LG2586 According to Fjiestad’s Blue Book, Volunteer Enterprises in Knoxville, TN, operated from 1969 until some time in the 1980s. This is one of their Thompson clones; not, mind you, quite like a Thompson since the bolt handle is on the left side and the construction is substantially different. This one’s serial number is 21,000 range, and it bears the 1972 patent date, so we estimate it was manufactured in 1973. Barrel is 16 1/2 inches, steel with heat dissipation rings anchored in a wood grain polymer forend. Main receiver is blued steel, and the lower receiver is texture coated stamped steel. Weight empty is a hefty 9 pounds 3 ounces. 30 round magazine is original, but we do not believe these magazines are interchangeable with the Thompsons. Buttstock is American Walnut with a 16 inch length of pull. Surface detractins are moderate, with moderate whitening here and there, and some occasional freckling on the receiver and on the wings of the aperture rear sight. This carbine is Excellent mechanically, or at least as excellent as it ever was. These were never known for 100 percent reliability anyway. We have test fired this specimen and it ran 25 rounds of Winchester flawlessly. It did not, however, perform well if the magazine was stuffed plumb full. 20 rounds or so is best.
