my Thompson recently stopped working and I need some help. I don't have a lot of money so if I can do it myself and relatively cheap that would be awesome. I was firing it at a target in my backyard and it started firing slower and slower until it just started clicking when you pull the trigger then nothing. I tried my battery in my buddies gun and it was fine, full charge. so I took my gun apart and all the gears are fine from what I can tell but the motor keeps getting stuck. we tried another motor but it still didn't fire. I have no idea whats wrong if anyone can help that would be awesome.

You tried a buddies battery and the gun functioned? Sounds like you have a battery issue is all.

Re: help with my thompson
what do you mean your motor is getting "stuck" if you take it out can you turn it with your fingers?
