xausa showing up "in country" with a chopper in his hands does NOT surprise me one little bit!!

And with RIPP...yes, thank you for your service!!!!

As for WW2 Thompson, I've read that most of them went to the bottom of the Atlantic, having been on-board freighters sunk by the U-boot service of the Kriegsmarine.

A great reference to the overweight Tommy-gun is found in Spencer-Chapman's classic and famous THE JUNGLE IS NEUTRAL where he cites the thing nearly drove him and his mates INSANE during their infamous 14-day trek thru the jungle where they nearly starved, lost and bewildered and driven looney by the weight of the thing. Tempted to dump them, they...

I've never shot one, but I did own a pair of Stemple .45 cal submachine guns and really, what is "funner" to shoot than a 45 burpgun!
