1928A1 Thompson could take both box and drum magazines..

@Spyflugan91 Maybe its customized? The guy did say he added paddles to the mag release, maybe he did more.
samvansomething 1 year ago
@samvansomething yeah, but I think it sounds too hard, don't think he have modified the gun itself to use drum mag.. Anyway, for me it's a mystery cuz I've read everywhere that this M1A1 thompson was not able to use a drum mag.. The receiver is slightly different than an M1928A1 thompson, which indeed could use both box and drum mags.. Anyway great gun! :D

That is a myth, Tracy hill is and expert on Thompsons. On page 822 of his latest book here is a quote Type "C: drum magazine
The type "C" magazine will not function properly on the U.S Navy model and therefore must not be used with the U.S Navy model Hill write a reply Interestingly this is really not the case and a "C" drum in good condition will function quite in a model 1928.

mansonjolly 1 year ago
However by the time the initial run of john's "C" drums had been exhausted it had already been decided that due to it's unwieldily bulk and heavy weight and propensity for jamming no more "C" drums would be produced, and this misleading statement on the card was an attempt by auto ordinance to head off further demand.
