An American .45-caliber submachine gun on full-auto. I think most people would think of the Thompson M1A1 submachine gun, except this one came in service from 1943, and was much cheaper to produce. The M3 submachine gun (a.k.a. Grease Gun) is our Photo Of The Day.
I can appreciate a collection of historic firearms, but I am more of a modern guy. The LWRCI Sub Machine Gun 45 would be my contemporary choice.
A student assigned to the U. S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School who is in the Special Forces Weapons Sergeant Course fires an M3 “Grease Gun” during weapons training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina May 12, 2020. The Soldiers were trained to employ, maintain and engage targets with select U.S. and foreign pistols, rifles, shotguns, submachine and machine guns, grenade launchers and mortars and in the utilization of observed fire procedures.
