Talk:MP 40
MP40s in low budget Australian movies
One thing I've noticed from being on this site, is how many MP40s are used in low budget Australian movies. Is the MP40 really that inexpensive? --Jackbel 12:04, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
- Given the numbers lurking around from various WW2 movies, I imagine blank-firing MP40s aren't exactly the hardest thing in the world to get hold of. Wikipedia says the Norwegian Army was still using the MP40 in the 70s, there's a German semi-auto version called the BD38, and that Star and Zastava make MP40 clones; in other words, it's not like this is a rare or even really an out-of-production weapon.

Fire mode
I notice that the fire modes section of the specifications are listed as unknown. I'm under the impression that these weapons are full-auto only, but thought I'd ask for confirmation of this before I changed anything. I'm fairly sure I'm correct in regards to the MP-40, but I can't be certain about the MP-38 & MP-41. Jimmoy (talk) 08:47, 9 January 2013 (EST)
MP40 in 'Countdown'
Here’s a nice one for MP-40 aficionados: in a behind-the-scenes shot from Countdown (Lichnyy nomer), an armorer is playing around with an MP40 that has a picatinny mounted red dot. It’s not seen in the actual movie so it is probably something put together just for the fun of it, PeeWee055 (talk) 10:03, 4 December 2013 (EST)
