Wish I had the 40k to grab one.
The St. Louis Police Department is upgrading their hardware by selling off some historic and collectible submachine guns. Twenty Seven iconic Thompsons bought newly 100 years ago for $125 will be sold to Midwest Distributors in Kentucky for $22K each. Being that they are properly registered NFA items, Midwest will in turn sell the rifles to private collectors via the ATF Form 3/Form 4 transfer process.

For those who would consider a semi automatic version, Grabagun has a semi automatic Thompson with a 30 round stick and 50 round drum, Comes complete with a violin case
Price actually seems reasonableat under $1500

It would certainly make a great Fathers Day gift. I wouldn't mind.

The ATF's taking their sweet time approving NFA transfers; it'd probably be more like Valentine's Day 2019.
