Introduction: Knex Thompson
This is my knex Thompson shooting replica
(credits to the Dunkis for trigger)
stats:
range: 25-35 feet
durability:the stock is very flimsy but the body is really sturdy
power:barely dents cardboard
ROF:repeater (cock,shoot,cock,shoot)
ammo:gray connectors
pros:
very realistic
removable mag with mag release
comfortable handle
IMO most realistic Thompson on the site
cons:
flimsy stock
mag is slightly angled to either side
uses cut parts
uses a lot of pieces
Step 1: The Stock
Read the notes.
Step 2: Body and Handle
Step 3: Fore-grip
Step 4: Assembly
I do not have any pictures of the firing pin but it is just a black rod with a blue spacer, an orange connector and tape.You have to tie a string to through the loop or connect a yellow rod to the back of the orange connector and tape it.

This gun is really old and there are alot of things I could have made better, like the stock connection and ram, but I guess its pretty good looking. I might make a newer version soon though.

Don't thompsons have drum mags?
Reply 11 years ago on Introduction
There are two different versions of thompsons and this one doesnt have a drum mag the other kind also has different sites and a forward grip.
Reply 10 years ago on Introduction
ones a WWI version with the charging handle on top and WWII is with on the side, the forward grip & drum mag are attachments, they can have a normal wooden block or handle.

THe thompson never existed during WWI, the thompson was in developement during WWI and first came into production in 1921. You also cant attatch a forward grip to a WWII era Thompson.

well w/e but its an attachment for the gun
Reply 10 years ago on Introduction
No. I was trying to explain to you that they are manufactured with or without a vertical grip, and you cannot attatch one to it later on, therefore it is not an attatchment.

really? ive seen a video of someone replacing the grips on one, unless its only for airsoft, but it does have one or two tho
