Ahhh...I like the way you allowed the suspense to build up, Marco, before delivering the punch line Certainly a cut above japes like '"Pull my finger..!" etc., I assumed this MP40 is a replica, or deactivated. It is possible to buy MP40s chambered for .22 (legally in Switzerland), but most EU countries have fairly strict gun laws, including the Netherlands.

Thanks mister!

It's a replica, for which I own the proper licence.

If I'm not mistaken, thats a 6mm firing MP40
The single/full auto selector is a dead give-away (Have the same one myself )

Would that be the same as this 6mm Airsoft one, Arnie? This is described for some reason as an 'assault rifle'. You'd think that 'MP' (Machine Pistol) would have given the vendor a clue....

Yep. Thats the one
Notice the on/off switch under the pistol grip

But dont blame the vendors of Airsoft weapons. They dont really care that much about the classification, just that there are people who wants to buy it
