Does anyone have a clear picture of the supposed Colt New Service? It looks like it has shrouded ejector rod in the one picture, which would make it a S&W Mk.I Hand Ejector. - Never mind, took a good look at the front sight and it's definately a Smith.

==Thompson used==
The Thompson used is a M1928 but you can not tell that difference externally between a M1921AC and M1928AC. Both have compensators as designated by the AC code internally the Actuators and recoil springs were changed to reduce the rate of fire on the 1921 making it a 1928. -[[User:Phoenixent|phoenixent]] 21:24, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

I've changed the S&W Mk I Hand ejector to a Triple Lock. The story is set in 1931 in Illinois. Though there is a possibility that there would be a .455 Mk I Hand Ejector (with an aftermarket nickle plate) being used it's more plausible that it would simply be a .44 Special Triple Lock. However I decided to err on the cautious side and simply called it a Triple Lock. I'm not going to guess the caliber.

Discussion

Does anyone have a clear picture of the supposed Colt New Service? It looks like it has shrouded ejector rod in the one picture, which would make it a S&W Mk.I Hand Ejector. - Never mind, took a good look at the front sight and it's definately a Smith.

(Possibly) Modified Thompson Foregrip

I've noticed that the wooden vertical foregrip on Sullivan's Thompson appears to be shaved down slightly. Due to the weapon being repeatedly assembled and disassembled throughout the movie, would that somehow provide ease of attachment? Anyone know if the grip was modified for a reason or if it was just worn down or something? --Caldwellb734 (talk) 00:13, 29 December 2015 (EST)

M1921 Thompson - .45 ACP
