Talk:De Lisle Carbine

Petition to remove from "SMG" category

This weapon clearly does NOT fit the definition of a sub-machine gun. --HashiriyaR32 18:07, 15 July 2011 (CDT)

I just switched it to carbine. --Funkychinaman 18:35, 15 July 2011 (CDT)

Damn you I was going to do that. Evil Tim 18:43, 15 July 2011 (CDT)

Also switched the specs from metric to Imperial, since, let's face it, this was a weapon made in inches and pounds, not millimetres and kilos. Or the grand old days when England still used it's own measuring system. >:( Evil Tim 18:53, 15 July 2011 (CDT)

The US gets Imperial units and the UK gets Madonna. That's a trade I can live with. --Funkychinaman 00:14, 16 July 2011 (CDT)

Yeah, well we've got, um...Marmite. Yeah, that's right, we've got a strange spread made of yeast extract whose taste can only be described as "like marmite," and you can't have any. Um, so there. Evil Tim 00:46, 16 July 2011 (CDT)

You can't insult the English in written language, as you're writing in the English language. If you want to insult England in writing, do it in German. Alasdair.

Thompson mag compatible?

I read on the internet that the De Lisle was compatible with Thompson magazines. It only mentioned the 20-round one, but surely if it can fit the 20-round it can fit the 30-round as well? I know that part of the De Lisle's was adapted from a Thompson. That means you could fire 31 entirely silent rounds! Some military units don't contain that many soldiers! I now really want one. Does anyone know where I can purchase one? And I mean the vintage one, not the modern Valkyrie Arms representation. Even if the Thompson mag rumor is a myth.
