This video discusses the rare Model 1927 Thompson Semi-Automatic Carbine, a modified version of the M1921 submachine gun. The modification involved altering the fire control group for semi-automatic fire and remarking the receiver. These carbines were created in response to demand from law enforcement and prison agencies seeking the Thompson's aesthetic without full-automatic capabilities. Only a limited number, estimated between 100-150, were sold, and very few survive today, as many were later converted back to full-auto. Notably, due to the receiver's similarity to an SMG, they are legally classified as machine guns in the US, but can be legally converted back to full-auto. The video touches on their rarity and legal status.
