The 16.5-inch carbon-steel barrel features full-length cooling fins and a pinned Cutts-style compensator, capturing the look of the original 1920s models while providing modern shooter convenience.
Operating from a closed bolt with a simple blowback action, the rifle offers reliable function in semi-automatic fire. The top-mounted knurled charging handle and manual safety lever mirror classic Thompson controls.
Auto-Ordnance outfits this model with an oil-finished walnut buttstock, a fixed walnut pistol grip, and the signature vertical fore-grip. The matte blue steel receiver bears the traditional patent list and bullet trademark roll marks.
Iron sights consist of a blade front integral to the compensator and an elevation-adjustable ladder rear. With an unloaded weight of roughly 13 lb and a generous 17.25-inch length of pull, the rifle balances old-school heft with comfortable shouldering.
