Rekraps Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 This site is wonderful for checking the status of your MP38 or MP40. I used it to verify data points on my gun prior to purchase. Mine is listed... bnz 1159 website is https://www.mp40.nl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSMGguy Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 (edited) Great resource! Mine's listed also, 2979 b. I initially thought that the suffix was an f and reported it a such. The gun was reported to the website owner a number of years ago. Edited January 28 by TSMGguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rekraps Posted January 29 Author Report Share Posted January 29 I think this registry is for C&R only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68coupe Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 Isn't C&R a US only thing? I've always understood it to be a particular type of FFL, which streamlines and/or simplifies transfers. My humble opinion, Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MS Collector Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 While I can't speak for the Dutch guy whos own the website and collects the data, my sense is that he is only interested in examples of original WWII production guns to add to his database. For those of us here in the US, that would mean he is not interested in "tube" guns. I believe he would be interested in "transferables" (assuming the gun utilizes an original WWII receiver) and, as noted, what we call "Curio and Relic" guns under the federal law definitions we operate under. With a huge majority of the guns listed as being matching numbers, my sense is that he really wants data on guns that have survived with their major components intact and matching. This is just my opinion based on what I observed when looking over the Dutch website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MS Collector Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 And, no - I was not aware of this Dutch guy's efforts and database; thanks for posting! I checked and my (incoming) C&R MP38 (27 code 1940 #687b) is not on the list. When it finally arrives I'll make a report to this guy. Very frustrating paper transfer that took right at 1 year to get approved (12/4/25) but Seller has still not received the approved paperwork via US Mail as of today . . . so I still don't have an MP38 in the collection! An even worse situation for me is a C&R MP40 (bnz 43 #1726 N) approved in May, 2024 (paper transfer) and the paperwork has never arrived at the Seller's mailbox. Once we hit the approximate 1 year mark post-submission and had heard nothing, I made inquiry to NFA Branch; that is when I found out that the transfer had been approved almost 7 months earlier! Request for certified copy of approved transfer was submitted 12/12/24 and acknowleded as having been received, but thus far no certified copy has been forthcoming (although a very nice lady at NFA Branch said it could take "up to 45 days" for a response). I had no choice but to do paper transfers on both of these, as both sellers were non-SOT individuals. The MP40 was a complicated multi-layered "old estate" situation where gun was registered to the 1968 Amnesty registrant (the WWII vet who brought it back) so a bunch of estate paperwork, affidavits, materials re: relevant state laws of intestate succession, etc. was submitted. At the opposite end of the spectrum, middle of last year I had an MG08 e-transfer from my local SOT to me in 3.5 days (one of which was a federal holiday) . . . so I've had some recent great experiences with fast approvals, as well as some not-so-great experiences. Oh well . . . . all just part of the hobby! Again, thanks for alerting everyone to the MP38, et al, database. And, yes - I found it very interesting that virtually all of the reported MP38's were "all matching" guns (as is incoming #687b). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My humble opinion, Karl What meant by that was I'm not sure he registers "Tube" guns, like Wilson. The registry I see only shows original German manufactured MP38 and MP40 guns, with German upper and lowers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
