M1A1 Thompsons[edit]

This article says that Sandino claimed that M1A1 Thompsons were captured during the battle, yet the article on the Thompson submachine gun says the M1A1 was not introduced until 1942. Is this an error on the part of the Las Cruces article? BDR77777 (talk) 20:11, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
