This is a Soviet Russian PPSh-41 machine gun which was originally manufactured in 1944 by the Vyatskie Polyany factory as indicated by the star within the shield marking. This is one of the major manufacturers of this machine gun during WWII. The year of manufacture is visible directly below this marking on the top of the receiver. Subsequently, this gun was remanufactured by an American machine gun manufacturer and registered as fully transferable. Serial numbers are matching on upper receiver, trigger guard, and on left side of the stock as well. Lower assembly tang is a renumber to match the other numbers. Electropencil barrel serial number does not match. One 71 round drum magazine and three curved stick magazines are included. Although over 5 million of these guns were manufactured in Soviet Russia, they are rather scarce as a fully transferable machine gun in the National Firearms Act registry. Electronic NFA registry indicates “FORM 2 REGISTRATION” as the manufacturer. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is near excellent as refinished. Wood stock has also been lightly sanded and refinished. Drum and magazine finish is extremely fine to near excellent. Bore is near excellent, shiny, and bright. Bolt is extremely fine and in-the-white. Mechanics are crisp. This is a select-fire machine gun. A fine collector’s item as well as a great recreational machine gun for the machine gun enthusiast. THIS IS A NATIONAL FIREARMS ACT ITEM AND REQUIRES BATF APPROVAL PRIOR TO TRANSFER. THIS ITEM IS FULLY TRANSFERABLE ON AN ATF FORM 3 OR 4. JWK 2021-11-073
