What gun?

[Jan]

Not an expert in these I would like an opinion on this deactivated weapon on sale here in Finland for about 50 euros!

I believe it's Spanish, and at that price it seems a bargain!

Looks like the result of the drunken carnal coupling between an MP40 and an M3 grease gun.

I believe that this is a Portuguese FBP Submachine Gun, If I remember rightly the design came about in the early 1940's, however they weren't manufactured and issued until after the war. Its a bargain price at 50 Euro's too, go for it!

Thanks

"The FBP m/948 submachine gun was broadly based on two wartime designs - German MP40 (bolt and return spring setup, safety) and US M3 (receiver design, trigger and shoulder stock)."

I knew it, the dirty buggers. Sleeping with the enemy....
