My M1A1 Thompson

[mossie]

This is my much loved,But used and abused Thompson,This has been used for various re-enactments.
It has been dropped,Thrown,Blown up and run over,I have had to replace the butt and the magazine,But she still keeps going.

Not sure what the markings are near the barrel,But I am sure someone on here will know.

Thanks for looking.

I hope the original poster hasn't been holding his breath...but this is a Savage-manufactured M1A1 with the FJA marking - the circled 'GEG' mark indicates George E Goll, an inspector assigned to Savage by Auto-Ordnance.

Thank you Martin.

Mossie, it could be an M1, later upgraded to A1 specs. Could you show a pic of the S/N and model designation?
