Thompson Submachine Gun, Model of 1928A1 with Lyman peep-sight, disassembled for maintenance or cleaning. This is one of the Thompson's that are send by the USA to the Soviet Union in WW-II according to the "Lend-Lease-Act" of 1941 and stored in the arsenal for over 60 years and rediscovered in 2006 or 2007. All Parts are original. It is still ready to fire, but according to the german gun-law it was alterated in 2007 by the luxembourg company LDT to Semi-Auto fire only: The lever for "Full Auto/Single" was removed and some other internal changes make it impossible to build it back to a full-auto gun. Only the Serial-No. of the gun on the photo was manipulated/changed due safety reasons. The gun was legally bought and registered according to the german gun-laws.
Thompson Submachine Gun, Modell 1928A1 mit Lyman-Diopter, zerlegt zur Wartung oder Reinigung. Diese Waffe ist eine der Thompsons, die im Zuge des "Lend-Lease-Act" von 1941 von den USA als Hilfslieferung im 2. Weltkrieg an die Sowjetunion geliefert wurden. 2006 oder 2007 wurden sie in den russischen Arsenalen wiederentdeckt. Alle Teile sind Original, die Waffe ist feuerbereit. Entsprechend dem deutschen Waffengesetz wurde sie 2007 von der luxemburgische Firma LDT zum Halbautomaten umgebaut und die "Full Auto"-Funktion deaktiviert: Der Feuerwahlhebel "Full Auto/Single" wurde entfernt und weitere interne Umbauten machen es unmöglich, die Waffe zu einem verbotenen Vollautomaten zurückzubauen. Die Serien-Nr. der Waffe wurde aus Sicherheitsgründen auf dem Foto geändert. Die Waffe wurde entsprechend dem deutschen Waffengesetz legal erworben und registriert.
