My grandfather was familiar with those, he fought on the Finnish side and used captured ppsh 41’s

Cheers and thanks for the comment. Yes they were favourites when used by other armies, the germans loved them, they have a high fire rate. I'm quite pleased with the way the replica has turned out, all the best 🙂🙂🙂

Great video mate, i have a deact version & your denix looks remarkably like an original, i would go as far as saying the denix ppsh is the best model they make. I also have a deact Thompson 1921, the denix Thompson drum mag fits it aswell, it was a wee but tight to get back off, so i took a file to the mag & took a tiny bit & its perfect now, you have to be very carful as the metal is very soft

Cheers Paul and thanks for the comment m8....I'd agree the denix ppsh41 is the best one they make and I'm pleased with the look of mine....you never know I might get the sten next...yeh the metal is alloy I think....all the best to you 🙂🙃🙂

I've got some rounds for the PPSH. think they are polish inert ones. I'll send you a box once I'm back in the UK ( June time )

No worries KTM....thanks for that m8...thats excellent 🙂🙂🙂.....what a difference the real magazine makes and with inert rounds it will be even heavier.....or maybe more substantial, it doesn't feel like a model anymore if you get my drift , thanks KTM have a safe trip back in June 🙂

The machine gun looks awesome mate and the sling really makes it pop ! I have a couple of Denix pistols and they are superb !! Wonderful that the original mag fits.. I bet the people that followed the advice on that forum are really angry !! lol
