The Thompson M1A1 Airsoft Rifle came into existence during the tail end of the World War I and was extensively used in the World War II by the American army. The Airsoft Thompson M1A1 Airsoft Rifle is the exact replica of the real Thompson and is licensed.
With a complete metal body and stock and fore grip made of wooden faux, the gun has unmatched power and amazing accuracy. This makes the gun popular among the enthusiasts of the Airsoft guns and games.
Power is determined by measuring the speed of the fired pellet in feet per seconds (fps). The higher the power, the faster, farther, and harder the pellet will fly. Speed is important to make sure the hit is recorded before the target moves. Higher distance allows for a more covert attack. Harder strikes ensure the target knows they have been hit, leaving nothing to chance or interpretation.
It is not just about the look of the guns. In the realms of the Airsoft games, the guns must also have the ability to perform alongside the look of the guns. The performance of any Airsoft gun is measured by the power, accuracy and the capacity of the gun. When it is about the Airsoft Tommy, the gun has incredible scores in the basket to be able to become one of the most admired Airsoft guns. These air guns have the amazing velocity of 420FPS with .12gm of pellets and the velocity is a little low (330+ FPS) with the pellets of .20gm.
In tests, the M1A1 has recorded speeds as high as 348fps with .20g pellets. This makes the M1A1 a little too tough for close quarter combat but ideal for outdoor battles.
In accuracy, the Airsoft Tommy is compared to a laser beam. The Airsoft may be switched between the fully automatic and semi-automatic modes. The results of the testing of the Airsoft Tommy showed that the fully automatic mode loses some accuracy as expected. At 45 feet, the settings of the fully automatic produced a grouping in a 7-inch circle. In a semi-automatic mode, the grouping is lessened to a 2.5 inch circle. Normally, the pellets fire flatly, but the Airsoft Tommy surpasses the expected distance results at over 300 fps. The fingers of the Airsoft enthusiast can be adjusted for wind and elevation to make sure the aiming mechanism is doing right.
The M1A1 Airsoft Thompson is a little short of stock ammo in its magazine holding only 60 rounds, as compared with the M4 and Ak-47 III which holds around 68 rounds each and the AK-47 LE which holds a remarkable ammo of 340 rounds. The average number of ammo being fired is around 54. The short capacity of stock ammo is well compensated with the design of the Airsoft Thompson and how well the magazine may be removed, reloaded and replaced.
When it comes to capacity of the rifle, this breed of the Airsoft guns have a little bit of lower capacity with only 60 possible rounds. But the irony is that only 54 rounds can be fired. After that the magazine needs to be refilled. However, there is one positive aspect of the gun. The magazine can be removed and reloaded very easily. The rifles have metal gear box and steel gears for more durability. Overall, the rifle is a real one except for the fact that it cannot fire real bullets.
