What about this new MP40?

[1stLast&Always]

The new MP40 by American Tactical, retails for about $560. Not a pistol, not a rifle. Would you buy one? Why or why not? What would you use it for?

It would be way down on my wish list, but I'd get one for the historical reference.

I would have zero interest in this weapon.....First off I am not much of a long gun guy, pretty much all handguns...secondly, if I did get one it would most likely remain a safe queen, maybe an occasional outing for target practice. I would much rather spend the money on something I will use and carry.....it's just not for me...

The review on "truth about guns" says its trash. I dont buy into everything they say but one flawess 25round mag out of 500 rounds of ammo is enough for me to say neigh. It does look cool. Gotta give it that

Not a pistol

They list it as a pistol.

The company is also are discussing ways to SBR it, so if it's only a pistol to some that's fine by me. Some of its ancestors have stocks.

Having fired the old NFA version I always liked them from a historical perspective, but the single position feed mag needed a good loader or a strong thumb. Guns like the Karl Gustav M45 or SW 76 were more reliable and easier to load.

How much does a SW76 go for now? This one come with a 'loading accessory" lol.
