As yes, the Tommy gun! An entire drum magazine of /45 bullets is truly worthy of being called a machine gin. :now:

but personaly i prefer other WWII weapons... the BAR aka Browing Automatic Rifle and the British BREN... both are automatic gun that fired rifle rounds full auto... they where devastating still light enought to be carried around...

True. I'm more into modern and certain classics like the Peacemaker revolver, the Luger, Mauser, .22 rifles and such.

I love the Springfield too. An old gun that doesn't look like a toy. I mean, just look at the Sako 75, it just looks like a shotgun that shots lead pellets. [link] Bleh.

I have one. It can't work anymore, of course, it's demilitarized. I don't even know if this word exists, but in french we said "dΓ©militariser". It means removing the parts of a weapon that allows shoting. Like, the chamber, the hammer, and stuff, if I'm not mistaking.
