**COLT MODEL 1921A THOMPSON SUB MACHINE GUN (C&R).

SN 12962. .45 Cal. 10-1/2″ bbl. Model with vertical forend without Cutts compensator. Orig 1921 internal parts. This Colt Thompson currently has a mis-matched Auto Ordnance lower SN A.O.80492 but includes the orig stripped lower which has evidence of welding damage. SN on this spare lower is clearly 12962. Left side actuator ear broken off. Buttstock never fitted with sling swivels but there is a carved solitary star about 1-1/2″ in dia. on right side of buttstock. Includes one 50 round drum magazine with “AUTO ORDNANCE CORP./NEW YORK N.Y. U.S.A./PATENTED JULY 27, 1920 DEC. 7, 1920/NO. 1150”. Mechanism functions smoothly when operated by hand, this weapon appears fully functional. PROVENANCE: The class III weapons formerly on loan to Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum. CONDITION: Overall finish and appearance is fine. 90% dull refinish, thinning at high points with some small amount of pitting underneath refinish in places. Does not appear that this firearm was buffed prior to refinish. Loss of finish where actuator meets receiver. Wooden parts very good with some wear, chips, scratches, occasional gouges and one significant 1/2″ chip on right side of buttstock 4″ from toe. Bore has very strong rifling with some slight pitting. Bolt face is extremely fine with crisp edges. Drum magazine has a parkerized refinish over fairly heavy pitting and includes a red ink lettering loading direction card. Matching SNed lower would be a worthwhile restoration project to bring this firearm back to a matching configuration. Colt manufactured Thompsons are always sought after and this is an opportunity to own a great machine gun classic. 4-51761 JWK2 (20,000-25,000) – Lot 1076
