The Ingram Model 6, a low cost alternative to the Thompson submachine gun designed by Gordan Ingram and manufactured by Police Ordnance Company.

The Ingram Model 6 is a .45 ACP submachine gun that was designed by Gordon B. Ingram and was manufactured from 1949 through 1952 by the Police Ordnance Company of Los Angeles, California.

Overview

The Ingram Model 6 has an appearance that somewhat resembles a Thompson submachine gun. In fact, it was intended to be sold as a low cost alternative for domestic law enforcement agencies in the United States. The typical version was produced with a wood stock, pistol grip and front grip, with an overall length is approximately 30" with the barrel being 9" in length. It featured a stick-type magazine with a capacity of 30 rounds.

Variants

A Model 7 version was made in 1952, the difference being that it was able to fire from a closed bolt and having a fire mode selector on. Only a few of these were made in the 1950s.
