I own a .45 Caliber Semi-Automatic rifle which has Apache Arms Co.
Tempe, Az. and the number 2094 stamped on it. Can you tell me anything about the manufacturer and age of the gun? Thanks.

  APACHE, Tempe, Arizona, was in business 1968/1971..Made Thompson .45 caliber Clip Fed Replica's....If memory serves, I bought one from a Dealer in Cottonwood, Arizona back in 1971...I paid $150.00 for Mine...Had More problems with it than it was worth.....Heavy, Clunky and Prone to Jamming every couple of Rounds...Tried differant Magazines and Springs...Gave Up and Finally Traded it off at a Phoenix Gun Show after having owned it for a couple of months.....Wore a disquise so that the new Owner would'nt recognize me at Future Gun Shows.....{only joking}...........

  Thanks Capt. I hope this Apache is not your old gun. I was actually in Phoenix......and later Cottonwood/Jerome/Sedona in the mid 70's. Small world.
