In today's unboxing video we take a look at the MP 40P from ATI. The MP 40 is as classic gun which was made popular through the rise of Nazi Germany. The Germans initially manufactured the guns to be full auto and used as an intermediate weapon. Being chambered in 9mm made the 8-lb rifle extremely accurate, even on full auto. They were only produced for a short period of time, from 1940-1945. It’s estimated that over 1,000,000 Mascinenpistole 40 were produced during this time.

These days it’s extremely rare and expensive to own an authentic MP 40. You’ll likely have to pay $20,000 - $30,000 to get one authentic. In addition, you’ll also need the tax stamp and all the paperwork that goes with it. That’s why we’re ditching the authentic version to show you the ATI GSG MP 40.

German Sport Guns manufacturers the guns in Oesterweg so you still have some authentic Deutchland connection. They are imported by ATI for sale stateside, but for a fraction of the cost of the real thing. The gun is still heavy, weighing in at 7.4-lbs unloaded, but just like the real thing this only aids in the accuracy of the gun.

Just like the real thing this gun is chambered in 9mm and comes with one 25-round magazine. The one big notable difference between the two designs is that the ATI version lacks a stock, making it a pistol. Of course, you’re not going to get the famous full-auto either but at least you’ll save money on ammo. Speaking of, thank you to Aguila for providing ammo for this display.

All in all, this gun shot great and ate through all the Aguila we could feed it. It’s a fun gun, something to take to the range with your buddies and shoot all day. It’s an accurate gun and with the 9mm chambering it’s affordable to shoot as well.
