Auto-Ordnance is teaming up with Big Rock Sports and Outlaw Ordnance to produce the Bootleggers, two iconic Prohibition-era firearms, the Thompson and the Model 1911.

Thompson Auto-Ordnance is expanding their commemorative World War II collections with the addition of the 75th Anniversary Iwo Jima Series.

“The overall appearance makes for a pistol that looks like a WWII fighter plane getting ready to race into the skies hunting bandits! Auto-Ordnance is proud to offer this latest custom 1911 in honor of the pilots who flew in defense of our nation during WWII,” said the Pennsylvania-based company in a press release.  “May their bravery and sacrifice always be remembered!”

Most of us, at one point or another, have wanted a Tommy Gun. Among the iconic American weapons, it is a stand out just like the 1911 and the M16. Whether we grew up watching Al Capone movies or the Sands of Iwo Jima, this a weapon we remember from our youth. Unfortunately, full auto Chicago typewriters can fetch tens of thousands of dollars, and require that sticky special license. Fortunately, Auto Ordnance has been making civilian-legal versions for some time now.

The Thompson. This is an epic and storied gun. So how does it handle on the range? Exceptionally well. In a world of high-speed black rifles, it is a privileged to take a Thompson to the range. And Auto-Ordnance, celebrating the 100th year of the Thompson, is giving this one away (along with a matched 1911A1). Read our review and enter to win.

GunsAmerica is proud to giveaway a matched pair of commemorative Auto-Ordnance .45 ACPs. This is the first part of the matched pair, a 1911A1. It is a compelling historical single action, but Auto-Ordnance is giving it away with a matching Thompson 1927A1. Read our review of the pistol here.

GunsAmerica is honored to bring you our latest giveaway: a matched set of classic .45 ACPs. One winner will get this 1927A1 Thompson, and a 1911A1. These commemorative beauties are being made in limited numbers to mark the 100th anniversary of Auto-Ordnance, and you could win. Check out the details…
