An in-depth study of the
famous Thompson submachine gun. Fielded by the United States and her allies
during World War II. This is the third printing (and last) of American Thunder;
the Military Thompson Submachinegun Guns. The concept of the Thompson
originated during World War I, by John T. Thompson. By the time the weapon was
designed and placed into production, the war had ended. Post war sales were
made to a few law enforcement agencies and corporations, but some ended up in
the hands of criminals, earning the gun a sinister reputation. Nearly twenty
years later, at the beginning of World War II, there was a desperate need for
weapons, and the Thompson was placed back in production. The submachine gun was
issued to U.S. and allied military forces and helped win the war.
