The Model 1921 Thompson fires a lot faster than the Model 1928 and a whoole lot faster than the M1/M1A1. I never found the latter guns hard to control but the 1921 really lets 'em rip and can get out of hand pretty rapidly.
If the Sheriff wants to get some money for his department and can't sell the gun, that 100 round drum will bring a grand or so. The gun should be transferable as far as BATF is concerned if it is registered (some departments never sweated the small stuff) and those run up to $20k in good condition.
