Widely regarded to be the best MP40 replica ever made, the MGC replicas have always been highly sought after by collectors and re-enactors. Not to be confused with the DENIX replicas or the models made by Marushin of Japan, the MGC model uses pressed steel parts for the receiver and is completely strippable just like the real thing.

The gun has maker marks and faux Nazi waffenamt that would normally be found on original WW2 examples. The gun comes with its original retail box with maker and model detail.

Proof of this will be required at purchase. The price includes UK delivery. Sn 23658:1 £595.00 |

It has a large oval brass cross guard. Its just over 9” long, broad steel bowie blade with falchion style tip and twin narrow fullers has areas of staining consistent with age and is sharp.

All leather, stitching and brass rivets of the scabbard are intact. There are no manufacturer marks on the scabbard. The price for this WW2 Chindit Combat / Survival knife includes UK delivery.
