    MP 40 feeder

    Hello! I have one question for experts. I have mp 40 feeder at home without nazi markings. Is it german ww2 or not, beacause as far as i know they were not produced in Yugoslavia?

      Pictures would certainly help. When you say "feeder", do you mean a magazine? If so, it could be a British Sten magazine, which are often unmarked, and almost identical to MP40 magazines. They fit the gun, but don't feed well in that weapon.

          Perhaps we're talking about a speed loader?

            That's interesting. My Sten magazine fits my MP40! I can't explain the discrepancy.

              Very simple!Dimensions of Sten mag is:22.5x38.5mm
              and MP40 shows 23x34mm.
              My Sten is MARK 2.I think other models use same magazines.
              Regards!

                That makes sense! It does fit a little loosely, but most MP40 mags are also slightly loose. It locks in place and doesn't release by accident, but I don't think it would feed too well with all that play.
