If they sell a correct length semi I would be interested, but it would be a SBR subject to NFA tax.
I didn't study the photo closely but the gun in the pic looks like the one I have which has a legal 16" barrel and is not an SBR. Looking more closely the one in the pic may have a 10" barrel. I don't know if they currently make an SBR version. A couple years ago one of the local gun sellers offered to sell his full auto Thompson to me for $35,000. I considered it but he wanted cash and I only had $30,000 with me at the time. "rlol"

this is just a start :anamatedbanana
That Thompson is available for under $2,000...I see them all over the place. A local gun shop has a Barrett......$13,000....and I saw a Bushmaster knock-off the other day on my way to Austin....I think is was $5,000.
A full auto knock off Thompson is at least $17K if you're lucky. You won't even get a cruddy MAC10 for less than $5000 these days. Vintage Thompsons are $25K and up.
Absolutely if you want full auto. Thompson is making semi-auto versions.

Re: Gun you would buy if you could find it...

Too many to count or keep.....but I'd love to have a Brown Bess from the Revolutionary War. The pair of dueling pistols from the Burr-Hamilton duel.

An original 1851 Colt Navy. Just about any original Civil War firearm. A Trapdoor Springfield. I could go on and on....but have neither the space or the money.
