> ...Here is what I have found out about the M3A1 over the years, it was designed to replace the .45 Thompson, since in 1939 Thompsons cost the government $209 apiece. By Spring of 1942 cost reduction design changes had brought this down to $70. In February of 1944 the M1A1 reached a low price of about $45 each, including accessories and spare parts.
But by the end of 1944, the M1A1 Thompson was completely replaced with the even lower cost M3 "Grease Gun" as standard issue. The M3 ($15) was designed and introduced in 1942, and an even more simplified M3A1 ($11) was introduced in late 1943,
