hey this is my first post and before my question i would like to introduce myself. i live around south east pa and i am part of C3airsoft. i know 3 people on here from c3 which are Micheal, victor, and hank. and i also have interest in the U.S Rangers.
now my question is how do i get my Thompson to get the fps to 350 upgrade? or any other things that would be good for my thompson (except for inner barrel which i already have) or to know about. thanks will j.

If it's a Marui then: Ver 6 Bushings, M120 or PDI 170 spring, Angel Ver 6 Piston, G&P poly piston head and bearing piston guide. While it's open replace the gears to all steel ones.

Given the limited range and accuracy of a .45 Cal pistol round you could try to be somewhat realistic and leave it stock with no hop up, so long rifles would have somewhat of an upside in comparison. Just a thought.
Upgrades just reduce your reliabilty and increase your heart aches. Given the dramatic over abundance of Thompsons on the WW2 airsoft battlefields at some point in time these sort of restrictions will undoubtedly be enforced.
It will undoubtedly be a while but hopefully the day will come.

i do have a tokyo marui GBB M1911A1 as my back up. but just one more thing: i heard upgrading the thompson's fps just a little helps it go with the 300 inner barrel for more accuracy or something but correct me if am wrong, plus this is a good time to learn more about my gun.

Actually what 2ndBat was saying was...
The Thompson shoots a .45 pistol round. So, to add realism to the sport...leave your gun stock, so it has less range and power than rifles.
Its your choice...

And isn´t the Marui Thompson a pretty decent shooter as a stock gun? If it ain´t broke dont fix it.. :-)

Being shot by it multiple times, i can vouch for that it does not need upgrading.
