Description:

A refined and streamlined successor to the MP38, the MP40 made extensive use of metal stampings and synthetic materials to make a weapon robust enough to withstand the stress of war while being simple enough to manufacture to keep up with the demand. Nearly every armed branch and paramilitary organization in Germany made use of the MP40, and many also found their way into the hands of opposition forces such as the French Resistance and Poland's Home Army, making it one of the signature weapons of the war. "MP40/bnz 43" (Steyr) on the end cap, with a hooded blade front and two-leaf notch rear sights, Bakelite side panels, and an underfolding steel stock. Visible numbers are matching overall.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, 95% professionally refinished high polished blue overall, with some clamp/vise marks on the magazine well, areas of covered pitting, and mild wear and handling marks. The grip panels are very fine, with mild scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent. NOTE: This weapon is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, (BATFE) that is classified as a "Curios or Relic" as defined in 27 CFR, 478.11.
