03-1915 | Cal. 9mm. | S# 9244. | Bbl. 9 9/10”.

A beautiful MP 40 with a lot of matching numbers. Hooded fixed blade front sight, rear sight is windage drift adjustable, dual aperture folding leaf. Of all the German WWII era SMGs, the MP40 may be the most iconic of them all. Its slow cyclic rate combined w/ decent sights & pleasant ergonomics make it as fun to operate as it is interesting to look at. It utilizes a very simplistic, yet incredibly smooth open bolt firing mechanism. The recoil system is typical of German over engineering consisting of a 3 piece telescoping rod w/ a captured spring that doubles as the connection point for the firing pin which slides inside of the bolt. The safety mechanism is an extremely simple design which shares commonalties w/ other WWII era SMGs. It consists of a rearward notch that interfaces w/ the cocking handle holding the bolt to the rear. Manufactured in 1941 by Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG as designated by receiver code “bnz.41”. This MP40 utilizes a 3d generation mag. housing which includes the ribs for strength & square notch facing the shooter. Waffenamts appear on multiple parts as well as makers codes.
