The old man was 82nd airborne said , it was under powered for anything but house to house or trenches the 45 thompson was better. Korea talking. Read Eugene Sledge’s book “With the Old Breed”. A little different take. Me, I ain’t trying to get through life with one. The Thompson is my go to minus the Gerand or a trench gun. WHen people are dying, maybe you, you get serious and activated.
