German MP40 Submachine Gun ( Early Spec )

This is a 90% matching numbered MP40. The bolt is the only part which is not matching numbered. The weapon is dated 1942 and was produced by Pferdmenges & Scharmann KG ( onz ). This example is in excellant condition retaining most of its original bluing. UK sales only

must be BNZ

German MP40 SMG ( Early Spec )

This is a very nice example of an 1942 dated MP40 submachine gun, which has the makers code "bnz" ( Steyr-Daimler-Puch-AG ). The weapon is profusely waffenampted. UK sales only

Stamped bnz 44 for manufacture by Steyr in 1944, this is the hard to find fifth variation MP40, only made by Steyr, with a one-piece grip frame and integral end cap. The gun is in very good condition, with a nice even original blue to the metal work and bakelite in excellent condition. The gun has matching numbers to many of the parts with a non matched number on the receiver. The folding stock is tight and in good working order. Deactivated to old specifications, the gun can be fully field stripped and dry fired. MP40 are hard to find in this condition.

I just looked through the insignia section of Battleflag and I didn't find a single piece of SS militaria I would be comfortable with

Makes Shyster's Treasures look like a respectable dealer
