Product Description
The Thompson is often called the "gun that made the 20's roar", but it
was not the only reason for that saying. In fast cars with loads of
moonshine, 1920's bootleggers roared down country roads, evading the law
and delivering white lightning to speakeasies. Lawmen raced after the
motor bandits, wielding Tommy Guns and 1911s. It was not long before
Hollywood depicted these duels on the big screen. The Roaring 20's
blazed a trail into American pop culture and history.
Auto-Ordnance's
latest custom guns commemorate the era with the "Bootlegger" Thompson
and 1911. Each gun is artfully engraved with depictions of 1920s autos,
newspaper print, wanted posters, and historical images from the time.
The
Thompson barrel is marked "Speakeasy". The 1911 slide and Thompson
receiver are engraved "Bootlegger Prohibition Edition", and "Proof
Tennessee Moonshine". Beautiful scrollwork covers the American Walnut
wood furniture, and sections of the steel. The finish is distressed
Burnt Bronze Cerakote with a clear coating overlayed. The wood furniture
is also distressed and then stained. The Thompson features a 16.5"
barrel, 20 round stick, and 50 round drum magazines. The 1911 features a
5" barrel, and one seven round magazine. Both guns are chambered in .45
ACP.
