Happy Jack Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 This issue has been discussed with the SASS Board of Directors. They will not be allowed at a sanctioned (State and above) shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grouchy Spike Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Wild Bunch is a takeoff on a movie. Maybe in the distant future there will be a game called " Untouchables" based on the TV series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 There was a small spinoff called ZOOT Shooting that was started by Bat Masterson in CO. They use a Thompson SMG in their shoots. I don't know if it is still active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted88160 Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 It is. They still shoot monthly, Sand Creek Raiders. Check out their website. TriggerHappy Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My closet is full; it can't stand another costumed shooting sport. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August West Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 We had a shooter use a Thompson SMG as their match rifle last month. It worked out well. The manual of arms is very similar to the 1911, with the bolt locking open after the last round in the magazine is fired. So, all loading and changing of magazines could be easily monitored for safety. The condition of the arm as it came to the line was monitored in the same way we do the model 12. But, dang that thing is heavy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUSTY BODDAMS Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 August, sounds like a lot of fun. ;D But caution a Thompson smg fires from an open bolt! Thompson semi's fire from a closed bolt like a 1911. We've done this with a soumi and a semi Thompson for a stage at a local match. It's safe and fun!

August West Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 From your comment, Dusty, I must have mis-spoke. The firearm that was used at our match was a SEMI-AUTO. Sorry that my ignorance caused confusion. (it often does!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
