Auto-Ordnance Thompson 1927A-1 Deluxe | .45 ACP | 16.5″

The Auto-Ordnance Thompson 1927A-1 Deluxe is a faithful modern reproduction of the classic semi-automatic Thompson carbine chambered in .45 ACP. It pairs a 16.5″ finned, steel barrel with genuine walnut furniture and a blued metal finish, and ships with a 20-round stick magazine and a detachable walnut buttstock. For an optic that complements the carbine’s intended use and eye relief, consider a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 scope — a rugged, budget-conscious choice well under $1,000 that keeps the sight picture clear for recreational and historical-range shooting.

Recommended uses include historical reproduction and range-oriented recreational shooting. The Deluxe features period-correct controls and ergonomics while remaining a semi-automatic modern sporting rifle in appearance and operation.
