US M3 "Grease Gun" SMG

Reproduction of submachine gun, made of metal, with simulated mechanism for loading and firing, mobile safe cover, removable magazine and retractable stock with double position.

The M3 was an automatic submachine gun designed in 1941 by George Hyde, an experienced gunsmith in the German army during the First World War and who in 1927 emigrated to the USA. The weapon was commissioned by the USA Army because of the effectiveness of the European submachine guns such as the German MP, or the British Sten, and also because of the production and cost problems of the Thompson M1928A1.

The aim of the M3 sub-machine gun was just the simplicity, it was a completely metallic weapon that had a telescopic stock and an ejection window for the removal of the fired cartridges, which in turn acted as a safe against possible falls or blows that accidentally fired the weapon.

The M3 gained the sympathies of the soldiers and became popular as the "Grease Gun" (grease gun). This denomination comes from its resemblance to the pressure greasers used by mechanics in the maintenance of heavy war machines. 

Prices includes gun, magazine and FREE UK postage.
