Sgt. Guarnere,

That's a good question...I actually don't know..They might fit but, will they work that's the question, as the actual Hudson (or Tanaka) M1A1 magazine has some what weaker springs than the actual Thompson magazine..The actual Thompson magazines are cheap so it wouldn't hurt to modify them to fit (just don't expect them to work properly though)

Sgt. Guarnere,

You can get Hudson magazines from here http://www.endoshoji.com/model-guns/page012.html They are fairly expensive though...But, if you want the factory Hudson magazines...
