Tommy 1941 Round Mag — Historical Overview

The "Tommy 1941 Round Mag" refers to a specific type of magazine used with the Thompson submachine gun, commonly known as the "Tommy Gun," during World War II.

Background on the Thompson Submachine Gun:

• The Thompson submachine gun was developed in the early 1920s by John T. Thompson.

• It gained notoriety during the Prohibition era in the U.S., favored by both law enforcement and criminals.

• By World War II, the Thompson was widely adopted by the U.S. military and allied forces for its firepower and reliability.

The 1941 Round Magazine:

• The 1941 Round Mag refers to the 50-round drum magazine designed for the Thompson.

• This round magazine was a cylindrical drum-shaped magazine capable of holding 50 rounds of .45 ACP ammunition.

• It was larger and heavier compared to the standard 20- or 30-round stick magazines but offered a much greater ammunition capacity, ideal for sustained fire.

• The 50-round drum magazines were complex and prone to jamming or malfunction if not properly maintained, which led to some troops preferring the stick magazines.

• Nevertheless, they became iconic for the Tommy Gun, contributing to its distinctive look.

Historical Usage:

• The 50-round drum magazine saw widespread use in World War II by American and Allied troops.

• It was favored in some combat scenarios where a high volume of fire was needed, such as close-quarters fighting or defense positions.

• The 1941 round mag is often associated with the M1928 and M1 Thompson models, which were the primary models issued during the war.

• Post-war, the drum magazine gradually fell out of favor as smaller, more reliable magazines were developed.
