Short Barrelled MGC P38... Any Ideas???

Post by richard jones

Any ideas on this weird looking MGC P38 please?

Has short barrell,cut down hammer and a groove/slot in the grip frame for what looks like some sort of butt or stock????

I have a complete military MGC P38 in bits(snapped frame)that im hoping i can use the bits to turn this weird P38 into a complete piece.

I think this is MGC P38 "Uncle" (I don't know if this is uncle or ancle or other spelling). MGC sold this model together with T-shape stock, long mag and scope set.

Thanks again for the quick response Shazib

I think shazhib is spot on, take a look at these photos...





The fully kitted U.N.C.L.E. guns had a shoulder stock and telescopic type sights as extras too.

Those were the days when TV was worth watching

Thanks Cerwyn,similar but not exact.

Will have to try to dig out my P38 bits and get working

Just noticed that the lower pic looks like a converted Bruni? blank firing P38

I too was going to say that it is an UNCLE model. I would imagine that getting the surpressor would be the hardest part to find, unless you have one made, but you never know what might turn up.

Thanks Cerwyn for the link.

Wasnt realy thinking of restoring it back to an UNCLE prop but to more of a WW2 looking P38

On some photos the P-38 looks like the Bruni BBM 8 mm K blank pistol, see the screw that holds the safety lever. So the special supressors are made for converting those Bruni guns I'd say.
