Product Description
The Thompson submachine gun, or Tommy gun developed an almost iconic status during the 20th century. It had an unusual beginning, for it was developed during the dying days of World War I as a 'one-man, hand-held machine gun'. With the police increasingly outgunned they too were forced to equip themselves with the Tommy gun.
