Either your finger is on the trigger and no rounds are coming out because this is a prop, or your finger is on the trigger before you are ready to fire which is terrible trigger discipline, which means you probably don’t spend a lot of time around firearms and this one is not yours. NF.
Agreed, no matter how fake movies are, people are seen shooting thompsons from the hip all the time. It’s a pretty small caliber gun, so it really shouldn’t be that bad.
Since when is .45 a small caliber? I’ll give you that it has a small case, but the bullet is bigger than a .30-06. I’m guessing by your generalized statement that you actually know little to nothing about shooting or guns. Unfortunately, you did stumble upon the correct answer; the Thompson doesn’t have much recoil because of how heavy it is. One of the reasons it is so heavy is because of the big bullet that it shoots, and the fact that there are 50 of them in the drum.
The problem is not the recoil from one shot, but the recoil holding the trigger. No matter how small of a recoil the gun is, your sub-machine gun, such as a Thompson, will always heavily recoil when firing the gun automatically. For the whether this is real or not, I am not entirely sure. A new Thompson will run you about $16,000 and also most people don’t buy them because of all the licensing and permits you need to have to carry around. I’m calling bullshit on this one.
Yes. Trigger Discipline. Bcs 1 you’re a dumbass. Trigger discipline is the common knowledge anyone with any experience with firearms has. “Keep you’re finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.” It is actually one of four shooting safety rules they have in the Marines. Know what you’re talking about before you start talking shit.
its not full auto because its not a real Thompson but rather an auto ordinance reproduction, look at the barrel its 16″ long to make sure its not an NFA item. He’s clearly posing for the picture, either that or hes about to waste ammo spraying and praying from the hip.
just because you dress the part doesn’t mean you look the part. if you don’t match you look stupid and no self respecting sorositute would shack with someone who can’t even match colors.
I would make you a sandwich.

14 years ago at 9:28 pmWell said.
14 years ago at 9:38 pmor that he doesnt have it pressed into his shoulder so the recoil is going to be a bitch
14 years ago at 9:50 pmYeah that too.
14 years ago at 10:08 pmGoddamn yall are g.ay. Just shut up. Do you really think a fuji film is gonna catch a bullet or fire coming out of the muzzle? Trigger discipline?
14 years ago at 10:32 pmNo comment on whether or not this is real; but having fired an M249 from the hip I seriously doubt the recoil would be all that severe on a Thompson.
14 years ago at 10:40 pmAgreed, no matter how fake movies are, people are seen shooting thompsons from the hip all the time. It’s a pretty small caliber gun, so it really shouldn’t be that bad.
14 years ago at 10:53 pmThe recoil might not be that bad, but he won’t be “fucking shit up” when he’s shooting from the hip and missing everything he’s aiming for.

14 years ago at 8:30 amthis is stupid. the damn thing spits out pistol rounds anyways, any man worth his salt should be able to handle the recoil

14 years ago at 10:01 amNone of ya’ll even realize it’s a semi auto. Recoil will not be a problem at all.
14 years ago at 10:25 amNot every Thompson is semi-auto, dickhead. Any real fraternity man with a Thompson would have a fully automatic one, like myself.
14 years ago at 7:41 pmits not full auto because its not a real Thompson but rather an auto ordinance reproduction, look at the barrel its 16″ long to make sure its not an NFA item. He’s clearly posing for the picture, either that or hes about to waste ammo spraying and praying from the hip.
