I am posting really for my benefit and education. Not being up on all NFA market prices, I was surprised to see this transferrable, fully functional, MP40 sell for $12,000. I know I have seen them sell for much more?
-
- German MP40 Left side.
-
- Auction Description.
-
- Tube markings.
-
- Intenals.
So…is the fact it has a different “tube” a drag on the price? If so, was this a one-off thing never to seen again? Or are there racks and stacks of non-original MP40 transferrable guns out there to buy?
I ask for a simple reason: We need a 9mm sub-gun in the armory. So I have been looking at some different options. But I didn’t think the MP40 was even a possibility.
-
- Another view of parts.
-
- Right upclose.
-
- Stock folded.
-
- I’d take this all day.
-
- Full operatonal profile.
-
- Finish looks good to me.
-
- Stock closed.
-
- Realized price. No buyer’s premium either.
So what gives? Are there shooter-grade MP40’s looking for a home in The Armory?
Sincerely,
Marky
