If I were to ever buy one gun, it would be the M1A1 Thompson. Why? Because WW2 guns are the best. And it's my favorite gun of all time. One exactly like the picture, not one with the pin on top.I'm at dinner but this came to mind.How hard is it to find an original, non replica? How expensive do they go for? Also, I know literally nothing about gun laws and such, and I can only assume I'm to young to own one legally, but when would I be able to get one (not saying I will). At 18? I live in Florida.

Original?oy vey, $20,000 is what you'll see on a price tag. Purchasing wise, you have to do a shit load of paperwork, wait a few months, get it approved by the police, and pay a $200 tax stampJust take the easy way out and buy a semi-auto reproduction for a $1,000 or sohttp://www.auto-ordnance.com/Firearms/Thompson-T1.asp

You like WW2 guns? Would you get an M1 garand too?

Each volume book wise runs from $100 to $200. Fuck me sideways.

Autos will just waste your money faster, but Thompsons usually run at $2k, yes?
