This video details an experimental Thompson SMG chambered in .30 Carbine, a prototype submitted for the M1 Carbine trials. Despite resembling a Model 1928, its .30 Carbine chambering and longer magazine set it apart. The design aimed for minimal retooling but failed military requirements due to excessive weight (10-12 lbs unloaded), more than double the target. This specific unit, serial number 1, showcases standard Thompson controls and a proprietary magazine.

The Apache Arms Carbine was a 1960s attempt to create a cheaper, semi-automatic alternative to the Thompson SMG, designed for compliance with firearm regulations. It utilized M3 Grease Gun magazines and featured crude cast aluminum components and a simple steel tube receiver. Despite initial IRS approval, the company quickly went bankrupt due to poor business management, leaving the carbine as a historically interesting but poorly manufactured firearm.

The De Lisle Carbine, a WWII-era integrally suppressed bolt-action rifle, is examined for its exceptional quietness. Developed for clandestine operations, it converted Lee-Enfield rifles to fire .45 ACP using a massive integral suppressor, achieving historically low sound levels around 85-86 dB. Modern comparisons show it outperforms many contemporary suppressed firearms, with its report becoming indistinguishable from ambient noise at 100 yards.

The .45 ACP, a historical 'man-stopper' since 1911, remains relevant against modern 9mm expectations. Its manageable 'push' recoil, lower pressures (~21,000 PSI), and natural subsonic speed make it ideal for suppressed firearms and close-quarters combat. Enhanced variants like .45 Super and .460 Rowland offer significantly more power, while its straight-walled design appeals to handloaders.
