Description:

Manufactured with a combination of a Pearl Manufacturing tube receiver and assorted vintage parts, this is a very fine, functional example of the signature MP40 SMG of World War II fame. In the same class as the British STEN and the American M3, the MP40 was optimized for speed and ease of production, making heavy use of stamped metal in the construction. Blade front and two-leaf rear sights, with the Pearl markings on the sides of the receiver "MP40/660/40" on the trigger housing. The receiver has been numbered to match. The lower receiver is paneled in brown ribbed Bakelite, with an underfolding steel buttstock and a brown leather sling. Included with the lot are five extra magazines, two magazine loading tools, a modern production three-cell white canvas magazine pouch (right side configuration), and a commercial plastic case.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as assembled, with 95% of the Pearl-applied factory quality blue finish, showing areas of brown and gray patina, scattered pitting, areas of oxidization and mild handling marks. The furniture is in equal condition, with mild handling marks. Mechanically excellent. Some of the extra magazines are rough or polished bright, pouch is good. 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) under the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 479.
