  1. That particular gun (full auto version) isn't made any longer, but there are semi-automatic versions being made and marketed.  Auto-Ordnance markets them.


  2. I think you mean the 1917-19 by Auto-Ordnance co.

    Those are not made any more, but there are a bunch of other companies that make them. I bought a used savage arms thompson for $450 that was in good shape. Awesome gun but expensive to shoot, and to fill those clips up

  3. I done think so not anymore. Your going to have to look around gun shops to see if they have any. They can also look for them through other gun shops too. Try googling also. You should find something.

  4. Auto-Ordnance makes the "Tommy Gun", and lists 2 full-automatic versions in their catalogue.  According to their web site they do not currently manufacture the weapon, and a civilian would not be able to buy a new manufacture machine gun.  The particular weapon you ask about was a short-barrel weapon and Auto-Ordnance makes 2 semi-auto versions ($1855 and $2307).  Short-barrel rifles are a Class 3 weapon and subject to the same approval processes as purchasing a machine gun.  Some states that do not allow ownership of machine guns do allow ownership of short-barrel rifles and new manufacturer short-barrel rifles may be purchased by civilians.
