I've been wanting one of these ever since the first time I saw one, but it seems every time I get serious about it, the price has gone up another fifty bucks. Oh well, it's only money. (Too bad I don't have an extra ten grand laying around for the real thing.) I've got a drum and three more thirty round sticks on the way too. :)

Very very nice. Beck fell for the real thing at a couple of fund raiser machine gun shoots.
A long passed aquaintence had a tommy gun with 5 30rd stick ,a drum 100rd?,and a .45 pistol he brought back from the big war . It was for sale for the meagher sum of 3500.00$ back in 1994.
All in real good condition,they all had been rebuilt and then put away.
That fella knew as well as me they would be a boatload of trouble if .......
Now I wish I had have gotten them.
Congats on the new family member,Bobby
look like fun.:up: :up: :up:

I do now!
Now if it would only quit snowing and warm up a bit. It's been snowing for three days, and is supposed to continue for another two more at least.

I put Tommy on the scale tonight, and came up with:
W/no mag = 12 pounds even.
W/loaded 30 round stick, 230 grain ball = 13 pounds, 4 ounces.
W/loaded 50 round drum, 230 grain ball = 16 pounds, 10 ounces! :OMG:
