He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose
There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

Combat!
Vince Morrow carried an M1
in the pilot, switched to that Thompson for the rest of the series. Marty Black wrote a great piece for the Fall 2011 GCA Journal about the series and his hunt for relics on the movie lots used to film it. GREAT article!

Vic is sporting a front seam, fixed bale helmet too. 
I believe that would put the helmet at October 1943 or earlier.

The M1 was too heavy and so was the Thompson for Vic...he had a resin gun he carried for all the cowboy shots. He would only carry the real one for shooting scenes...
