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. Hooded blade front and two-leaf rear sights, with "MP40/bnz/41" stamped on the endcap, and "WaA623" stamps on multiple components, including the receiver tube. Matching numbers are present on multiple components, including the barrel, endcap, and bolt components. The trigger group is fitted with a set of dark brown cover and grip panels, as well as a steel under-folding stock. Included with the lot is a three-cell canvas and leather magazine pouch (right hand side model), extra magazine, and a loading tool.
