    Thompson Brochure 9Th Edition.Indd

    9th Edition Own A Piece Of American History Thompson Submachine Gun General John T. Thompson, a graduate of West Point, began his research in 1915 for an automatic weapon to supply the American military. World War I was dragging on and casualties were mounting. Having served in the U.S. Army’s ordnance supplies and logistics, General Thompson understood that greater fi repower was needed to end the war. Thompson was driven to create a lightweight, fully automatic fi rearm that would be effective against the contemporary machine gun. His idea was “a one-man, hand held machine gun. A trench broom!” The fi rst shipment of Thompson prototypes arrived on the dock in New York for shipment to Europe on November 11, 1918 the day that the War ended. In 1919, Thompson directed Auto-Ordnance to modify the gun for nonmilitary use. The gun, classifi ed a “submachine gun” to denote a small, hand-held, fully automatic fi rearm chambered for pistol ammunition, was offi cially named the “Thompson submachine gun” to honor the man most responsible for its creation. With military and police sales low, Auto-Ordnance sold its submachine guns through every legal outlet it could. A Thompson submachine gun could be purchased either by mail order, or from the local hardware or sporting goods store. Trusted Companion for Troops It was, also, in the mid ‘20s that the Thompson submachine gun was adopted for service by an Dillinger’s Choice offi cial military branch of the government. The U.S. Coast Guard issued Thompsons to patrol While Auto-Ordnance was selling the Thompson submachine gun in the open market in the ‘20s, boats along the eastern seaboard.
  • In the Norvinsk Region, a Special Economic Zone That Served As Both

    In the Norvinsk Region, a Special Economic Zone That Served As Both

    In the Norvinsk Region, a special economic zone that served as both a bridge between Russia and Europe as well as an excellent location for international companies to do business, a Britain-based corporation called Terra Group began conducting illegal experiments under the guise of creating “new, cutting edge technologies.” When the Russian government began to investigate Terra Group hired a PMC known as USEC (United Security) to act as their proxy private army to disrupt any investigations on their activities. With traditional methods exhausted and their hands legally tied the Russian government took a new approach and secretly created a PMC of their own, known as BEAR, who could successfully combat USEC while keeping their hands clean. It was soon discovered that some elements of the local government also had a hand in Terra Group’s activities by hiding their facilities and officially slating the new USEC forces as being used for “agricultural and mining security”. The Russian government began to believe that these activities were a genuine threat to national security and therefore invested a great deal of resources into BEAR. USEC and BEAR soon came to blows all across the region, the fighting intensifying to the point where a six month political scandal resulted in the involvement of the UN, who soon proved to be ineffective against either side. Eventually, the Norvinsk Region was evacuated by the majority of the civilians who had made their homes there due to the incredible danger that resulted from these battles. Yes, just most of them. Some were ​ ​ unable to leave in time, but some willingly stayed behind in the now mostly lawless area.
  • Lethal Legacies: Illicit Firearms and Terrorism in France

    Lethal Legacies: Illicit Firearms and Terrorism in France

    169 Lethal legacies: Illicit firearms and terrorism in France FRANCE Nicolas Florquin and André DesmaraisI This chapter analyses the illicit firearms market in France, the ways in which terror- ist networks have been able to access firearms, and the national policies that have been developed to combat (terrorist access to) the illicit gun market. Particularly since 2015, France has by far been the European country most affected by terrorist attacks involving the use of firearms. The use of fully automatic rifles in the January and November 2015 Paris attacks took an unprecedented human toll, with 147 deaths in those events alone.1 In 2015 the French authorities made 424 terrorism- related arrests, compared to 238 in 2014 and 225 in 2013.2 The recent attacks have created a push to reform the country’s intelligence and secu- rity forces in order to adapt to, anticipate and better respond to these threats.3 The gov- ernment has also identified a series of measures to tackle the issue of illicitly held fire- arms: the Ministry of the Interior’s National Action Plan was launched on 13 November 2015, just hours before the attack on the Bataclan theatre started.4 Yet these efforts can only rely on limited information on and analysis of the extent and nature of the illicit arms market in France, owing principally to the fact that levels of gun violence in France were previously moderate, if not low by international standards. This study constitutes an unprecedented effort to present and analyse data and information on illicit firearms and their acquisition by terrorist actors in France.

  • A 3D Tour Handgun History Dan Lovy

    A 3D Tour Handgun History Dan Lovy

    A 3D Tour Handgun History Dan Lovy I have a new toy, a 3D printer. I am amazed at the level of quality compared to its price. I'm printing out robots, cartoon characters and as many Star Trek ship models as I can find. The darn thing is running almost 24/7 and all my shelving is filling up with little plastic objects. First let me state that I am not a gun enthusiast. I own no fire arms and have been to a firing range once in my life. I believe that we have too many and they are too accessible, especially in the U.S. That having been said, I also have a fascination with the technological change that occurred during the industrial revolution. In some ways we are still advancing the technology that was developed in the late 19th and early 20th century. Fire arms, especially handguns, offer a unique window into all this. Advancement did not happen through increased complexity. A modern Glock is not much more complex than a Colt 1911. The number of parts in a pistol has been in the same range for nearly 200 years. Cars on the other hand gained complexity and added system after system. Advancement did not happen through orders of magnitude in performance. A 747 is vastly more capable than the Wright Flyer. One of the basic measures of a pistol is how fast can it shoot a bullet, that parameter has not really changed much, certainly not as much as the top speed of a car.
