Thompson SMG Cases: Police, FBI, and Secret Service
This video explores various carrying cases for the Thompson SMG, manufactured by Auto Ordnance. It highlights two common variants: the Police and FBI cases, both designed to hold the firearm, detached stock, one drum magazine, and four box magazines. The Police case features separated compartments lined with purple velvet for better balance, while the FBI case, typically lined with blue velvet, stores magazines on the left, resulting in poorer balance. The video also showcases a rare, flat-lying wooden case custom-made by the Secret Service for a protective detail, which accommodates the gun, stock, and four box magazines but not drums.
