Fine, with 70% of the original blue finish, showing some mild spotting, bright edge wear, areas of brown and gray patina and some light handling marks. Some heavier pitting and dents are visible on the winding key. The pouch is excellent, with a few light scuffs and stains. The magazine has not been test-loaded, but appears in mechanically good shape.
Description:
One of the signature accessories of the classic "Tommy Gun", this 100-round drum magazine is marked with the model, capacity, "WIND TO 15 CLICKS" and "No.2839" on the front and the New York address, patent dates and "NO.2041" on the rear. Included with the drum is a tan canvas field pouch with integral shoulder strap, unmarked on the exterior and ink stamped "RUSCO" inside the flap.
