Auto-Ordnance teamed up with the engravers at Altered Arsenal to build something special for the Army's 250th birthday, and the result is one of the best looking Thompsons to come out of the factory in years. The American walnut stock and foregrip carry laser-engraved artwork tracing the Army soldier from the Revolutionary War all the way to the modern era, with a 250th Anniversary banner on both sides of the stock and a U.S. marking framed by stars on the horizontal foregrip. The metalwork gets the same attention. The upper receiver and barrel wear OD Green Cerakote, the lower is done in Coyote Tan, controls are finished in black oxide, and a gold anniversary banner on the right side of the receiver ties it all together. Look at the top of the receiver and you'll find detailing patterned after the Army dress uniform, right down to the gold buttons.
Strip away the commemorative work and this is still the classic steel-receiver M1 Thompson that Auto-Ordnance has been building for decades. It runs a 16.5 inch smooth barrel chambered in .45 ACP, feeds from stick magazines, and uses a blade front sight with a fixed battle rear, the same simple setup that worked in the 1940s. At 11.5 pounds it has the heft of the original, which means recoil from .45 ACP is barely a whisper. It ships with two stick mags, a 30 rounder and a 20 rounder, so you're set for a range session right out of the box.
Commemorative Thompsons tend to get snapped up fast, and this one honors a milestone that only comes around once. It works as a safe queen, a conversation piece, or a shooter you bring out for special occasions. Wartime history, hand-detailed artwork, and a functional carbine all in one package is a tough combination to beat, and the two-tone Cerakote will hold up far better than a bare blued finish if you do put rounds through it.
It's fully functional. Under the commemorative engraving is the same steel-receiver, semi-auto M1 Thompson that Auto-Ordnance builds as a standard model, chambered in .45 ACP with a 16.5 inch barrel. Plenty of buyers keep these in the safe, but it will run at the range just like any other TM1.
The walnut stock and foregrip are custom laser-engraved by Altered Arsenal with artwork showing the evolution of the Army soldier from 1775 to today, plus anniversary banners and a U.S. star motif on the foregrip. The metal gets a two-tone OD Green and Coyote Tan Cerakote treatment with a gold anniversary banner and dress uniform detailing on the receiver. Mechanically it's the same proven carbine as the standard model.
Yes, it ships with two stick magazines, one 30-round and one 20-round. It feeds from Thompson stick mags, so spares are easy to find if you want extras for range days.
Heavy in the hands but extremely soft on the shoulder. All that steel and walnut soaks up the recoil of the .45 ACP cartridge, so follow-up shots are quick and the whole experience is smooth. It's part of what makes these carbines such a blast at the range.
