Just picked up a 2nd hand MP40... These things are so much fun. Feels great and such a blast emptying the magazine fast into the targets at the end of the garden. Okay its not going to win any target competitions but its going to take more than that to wipe the smile of my face.

I don't mind posting a picture.
I was surprised that I'm getting 4 magazines out of the two CO2 capsules, although I do need to work out a better way for filling them back up with BB's, looking around the new magazines have a notch so you don't have to hold the spring back with one hand which would help.

It would be so much more fun if they were full auto though I'm sure I have seen videos of them firing in full auto, but there are probably issues with owning a full auto weapon in the UK, I seem to recall from my paintball days.

The .6mm airsoft version is full auto as well. The .177 version can malfunction though, and go full auto.😉

Full auto would be considered seriously naught if found out! The videos you have seen will have been in other countries. Don

I once owned a Hammerli 208 .22 rimfire pistol that a fellow club member managed to fire full-auto when when he tried it. Brian

Great looking Mp40 ... i like the "Bakalite" panels .... they make it look closer to the real steel. looks like a load of fun
