Lead Times
We are currently 6+ months out on Thompson builds. While it could always be sooner, expect it to be 6 months at least. There is no option for having your work expedited.
ATF Approval
There is currently no approved design by the ATF for rewelding a Thompson into a semi-automatic closed bolt. I am currently in the process of getting this approval completed for the 1928 and M1 variants. Per the ATF, they can be sold without this approval, but we are doing it to give everyone piece of mind.
FRTs
The design we use to rebuild these Thompson has not been tested nor confirmed to work with any FRT on the market. If you want to have an FRT installed on it, that is not something we can confirm is doable nor is it a service we provide.
