Product Description
Thompson M1928A1 Demilitarized Receiver: Marked TOMMY GUN: Everything Else. Very Rare Original Item: Very early in its history, the Thompson submachine gun came to be known as the Tommy Gun in the press and the popular mind. When production recommenced shortly before WW 2, the Auto Ordnance Corporation decided to register the phrase Tommy Gun as a trademark of the company. IMA has found a very few M1928A1 receivers marked TOMMY GUN manufactured by Savage Arms. To meet legal requirements for a registered trade mark, the mark must appear on the product, so a few Thompson M1928 and M1928A1 receivers were marked TOMMY GUN, on top of the receiver not far from the Thompson bullet logo.
