Now that we know what each Thompson looks like, devs can add them under the current ones in a folder.
Also the next time they update the weapon models for the Thompsons, they need to correct the position of the bolt because currently the M1928A1 with 100 Round Drum is the only blish lock Thompson with the correct bolt position.

Also devs need to make sure that the M1928A1 they are adding to the Soviets is the correct model.

As you can see devs are adding the M1928A1 with the simplified rear sight and removed barrel fins, but there is not one historical photo where Soviets have them, only the M1928A1 Standard, 1 example a M1928A1 with simplified rear sight, and either a M1921A, M1928A, or a M1921A overstamped to a M1921/28 (or it could be one of the NKVDs pre war purchases.

Now hopefully devs also add the M50 Reising so Soviets also have an extra BR-1 SMG as well because the only reason they are adding the M1928A1 with box magazine is because Soviets currently only have one BR-3 SMG

Anyways I’m glad they are doing this, lend lease equipment is finally being accepted which will add more diversity to the Soviet tech tree, but they should allow us to purchase more Stalingrad full access pack weapons because some of us weren’t able to buy enough and many players have had theirs taken and believe that they were just removed from the game and have no idea they can get them back, and quite frankly they will never know, because many of them don’t use the forum.

Thompsons under 45 acp are a piece of feces. They are the worst smg in the game right now, thanks to cheesy bullet velocity, one of the worst sights in the game and random recoil.
I don’t mind the introduction, but right now it’s a useless weapon

This one does look like he’s got the simplified sights on there.

The damage is op, it literally does more damage than the base m2 when fully upgraded

it won’t help you if the bullets take too long to fly, and the accuracy is near zero

and it is m2 that allows us not to use the shame in the form of Thomsons in our game

I would like to have either the M1921A or the M1921AC with the 100 round drum mag to be included in the tech tree. That is the best version of the Thompson out there and it would be a befitting addition to US BR V. Plus it would be fair to F2P players as well since the only 100 round drum mag Thompson is locked behind a paywall. It should have been a tech tree unlock in the first place.
