Is it true that Prohibition-era American gangsters used the Thompson submachine gun in violent crimes?
Unclear. One reference states the Thompson submachine gun became infamous during Prohibition and was used by criminals, and a dissertation documents a violent Prohibition-era gangster, but no placed source directly establishes that American gangsters used the Thompson in violent crimes.
