Tommy Gun Clone

[Handyman 1961]

Happy New Year everyone .I have a Tommy gun clone made by Bower Industries out of Arizona .Chambered in 45 acp and It doesn't cycle properly .I am looking for someone that may have one and can send me a picture of the lower internals ,so I can determine what parts mine is missing .

if its a clone, why not just google thompson semi auto in 45 acp? prob get like 2.5 million links pics of evey nook an cranny.
also, every semi auto i have( rifles and pistols) that has had a cycling issue a new mag ( or mag spring)
or new action spring went a long way to fixing the issues.

exatcly how does yours not " cycle properly"?

[bogey1]

Mine has two springs that I can use on my truck. Yours is probable short stroking,
if the springs are anything like mine.

Very little info on the internet about them .As far as cycling ,the hammer hangs up on the safety .This is the area that is missing parts ,spring,? retaining clip? when safety is engaged .

Is it made by Bowers industries ? ..

I have spent the better part of 3 years trying to find info on this rifle . I cant find anyone that owns this model .This is why I asked for a picture of the lower internals .

Yeah...I'm confident that's not a Thompson clone.

It may have a slight resemblance to a Thompson but that's where it ends. Good luck

I edited and cross posted this thread in the gunsmith section ...

I dont have any pictures of it .It closely resembles the Volunteer Arms Commando .
