Check. Thanks a lot.
DeaconKC said:Just picked up a very modern 1911 by Para-Ordnance today. Had to compare it to my 1928 Argentine. Interesting in the similarities moreso than differences. Sights, the ability to be reliable with Hollowpoint ammo are truly the only major improvements except for the light rail. JMB had it right!
DeaconKC said:That is in very nice shape. Was it a vet bringback?
Problem is, it has to be late-style forearm only--put the vertical on it and it becomes an "AOW", which is an NFA toy prohibited in some states and requiring registration with ATF in the rest.Matt Crunk said:FYI . . Auto-Ordnance has just released a semi-auto "pistol" version of the classic 1927 A-1 Thompson SMG. Registering it as as a handgun allows for the original 10.5" barrel length without being classified a Class 3 firearm.
