The Umarex Legends MP 40 submachine gun replica is the closest most of us will ever come to holding and shooting something that looks like the MP 40. It is an externally realistic looking BB air gun metal representation of the legendary WW2 German military MP 40 submachine gun. It has the capability to fire .177 BB (4.5mm) caliber in full automatic at an advertised 465 fps.. The weight of 7.7 pounds adds to the realism. You’ll find some operational differences such as a select fire and safety switch on this airgun, while the real MP 40 was automatic only. While it looks like a MP 40, the gun is manufactured and assembled differently and is not intended to be field strippable for maintenance like a real MP 40.
