**AUTO ORDNANCE M1A1 THOMPSON SUBMACHINE GUN MFG IN BRIDGEPORT (C&R).

SN 849107. Cal. 45 ACP, bbl 10-1/2″. This M1A1 Thompson has a Lyman adjustable rear sight riveted to the upper receiver with brass rivets. The lower assembly is not a match to the upper based upon the color of the bluing and the texture of the milling and it has a white line recoil pad fitted to absorb recoil. Bridgeport address on right side of receiver markings partially buffed away during the refinishing process of the upper. Receiver is cracked just at the rear of the cocking handle slot on the right side running perpendicular to the bore line across the top of the receiver about halfway. It is repairable, but gun will fire as is without any further work. This lot includes one 30-round Seymour magazine. Bolt moves smoothly within receiver. This weapon appears fully functional. PROVENANCE: The class III weapons formerly on loan to Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum. CONDITION: Overall finish and appearance is near excellent where refinished, over 95% lustrous blue on receiver until bbl. Bbl end is mostly devoid of finish with maybe 10% remaining on the non-finned areas. Wood of forend, handgrip and buttstock is of an attractive brown color with handgrip being of a lighter color brown. Bore has worn lands with some pitting in the grooves, particularly near the muzzle. Gun presents just fine when viewed from the left side and is in a fireable condition as is. A skilled, welder and finisher could repair the crack in the receiver. 4-51758 (8,000-12,000) – Lot 2001
