Flew by under the radar, I guess because not many people really care much for the brand. Price is kinda steep too, but considering what you get (the whole set above) it seems pretty worth it.

Now that package looks insane... @_@

[FireKnife]

It's a MP-41. Not a MP-40.

 

Just got in before the purists and heavily into WW2 players point that out .

 

Still looks alright for what it is.

That wood case is insane

[Rob15]

If by insane you mean awesome, then yes, yes it is!

 

It's a shame they left one of the magazine slots empty though, but I guess they'll want to sell some magazines seperately.

Yes, insanely-awesome!

 

it already comes with 4 mags, can't complain there

[Desert.Express]

"Real wood, full steel, comes with 4 mags, the case is insane"..but: that's still SRC.

 

All that stuff is just for marketing, but I'd like to know how it performs and therefore if it's worth 500 bucks.

lol src stigma

 

but interesting!

 

i remember the src mp40 when it first came out vastt improvement over agm but rare as balls

[blobface]

...... case is cool and all but that'll double the cost for the delivery... also noticing some dodgy looking screws on the body every here and there

[chas]

They should offer two versions: simple MP41 with just a hicap and a carboard box, and this Deluxe version.

[Algy]

I suppose due to the limited appeal of the MP41, SRC didn't produce it in great numbers, hence the flashy packaging which appeals to collectors and WWII enthusiasts. 

I can't say that I'm that interested in this particular gun, but at least it means that it's one more WWII weapon that's ticked off the list (perhaps when the main weapons of the the US, USSR and Germany have been produced manufacturers will start turning out British weapons of the era).

[Mike_West]

Well paint me pink and call me Fluttershy, that's some crazy collectible offer right there.

You already have a Sten, a Bren and, since last week or thereabouts, a Lee-Enfield.

[northernairsofter]

Does the battery fit into the buttstock? any idea of the size of the compartment?

 

Also is this the blow back model ?

You can clearly see "blowback aeg" in the link.

It's a MP-41. Not a MP-40.

It says so on the box itself

[Ryaw]

I used to own an SRC MP40. External build quality was lovely and I bought 7 mid caps for it, as the hi caps were awful and utterly useless. It was shooting really well for the first few hours, but you had to rock the mags back and forth in the magwell to get it to feed. Such badly designed feeding issues.

The gearbox then ate itself. I returned it to the supplier for a fix under warranty. The gearbox had imploded damaging everything inside. It took 12 weeks to get the gun back.....it subsequently imploded within half a mag of testing.

Utterly disappointing wall hanger. My biggest regret purchase, simply because I had hoped so much that it would be skirmishable.

Turns out mine wasn't the only one to do this and they're well known for self destructing gearboxes with proprietary parts.

Buyer beware!!

Looks like ehobbyasia has them in stock. $498 for the deluxe kit.
