This is a AGM MP40.
As usual, Metal parts were garnished with romoving paints and gunblueing.
Lower receiver and grip were treated, as made of ABS material, for pattern like antique Backlite.
Overall feature seems perfect, however, some dismatching was found in detail comparing with historical verdict.
(Single shooting selector, no back-lock loading handle and some details on upper receiver etc.)
This is left scene in full scale.
It's close-up shot of discharge canopy.
Chamber cover has many different features compared with real gun in detail.
In the middle of World War ll, MP40 was produced with pressed steel for cost-down purpose.
which resulted weaker in shock especially on upper receiver.
Look at this damage scar for reality, which was not intended first.
This is lower left receiver and grip.
Barrel and target bead in close-up look.
As we can see, it's a unique design part of MP40.
There is a standing pods foldable to the barrel for easier shooting.
That must be useful when shooting at bunker top or tank top.
This is close-up shot of lower right receiver.
Cross screw at Folding stock looks so hefty.
Real gun has rivets instead.
It's a full shot of right side.
Fixed back poised charging gear.
As you know much about automatic MP40
The top part was covered with metal welding to hide batteries.
which was designed to protect charging gear to hold back at half.
It has much more silmilar deetails with real gun.
Another aspect of upper receiver in close-up.
This can be folded down when press the oval-shape button.
Last is close-up scene of Folding-stock.
Thanks for watching.
Tim.
