An Entity of Type: Carbine, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Thompson Light Rifle was an attempt by the Auto-Ordnance Company to manufacture a light rifle for the United States Armed Forces. The overall weapon was based on their well proven .45 ACP submachine gun, although the original .30 Carbine caliber rifle was based on the M1921/27 variants. It worked well but due to the war effort was found expensive for mass production and its weight defied the concept of a light rifle.

dbo:abstract
  • Le Thompson Light Rifle était une tentative de la (en) de fabriquer un fusil léger pour les Forces armées des États-Unis. L'arme était basée sur la mitraillette Thompson .45 ACP bien éprouvée, bien que le carabine de calibre .30 Carbine était basé sur les variantes M1921/27. Il a bien fonctionné mais en raison de l'effort de guerre, il a été jugé coûteux pour la production de masse et son poids a défié le concept d'un fusil léger. Les seules différences majeures par rapport au fusil et au pistolet-mitrailleur étaient le carénage du canon qui abritait un dispositif de changement de canon rapide similaire a la MG42 et des composants en acier embouti pour faciliter la production et réduire le poids. Le stock en ligne réduit la montée du canon améliorant la précision. La carabine légère Thompson était plus fiable et précise que la carabine M1 qui a été adoptée et était également dotée de la capacité de tirer de manière sélective, ce qui la rendait proche du StG-44.

  • The Thompson Light Rifle was an attempt by the Auto-Ordnance Company to manufacture a light rifle for the United States Armed Forces. The overall weapon was based on their well proven .45 ACP submachine gun, although the original .30 Carbine caliber rifle was based on the M1921/27 variants. It worked well but due to the war effort was found expensive for mass production and its weight defied the concept of a light rifle. The only major differences from the Light Rifle and SMG was the barrel shroud which housed a quick barrel change device similar to the MG42 and pressed steel components to ease production and reduce weight. The in-line stock reduced barrel climb improving accuracy. The Thompson Light Rifle was more reliable and accurate than the M1 carbine that was adopted and also came with the capability of select fire, which made it close to the likes of the StG-44. Auto-Ordnance also submitted two other models not based on the Thompson SMG for tests in the .30 Carbine competitions in May and June, 1941. Their first light rifle was a more conventional rifle with recoil-operated locked-breech action and weighed about 5.5 pounds. The modified version tested September, 1941 was semi-auto only, had 80 parts, and was found difficult to disassemble and reassemble. (en)
  • 湯普森輕型步槍(英語:Thompson Light Rifle)是由美國於二次大戰期間試圖為美國軍隊生產的輕型自動步槍,該槍的設計是源自久經實戰考驗的湯普森衝鋒槍,其平台為以M1921/27型作基礎。 儘管是個可行的設計,該槍大量生產時的成本實在是太高,而且其重量也打破了「輕型步槍」的概念。 湯普森輕型步槍與湯普森衝鋒槍之間的主要差異在於前者的槍管隔熱罩內裝有一個類似於MG42通用機槍的快速更換槍管裝置,以及為了方便於生產和減低重量而改用的鋼板沖壓組件。該槍採用跟湯普森衝鋒槍相同的槍托,使武器能夠減少以增加射擊精度。據指,湯普森輕型步槍比起被列為制式武器的M1卡賓槍有著更高的可靠性和精確度,而且還有選射功能(全自動、單發),使它較符合由德國所提出的突擊步槍概念。 除了湯普森輕型步槍以外,自動軍械公司也曾分別於1941年5月和6月提交過兩種採用獨立設計的武器,以望能贏得.30口徑卡賓槍競選的寶座。他們最初的.30口徑輕型步槍為一枝較常見的採用後座作用機制閉鎖的步槍,該槍重約5.5磅。而其改良版為一枝半自動步槍,由80個零件組成,它於1941年9月被送往部隊進行試驗。然而在試驗期間發現難以分解和組裝。 (zh)
