One of the most famous close combat weapons of World War II, the MP40 (Maschinen Pistole 1940) was a refinement of the MP38 with a great deal of commonality in manual of arms and accessories. These SMGs would see use through the end of the war and were very versatile as armament for vehicle crews, close-quarters fighters, and anyone else who needed a lightweight and potent weapon for short distances. Blade front and two leaf rear sights, with the "bnz" code on the receiver tube, "MP40/660/40" on the end cap, and matching numbers on multiple components, including the bolt, barrel and firing pin. The side panels and grips are of dark brown Bakelite construction, with a steel underfolding buttstock. Included with the SMG are seven extra magazines and two magazine carriers. Both are three-cell construction and configured for wear on the left side of the body, one in green canvas with leather straps and "eagle/M" stamps, the other black leather with a faint "eagle" stamp and a magazine loading tool on a front-mounted pouch.
