The reality is the full auto thomson SMG was a jam-o-matic, especially with the 100 round drum (not unlike what our modern AR + drum that the Colorado Shooter Encountered.. large capacity non-belt fed is and always probably will be unreliable).
The gun was "used" to front gun control when in reality there was only one major incident of "mass murder" using the weapon.. even in the drive bys they were used in were not "effective". Movies make them look like they can work perfectly.. and they do pretty well with a 30rounder but the drum was prone to major stopages and jams.
Explosives make a much better tool of mass death, so do biologics, and chemical weapons.
