Auto Ordnance Thompson M1SB

I had an absolute blast this morning out on our range here at Mighty Mortgage Manor firing my Auto Ordnance M1SB. I put 150 rounds through it with only 1 Jam - on the first round and I think it was my fault. I made sure to smack the mags to seat the rounds against the back each time and never had another jam.

It is certainly not a pin-point weapon - a simple post front sight and non-adjustable rear. But, once I got the sight picture down I could consistently hit an 8X12 steel target at 75 yards.

The springs on these things are infamously tight. But, they should loosen up with a few hundred more rounds. I'm thrilled with it.

 

It's a fast loader for the stick magazines. Put 15 rounds in the tray and push them into the magazine. Repeat and the magazine is full - much faster than one round at a time.

 

Right on! I've always loved those Thompsons.
