Thompson M1A1 is one of those coveted and in some respect prestigious infantry small arms of World War II. For the GIs the Thompson M1A1 marked special status as not everyone was issued with one. In WWII militaries typically only NCOs and men with special roles carried submachine guns. Thompson's weapon had already gathered fame during the 1920s unrest in United States, but the M1A1 variant was the final streamlined version for Allied militaries designed for lower production cost and faster production time. In Thompson M1A1 the firing pin and hammer were removed and replaced with machining replacement firing pin to the face of bolt. M1A1 version production commenced at the end of 1942 and more than 1.3 million were made.
TOKYO MARUI THOMPSON M1A1 AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC GUN (AEG) REPLICA
Following the popularity of Saving Private Ryan movie Tokyo Marui made intensive effort to develop Thompson M1A1 as an automatic airsoft gun. It took years of R&D for Tokyo Marui to come up with the special version six gearbox design that was adapted inside the slim Thompson M1A1 receiver. At the time of its release the version six gearbox represented the cutting edge in airsoft technology and is still adapted to various custom gun designs whenever the slimmest design of internal mechanism is needed.
This Tokyo Marui's Thompson M1A1 electric gun version is extremely well made with full metal receiver and outer barrel. The wooden parts are carefully created from plastics and will fool anyone from distane to believe its real wood. For anyone looking to increase realism of their Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 , these "wood furniture" plastic replica parts can be replaced with CAW wood kit that we offer as option. The performance of the Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 automatic electric gun is very good for airsoft gun replica with 750-850rds per minute rate of fire and effective range up to 50 meters.
At weight of 3,410g the Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 is quite heavy for airsoft gun and this can be credited to its metal receiver and outer barrel. Changing to the optional wooden stock, pistol grip and hand guard will even add to the weight.
8.4v large-type battery is housed inside the stock and adjustable hop up mechanism can be found inside the chamber. It is exposed by pulling back the charging handle. Three types of magazines are produced by Tokyo Marui for this mode: normal long magazine (modelled after the real Thompson M1A1 30rnd magazine), short 190 hi-capacity magazine (modelled after the real Thompson M1A1 20rnd magazine) and a long 420 BB hi-capacity magazine (modelled after the real Thompson M1A1 30rnd magazine).
Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 AEG should not be confused with low-end Chinese airsoft guns as the Tokyo Marui product is made in Japan to the highest quality standards and it features the highly accurate shooting performance thanks to its finely tuned internal mechanism and patented Hop Up system. The Tokyo Marui Thompson M1A1 AEG is intended for long-term active use and is thus expected to last.

WWII Airsoft explained
Airsoft is paintball-type recreational game that is played in indoors (CQB), outdoors and at organized mass events that range from World War II re-enactment to fictional Special Forces operations. The common point of all of these events is the use of airsoft guns and airsoft gun accessories. Airsoft started as a hobby in Japan back in 1980s and is now common in many other countries. Unlike in paintball BB hit from airsoft gun doesn’t leave a mark, but stings a bit. This allows use of smaller and more lightweight pellets that hurt less and do not spray paint across clothes, buildings, etc. The use of pellets also allows completely different design of the airsoft gun in comparison to paintball guns. Many of our Japanese made airsoft guns are highly detailed products that have incredible attention to the detail. You will be surprised about how well some of these airsoft guns are constructed and our customers have praised our models for their realism as can be seen from our testimonials section. WWII Airsoft Guns explained
Airsoft guns range from affordable light powered 10-year old toy guns to serious hobbyist custom guns that cost several thousand dollars a piece. They are either spring, gas or electric operated and have special features such as various blowback mechanisms or accuracy barrels. In most countries owning airsoft gun doesn’t require license or special arrangements. Tokyo Marui Automatic Electric Guns explained
The Marui Automatic Electric Guns (AEG) are operated by central mechanism called Gearbox and electric motor that derivates from RC-cars. The electric motor uses small 8.4v battery as power source and rotates the gears inside the gearbox that in turn cock the piston back and release it forward in high repeating speed. This creates high rate of fire of about 750rds per minute with muzzle velocity of about 80m/s with 0.20g BB (264 FPS). The typical accessories you need for airsoft gun
The basic items to have to get started are BBs, power source (battery or gas) and protective goggles or mask. If you use Tokyo Marui Automatic Electric Gun (AEG) you will need battery charger for the batteries unless you already have one. It is also good idea to have battery discharger to maintain battery lifespan by discharging the batteries before re-storaging them after use. Maintenance and ease of use
Airsoft guns are quite maintenance free and simple to use. Occasional injection of silicon oil will be mostly enough and basic external cleaning after use in outdoors. Safety
Fundamentally airsoft guns are designed for paintball-type gaming and hence are in safe power levels as long as protective gear is worn. It stings a bit through your clothing when BB hits you. Use of protective facemask is mandatory to protect face and eyes. The pellets are lightweight 6mm and 8mm BBs that weight typically around 0.25g each. Effective range is generally about 20 meters for pistols, 40-50 meters for submachine guns and 50 meters for rifles and machine guns. Shipping
