(ii) Ensure that the ring of the cocking piece (15) is vertical and in alignment with the lower portion of the bolt lever. (iii) The ejector (16) must be on top of the bolt, and in line with the lower portion of the bolt lever. This will auto- matically position the extractor (17) correctly. Lay the bolt on the bolt way, taking care that it is perfectly flat. Push the bolt forward as far as it will go, then turn the bolt lever down to the right. It is important to ensure that it is com- pletely pressed down. The mainspring (20) should now be released by pressing the trigger (22), and the safety catch will be applied by rotating it to the rear. PLACING ON AND REMOVING THE MAGAZINE ACIG O Hold the magazine in the right hand, fingers on the right-hand side, thumb on the left, with the larger portion of the magazine to the rear and the magazine platform downwards.

  • 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.

  • The DIY STEN Gun
    The DIY STEN Gun Practical Scrap Metal Small Arms Vol.3 By Professor Parabellum Plans on pages 11 to 18 Introduction The DIY STEN Gun is a simplified 1:1 copy of the British STEN MKIII submachine gun. The main differences however include the number of components having been greatly reduced and it's overall construction made even cruder. Using the simple techniques described, the need for a milling machine or lathe is eliminated making it ideal for production in the home environment with very limited tools. For obvious legal reasons, the demonstration example pictured was built as a non-firing display replica. It's dummy barrel consists of a hardened steel spike welded and pinned in place at the chamber end and a separate solid front portion protruding from the barrel shroud for display. It's bolt is also inert with no firing pin. This document is for academic study purposes only. (Disassembled: Back plug, recoil spring, bolt, magazine, sear and trigger displayed) (Non-functioning dummy barrel present on display model) Tools & construction techniques A few very basic and inexpensive power tools can be used to simulate machining actions usually reserved for a milling machine. Using a cheap angle grinder the average hobbyist has the ability to perform speedy removal of steel using a variety of cutting and grinding discs. Rather than tediously using a hacksaw to cut steel sheet, an angle grinder fitted with a 1mm slitting disc will accurately cut a straight line through steel of any thickness in mere seconds. Fitted with a 2mm disc it can be used to easily 'sculpt' thick steel into any shape in a fraction of the time it takes to manually use a hand file.

Now I just have to pay off the Visa card! In June the Small Arms Factory at Lithgow celebrated its Centenary, it officially opened on 8 June 1912 and went on to manufacture over 640,000 SMLE rifles as well as Vickers and Bren guns, followed by SLRs and Steyrs, many of which have served our own Armed Forces.

  • The Owen Gun Story in Brief
    lllawarra Historical Society Bulletin 1st November, 1982 71 THE OWEN GUN STORY IN BRIEF Around July 1939, the late Evelyn (Evo) Owen, then a civilian, submitted the .22 submachine gun he had invented to the Army Inventions Board, Victoria Barracks, Melbourne. After study, they stated they had no interest in it nor in any submachine gun-the policy of the British Army until the outbreak of World War II in Sep­ tember 1939. Owen enlisted and when on final leave in September 1940 he was seconded to the Army Inventions Board with an offer from Lysaght's Works Pty. Ltd., Port Kembla, to assisst the A.I.B. in mak­ ing up a trial model for the testing of Owen's last ideas. After some months of delay, Owen was given leave of absence and came to Lysaght's with a personal request from Captain C. M. Dyer, the Sec­ retary of the A.I.B., that Lysaght's make a trial gun to Owen's ideas. Though the Army stated that the gun should be for .38 revolver ammunition-the only small ammunition projected for manufacture in Australia-none was available, so .32 was chosen. The gun with single line side magazine was made by Lysaght's in three weeks and successfully test fired by the end of January 1941. Owen returned to the A.I.B. and after further discussions came back to Lysaght's at the end of February 1941 with fresh ideas. These were for a gun in .45 calibre (standard with the Thompson) operating on the same principle as the .32 but with a completely different configuration.
