EXTREMELY SOUGHT AFTER GERMAN WWII MP-44 MACHINE GUN (C&R). GERMAN MP-44 6615 7.93x33MM MODERN; NFA; C&R Cal. 7.92x33mm. 17-3/4" bbl. This classic German Sturmgewehr assault rifle was manufactured by "STEYR" in 1944 as indicated by "bnz" code on bottom of receiver with eagle proof over "WaA623". Bottom of receiver forward of magazine well has a 3/8" diameter hole which exposes the unmolested chamber of what is apparently a replacement C.G. Haenel bbl. Bbl retention pin is solidly affixed in place but shows evidence of having been removed at some point in the past. External SNs do not match. Buttstock hardware is numbered "46". Bolt SN does not match receiver or buttstock, but does match operating piston. Both of these pieces are Haenel manufacture. Buttstock is of the later lower profile type, 4-3/4" from heel to toe. Muzzle nut retaining plunger and spring and retaining pin not present. Three "MP-44" marked magazines included. Also included is one spare mainspring. This is a National Firearms Act item and requires BATF approval prior to transfer. This weapon is fully transferable on an ATF form 3 or 4 as Curio & Relic eligible. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is good with significant portions of orig finish turning a pleasing grey/brown patina with light corrosion and pitting. Very good mechanics with strong bright bore with minor pitting. Wood is very good to fine with some dings and handling marks, but very strong and serviceable. Magazine finish ranges from good to very fine. The German MP-44 is the granddaddy of all modern assault rifles which pioneered the used of an "intermediate" sized cartridge effective at long range yet shorter length and lighter to carry. This rifle is a specimen of an important step in modern warfare doctrine and design. 52520-5 JWK76 (22,000-30,000)
