I posted this at one time. For a full explanation, search the site here. The short story is that the M1A has a hammer and spring loaded firing pin just like the 1921 or 1928 TSMGs. The M1A1 has a fixed firing pin milled directly into the bolt and no hammer or other internals. It is a true, direct blowback gun.

Dan, here is an example of the sling your customer needs. Look for the original TSMG manual online for how to mount this. It is not as simple as it might appear.
