**MINT**1939 Winter War & WW2 Era 1936 Dated Russian DP-28, 7.62x 54R Calibre Light Machine Gun With Finland Capture ‘SA’ Marked Pan Magazine With VKT (Finnish state rifle factory "Valtion Kivääritehdas") Inspection Mark & Bi-Pod**UK 2011 DEACTIVATION** - 21681:4
The Russian Degtyaryov DP-28 machine gun (Degtyaryov's infantry machine gun) is a light machine gun firing the 7.62×54mmR cartridge that was used primarily by the Soviet Union starting in 1928. The DP had a reputation as an effective light support weapon. It was nicknamed the "Record player" (proigryvatel) by Red Army troops because the disc-shaped pan magazine resembled a gramophone record and its top cover revolved while the weapon was fired. After WW2 the Chinese Communists used the DP in the Korean War and copied the DPM as the Type 53. A number of the RP-46 variant of the DP have been spotted in present day Somalia, in use with militant forces and also among rebel forces in the 2011 Libyan uprising to overthrow Muammar Gaddafi. The Winter War was a war between the Soviet Union and Finland. It began with a Soviet invasion of Finland on 30 November 1939, three months after the outbreak of World War II, and ended three and a half months later with the Moscow Peace Treaty on 13 March 1940. This is a near mint 1936 dated Russian DP-28. It has all original wood and metal work which retains its original finish. The wood shoulder stock has its original integral oil container with steel screw top lid and integral applicator brush. It is complete with original bi-pod and removable 47 round pan magazine (the rear sight block is pulled to the rear to release the magazine). The magazine is stamped with ‘VKT’ inspection mark (VKT is the Finnish state rifle factory "Valtion Kivääritehdas") and has an ‘SA’ mark indicating winter war capture by Finnish forces. The gun has sling swivels, an adjustable tangent rear sight winged fore sight and cone muzzle flash eliminator. The metal is nicely marked with '1936' date together with number ‘7221’ which is repeated on the bolt. It has a 28” barrel and measures 50 ¼” overall.

WW2 British Sten MK II 9mm SMG By SECO S109 (Sterling Eng Co, Dagenham), Magazine By E & Co (Elkington & Company) With Removable Skeleton Stock, Rare To Find Original Replacement Pistol Grip & MK 1 Spike Bayonet With Scabbard & Sling**EARLY UK DEACT** - 21681:2
The 9mm Sten was mass produced from pressed metal parts as an urgent production for the British War effort. The British Army has a long held penchant for the bayonet and the MkII STEN was the first British Machine Carbine to fit one. Three companies made some 75,800 MkI STEN gun bayonets, these companies were: Grundy Ltd of Toddington, Lines Brothers of Merton and N.J. Edwards Ltd of Sutton. The vast majority of these were scrapped when it became obvious they were unnecessary and all but useless in combat. The STEN was far from an ideal bayonet fighting weapon. The Mk I Spike bayonet was as cheaply made as the gun it was made for. Consisting of several pieces of welded steel it was fixed to the STEN by a spring clip with a detent at the end which indexed with one of the holes in the STEN’s barrel nut / shroud (illustrated in image 1 is a contemporary photograph, taken August 1942, of a British officer armed with a MK II STEN equipped with a MK I spike bayonet.

Also with the SMG is an original replacement pistol grip easily attached to the gun by depression of a button at the rear of the action, which also facilitates removal of the skeleton stock.
