...for a narcissist who says he served in Vietnam, but hushed up when asked what unit he was with.
It also shoots pistol-sized ammo. YKW will undoubtedly have this hanging from a wall soon:

If shot a Thompson .45 yes a selective one. It dumps a 25 end load pretty easily. Heavier than it looks but quite handleable.

Did you buy one?

Not hardly. I'm thinking Harry would like one of these as a remembrance of his secret duties in
Vietnam.


Glad y'all brought up Viet Nam.
I'm recording and viewing a lengthy series on Maine PBS about that war.
Trouble is..it always ends the same with y'all cutting and running from that embassy roof in Saigon. Darn shame for those poor trusting folks who believed your bull****.



Thanks for your kind comments regarding your next door neighbor but
Canada isn't completely fault-free as far as Vietnam goes. Your country
didn't do any of the dirty work involving fighting and dying but your
industry manufactured and supplied the US military with some of the
tools and weapons used, including napalm and Agent Orange.

From Wiki:

"500 firms (Canadian) sold $2.5 billion of war materials (ammunition,
napalm, aircraft engines and explosives) to the Pentagon. Another $10
billion in food, beverages, berets and boots for the troops was exported
to the U.S., as well as nickel, copper, lead, oil, brass for shell
casings, wiring, plate armour and military transport. In Canada
unemployment fell to record low levels of 3.9%"

So, making a buck off of someone else's dirty work is ok with you?
