Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally invented by Brig. General John T. Thompson in 1918, the Thompson Submachine Gun was envisioned as a "one-man, hand-held machine gun" that would bring an end to WWI's entrenched stalemate. The air-cooled, recoil-operated, magazine-fed "trench sweeper" weighed less than 16 pounds (when equipped with a 50-cartridge magazine) and could be used for both automatic and semi-automatic fire. Although the weapon debuted after WWI came to an end, the Thompson was quickly adopted by the Marine Corps, FBI, and by the general public - including by organized crime. During the Prohibition Era the "Chicago Piano" or "Chicago Typewriter" became a mafia favorite due to its high rate of fire and large magazine capacity. During WWII, the "Tommy Gun" was widely fielded by the U.S. armed forces, with over 1.5 million produced by the end of the conflict. The main models in production were the M1928A1, M1 and M1A1. Originally published in December, 1941, this basic field manual was standard issue for U.S. Army personnel. It features a chapter on weapon mechanics with sections on weapon assembly and disassembly, care and cleaning, spare parts, functioning, safety precautions, and a primer on ammunition. It also includes chapters on technique of fire, marksmanship from a moving vehicle, marksmanship against air and ground targets, and advice to instructors. This high-quality reproduction presents the manual in its entirety. Although slightly reformatted, care has been to preserve the integrity of the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.' The war ended before these first prototypes could be shipped to Europe but once the M1921 Thompson formally entered production it was used by the criminals working in Chicago and New York during the 1920s. With the police increasingly outgunned they too were forced to equip themselves with the Tommy gun. It quickly came to be used in Hollywood films, and by the end of the 1930s it would have probably faded from view had history not intervened. With the entry of the US into World War II there was an urgent need to equip and arm a force of epic proportions; the Thompson submachine gun began a second career as part of the US Army. It also became the weapon of choice for the small band of British commandos as they conducted a number of daring raids against the heart of occupied Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of a series of Second World War booklets on weapons intended for the training of recruits, this treatise is dedicated to the venerable military type Thompson .45 calibre submachine gun. This model (M1928) had provisions for box and drum magazines. It had a Cutts compensator, cooling fins on the barrel, employed a delayed blowback action and its charging handle was on the top of the receiver. The booklet describes the correct loading and unloading of the gun; the action of the firing mechanism; the magazines; the action of gases and the cooling system and notes on how to deal with jams and stoppages. The Thompson was used in World War II in the hands of Allied troops as a weapon for scouts, non-commissioned officers (corporal, sergeant and higher) and patrol leaders, as well as commissioned officers, tank crewmen and soldiers performing raids on German positions. In the European theatre, the gun was widely utilised in British and Canadian commando units, as well as in the US Army paratrooper and Ranger battalions, where it was issued more frequently than in line infantry units because of its high rate of fire and its stopping power, which made it very effective in the kinds of close combat these special operations troops were expected to undertake. Military Police were fond of it, as were paratroopers, who 'borrowed' Thompsons from members of mortar squads for use on patrols behind enemy lines. The gun was prized by those lucky enough to get one and proved itself in the close street fighting that was encountered frequently during the invasion of France. Through Lend-Lease, the Soviet Union also received the Thompson, but due to a shortage of appropriate ammunition, its use was not widespread. The Thompson submachine gun was also known informally as the 'Tommy Gun', 'Street Sweeper', 'Annihilator', 'Chicago Typewriter', 'Trench Broom', 'Chicago Submachine', 'Chicago Piano', 'Chicago Style', 'Chicago Organ Grinder', 'Drum Gun', 'the Chopper', 'the Tommy Boy' or simply 'the Thompson', and is one of the most well-known and recognised firearms in history.
