T'S NEW

BY

BILL CANTRELL

Shown here is a beautififul M1A1 Thompson owned by Bill Cantrell, with a new inspection

cartouche. The marking is "L S. A. A." enclosed in a box. According to Frank Iannamico, the

marking is thought to be the inspector's initials "L.S." at Augusta Arsenal, during one of their

rebuilds. Always interesting to see new markings.

DOES

ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS MARKING?
