I don't think you can have one, since is a pistol gripped Semi-Automatic, and those are Verboten in CA
Don't feel bad though. They are junk anyway.
Auto-Ordanance makes about the shittiest product in the world IMO next to Lorcin...The only difference is, they have a better finish.
Tollerences suck ass.

Thompson 30 Rounders are failrly inexpensive (About $20-$20), but need to be slightly modified to fit in the semi's.

My cousin had one that was junk.
I have 2 friends that had them...Junk.
I know one guy who has one that runs OK, but it still jams W__A__Y tooo much, and he never shoots it.
He just bought it so he could say he had one.

I would rather have an UZI any day of the week.

Kahr bought out Auto-Ordnance and has promised to bring up quality control and update maufacturing equipment.

That's quite a price range. What's the difference between a cheap mag and a NIW, that justifies that kind of price difference [;)]

Thompson with the drum mag has got to be the coolest looking firearm ever invented.

But still, how can you not want one... [:D]

Those ones for $8,500 are "new" TSMG's produced in the 1970's and 1980's.

The West Hurleys are the least desirable for the Tommies (but still neater than hell). From what I've seen over on subguns.com, that price is a bit high, $6K would be more in line.

Now if it was a 1921 Colt/Thompson or a WWII-era Savage....

I had one of the new semi-auto 1927-A1 Delux jobs. Looked great. Ran like shit. Couldn't get a full mag off with-out a few jams. Tried all kinds of ammo. Finally got rid of it.

Here's a West Hurley my NFA dealer has for sale with extras:
