I going to show you the mgc mp40, one of the most famous modelgun in the world. i think every enthusiast desparately want to get this until they die. Here is what we called standard model, can you distinguish the difference between blowback model and standard model? first pic is the original mgc box for mp40(standard model) Can you believe this mint condition? I never touch with my bare hand. mgc mp40 doesn't look black steel but purple. also magazine, latest magazine is black. mgc original manual and repro manual. Beautiful bolt! i don't have the courage to shoot. check the right pic, there are 2 different detonator, open type and cp type. Well did you enjoy the pics, i hope you did!!! thank you francky

Offset Ejector makes 1 feed rail possible. Charging Handle on MGC bolts is cast with the bolt as one piece. Safety switch is not functional
