A 30-round Thompson box magazine is typically around 10.5 inches long.
M1A1 Thompson's were fed from stick magazines that came in either 20 or 30 round capacity. The most common being the 20 round magazine.
The M1921 Thompson submachinegun used a detachable magazine- and could accept any of 4 different ones- a 20 or 30 round box magazine, or a 50 or 100 round drum magazine.
The standard magazine for the Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine gun has a capacity of 30-rounds. However, 15-round magazines are also available.
if you mean the WWII era submachine gun it really depends on the brand of the gun. Well, you can buy one from a local store, there is one at Canadian Tire for about $1709.99 [Can] and it is very good! I`m getting it this Easter but I`m changing the gearbox AFTER it breaks. (The gearbox is plastic. Do NOT get any plastic gearbox guns) Another thing, the Thompson is 32 inc. and has a 1, 000 round drum magazine. :O Amazing ;D
Thompsons were magazine fed there were the 30+1 round stick magazines, and 50+1 and 100+1 round drum magazines.

The P90 submachine gun has one of the largest magazine capacities, typically holding 50 rounds. However, there are other firearms, such as some drum-fed shotguns and light machine guns, that can have even larger magazine capacities, exceeding 100 rounds.
No.
The Thompson uses a type of blow back action. The bolt is pushed back by the gases propelling the bullet forward through the barrel. The bolt stays closed until the bullet leaves the barrel due to a combination of friction, inertia and the pressure from the recoil spring. Once the bolt starts moving back it extracts the fired case, runs it into the ejector to throw it clear and compresses the spring. The spring then returns to bolt to battery. The bolt moving forward strips a fresh round from the magazine and pushes it into the chamber.
It uses a 9x19mm Parrabullum NATO round, which is the standard round for most pistols and submachine guns made by countries in NATO.
