I prefer the M1 simply because of it power and accuracy. Only downside is you can't reload in the middle of a clip, but the "PING!" sound is pretty cool. The Thompson packs a really sharp bark and nice power, but doesn't really do it for me.

the 'ping' sound isnt as cool when a german soldier waits for the 'cool' ping sound and knows that you have to reload.

It's a pretty quick reload, and you could just find some cover for a few seconds, or just use your pistol for the time being until you can find a spot to reload.

Thompson is a very fast weapon, but with horrible accuracy. It's also bulky. In a couple of weeks I'm going to try out WWII weapons, but as for now in video games I prefer the M1 over thompson.

Again...I have never use this type of weapon.  From video game experience, I'd prefer the M1 Garand.  Its more accurate than the Thompson.

If its in a large area with lots of cover, the M1. But if its close-quarters combat, the Thompson.

M1 Garand has a much better aim, and it's an effective weapon. The Thompson is the opposite.

No Thompson , No M1 Garand

Browning Automatic Rifle.

20 rounds and packs more punch then the M1 and the Thompson combined.

Only down side is it's like 30 pounds.....:P

Great weapon for open areas, but I guess it wouldn't be so good in close quarters unless you deployed it at a strategic location.

This weapon would be terrible in close quarters.......... but it's more of a covering and surpressing fire weapon.

M14 is basically a M1 Garand with a 20 round box mag and full auto.

Plus I bet our troops back in WWII would have loved this.

The M1 Garand is one of my most favorite guns of all time.

M1...I like to reach out and touch someone with my shots, and I like 1 shot 1 kill...no spray and pray for me.
