THE BIG PUNCH!
THOMSEN TOMMY GUN MODEL A-42
The Grout and Mortar Pump Developed Specifically for the Masonry Industry

Lightweight fighters can't whip the heavyweight champ. Not enough punching power. So, why expect an ordinary plastering machine to perform like a Thomsen grout and mortar pump on tough masonry construction projects? Experienced contractors know it just can't be done! The Thomsen Tommy Gun Model A-4½ is the grout and mortar pump designed specially for masonry work. It's "The Pump with the Big Punch!" Over the span of years, the Model A-4½ has gained an almost legendary reputation for high performance, versatility and economy in pumping high lift grout and grouting, and hoisting mortar on multi-story construction.

Sum it up this way. The Tommy Gun A-4½ was developed with one objective in mind-to provide masonry contractors with an exceptional grout and mortar pump that would meet and surpass every essential requirement demanded by the industry. This goal was achieved. Today, the Thomsen A-4½ is the class of its field... undisputed Heavyweight Champ of the Masonry Industry!
