			::This has already been discussed on reddit, for example. RIA is the Republican Irish Army, one of the first major buyers of Thompson (although initially only three were delivered due to these events). And given that in 1918 there were only two worked Thompsons in the whole world (more precisely, one - M1917 was prone to jamming), it is not difficult to calculate this. --[[User:Slon95\|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95\|talk]]) 11:27, 8 September 2021 (EDT)

			== Origin of Thompson's WWI myth ==

			So I'm kinda intrigued by this statement that you added to the Thompson page in the Thompson M1919 section (in [http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title=Thompson_Submachine_Gun&diff=1433264&oldid=1432631 this edit]):
			:''"The "WWI-myth" itself stems from the 1921 confiscation of a M1921 batch destined for RIA from the New York docks."''

			So this talk is about [http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title=PP-91_Kedr&curid=6372&diff=1368905&oldid=1368878 the note] you added on the PP-91 Kedr page. I'm going to say up front that I wish to apologize for the rather brash tone of my edit summary. With that out of the way, let's discuss the issue in a more calm and rational manner. This is what the note currently says:

			(20 and 30-round also aviable, but not welcome for use without plug, in terms of legislation)

			The English in this sentence is broken and hard to understand; the main issue here is the middle clause in this sentence, "...but not welcome for use without plug".
			* The first issue is what is "plug" referring to? I am guessing that the "plug" you are referring to here is a limiter on the magazine restricting its capacity down to 10 rounds?
			* The second issue is the "...but not welcome for use...". Is this part supposed to mean "...cannot be used without (the magazine limiter / 'plug')"?

			If you answer these two questions, and maybe elaborate a little bit more, I can help you fix the grammar in this sentence. --[[User:Wuzh\|Wuzh]] ([[User talk:Wuzh\|talk]]) 10:09, 12 September 2020 (EDT)
