We had them in our small 40 man Air Force unit in the ‘60’s. I think you could get a faster rate of fire from a 1911! Not even close to an MP 40.

Yeah, carried one while driving the ordnance truck. Swear I could fire a 1911 as fast. Big arse bolt slamming back and forth had the muzzle going everywhere.

The Thompson was much faster and easier to control.
