Great collection Marc, I love the hat and firearms displayed with the paper props but I'm curious about your firearms. Are they all real and functional?

I know we talk about paper props a lot but I have a true interest in firearms and have a small collection myself but due to a business failure, I'm broke thus my interests in paper props.

Years ago I started a collection of functioning firearms of which I have 16. Some are replica black powder muzzle loading pistols and long arm, some modern day pistols and long arms of which some former military, of which are semiautomatic civilian versions of fully automatic weapons. Since obtaining automatic weapons in the States is possible but quite expensive. I would love to have a functioning Thompson semiautomatic as it's so well connected to the late 20's and 30's here in the States. I am enamored with the 20's through the 40's and I'm literally drooling over your Thompson.
 
Very nice. I just finished watching PE on HBO for the fourth or fifth time since they started showing it.

I've fired a full auto thompson once, and a semi auto many times. It's probably my favorite gun to shoot on the range.

The 1911's to the right, umarex and bruni replicas?
 
I'd love to fire a Thompson one day.
The UK gun laws make it impossible though :(
Love 1911's as well. Such an iconic gun.

Nice display Marc, that all looks great and works well together! Not a bad movie either. :thumbsup
 
What hat is that? Looks like an Akubra Federation.

I'd love to get an Optimo in the original Ox Blood felt, but $550 is a lot to spend on a hat!
 
Great collection, love it and Im not really a gun kinda guy.
Some other timeline appropriate props would look great with your collection,a newspaper, pack of cigarettes and some plies of prop paper money,
a few with blood stains come to mind.
 
thank you for your compliments guys great appréciate.

for the other items and display soon...

the Hat it's Akubra fédération de Luxe.
the Colt 45 to the right yes! it's réplica Bruni and Umarex.
to the left it's true Colt 45 11mm43 ( great weapon )
to the left also old copy Smith and Wesson Spanish ( true also ).

the Thompson 1921A1 réplica Denix ( for me very nice copy )..
but I have true Thompson 1928A1 model ( very nice machine gun )
