Replica MP40 Submachine Gun by Denix

The MP40 Submachine Gun was a WW2 German weapon that was used extensively by German military forces in all theatres.

Chambered for the 9mm round it was designed by Heinrich Voller and often called the ‘Schmeisser’ by allied forces, after another weapon designer Hugo Schmeisser, even though he had nothing to do with the creation of this weapon.

Made by Erma Werke it is estimated that at least 1.1 million were made across the period of the 2ndWorld War. Popular in particular with Infantry Officers and NCO’s, the weapon made its mark in close quarter combat in battles such as Stalingrad. The weapon was a match for the Soviet PPSH to provide an easy to wield weapon in house to house fighting.

The weapon has a distinctive look with its folding stock, stick magazine and characteristic silhouette. The replica MP40 SMG by Denix is a same weight, same size full metal reproduction with working action, stock and removable magazine.
