Auto Ordinance Tommy Gun correct?
I highly recommend you DO NOT get one, atleast the aluminum receiver model anyway. The rear sight on mine hit me in the face the first time I shot it (20 rounds). I retightened the screws with red Loc-tite and shot it again. 20 more rounds and rear sight to the face again. Now the screw holes are stripped in the 1/8th of an inch they are tapped into the aluminum. Also the bolt hold open doesn't work now. A lot of drilling and grinding later, those are fixed. Now the 30 round stick mag doesn't feed right. The bullets are digging into the feed ramp. The aluminum has gouges in it from the mouths of the cases hitting it. A bunch of semi circles on the ramp. Tried to polish it with no luck fixing the problem.
The only good thing about it was the 100 round drum fed well the one time I used it. Ofcourse, I had to repaint it because it totally rusted up from sitting in my garage over night. That was my fault I guess.
The older versions are much better I hear. If you buy a steel receiver Tommy maybe you won't have near the headaches I did. I also hear that the aluminum versions wear out quickly. Steel bolt riding on aluminum, makes sense to me. I did not keep it long enough to find out. I had to sell it before I smashed it with a sledge hammer. I paid $1300 for it with the 100 round drum (have seen the same for $1800), but it was still a major rip off.
It is a good looking gun, an American Icon, but I was very disappointed in my gun.
