Fox department store looked like an arsenal. I think they even had a flame thrower. The only thing they never carried was a toy land mine.

They didn't sell as well as hoped (the Army didn't buy many until WWII) so Auto Ordnance even had them for sale in drug stores.<br /><br />Now only available in single action, Thompson prices begin at $1,200. The 100 round drum magazine costs almost $600 all by itself and is prohibited in states that hate fun - of course those states are CA, HI, MA, MD, NJ and NY.<br /><br />http://www.auto-ordnance.com/PA-1TH_t.htmlsig94https://www.blogger.com/profile/11460563552989533923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-58685628758189698992011-02-08T18:45:31.811-05:002011-02-08T18:45:31.811-05:00Hasbro, as I recall, made a 30-cap clip.Hasbro, as I recall, made a 30-cap clip.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-12868939791165013812011-02-08T18:40:56.844-05:002011-02-08T18:40:56.844-05:00Why 10 shots?
