[QUOTE="Hans Blaster, post: 77660312, member: 396028"] I tried, but could not find precise numbers. What I did find was that the earliest models of the Thompson sub-machine gun were made in the order of several thousands (M1921, perhaps M1923? as well) and that the overall total production through WW2 was about 1.5 million, but that clearly includes lots made for and sold to the military. (As I recall the total AR-15 platform rifles sold to date is about 10x that with a large portion in private, civilian hands.) The BAR seems to have been even harder to obtain for civilians. Both were quite expensive. Both limitations make it very hard for a disgruntled teenager to obtain one and shoot up their school. [/QUOTE]
