This might possibly be the last all metal PR I make. Barring sourcing out more parts.
The market for Thompson parts has skyrocketed, I just cant find reasonably priced parts sets anymore or more to a point people are far less willing to pay the going rate for them to be used in a PR.
This one is a "Kalifornia legal" gun, (minus the orange paint)
I was asked to address any CA specific replica gun issues. The Real 870 has been demilled above and beyond. The barrel has been permanently blocked and cannot chamber a round. It has been further welded to the receiver preventing re activation of the gun (as per ATF regs). The Thompson magazine has been pinned and welded to prevent the insertion of no more than 5 rounds. The upper receiver is solid and has no moving parts.
The shroud is my standard Vac form offering except this one is made of a tough thermoformable materiel called Vivac, roughly twice the expense of styrene but well worth it.
The steel stock locks solidly via a spring loaded bolt near the rear of the receiver and the 10 hole barrel vent and barrel are steel as well. Both stock and vent are Matsucorp exclusives.
No counter for that smooth side corporate look.
Two tone black finish.
Deact 870...
Caseless ammo...
Contrasting crowned and polished muzzles...
Home-Made barrel block....
If you have an all metal PR with real parts, cherish it. Thompson parts are becoming as scarce as SPAS parts.
