The one German gun I've always wanted was the MP41. I like the fuctionality of the MP40, but I've always liked wood-stocked weapon better.
Perhaps an idea for a conversion, warren? The working parts, well, essentially all of the gun could be ACM MP40, with a plastic or wood rifle stock - easily made from a spare MP001 stock. What does everyone think?
The reason I put it up here, is that I'm pretty crap with this stuff, and would balls it up. 
I know someone on this forum who is building one for himself....
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
nice idea, i might have to have a look into it.
i haven't dismantled my mp40 yet though to see if there's anything inside the main trigger grip that would get in the way?
If it's doable, I think it would be smart as - and if anyone was thinking of making and selling one, I'd be interested!
Hows the Nagant coming along, mate?

the MP001 mechanism is in the stock and working, so that's all fitted, at the moment i'm just working on cutting out the magazine housing, then i just need to make a replacement outer barrel of the right size so the front end looks the part.
it's getting there! 
Nice one. I used to do Soviet kit exclusively, so I'm especially interested in this. Looking forward to seeing the end result!
funny that mate i,v got some stocks on order for this very gun
same for the ppsh mags for the thompson drum mags,
i wasant planing on doing many but about 4-5,
team shoot and scoot, TL
i too like the mp41, but it wont go with the panzer loadout i do.
great idea to make one though

dm, mostly just the on/off swich at the base of the grips, that would be easy to relocate,

I would LOVE an MP41 for my LFD impression - fancy selling it if you make it?... 
Nice one mate!
A guy in Germany did a conversion as well:

i hate to resurrect a dead thread here but if anyone has or can do a custom made mp41 i will most certainly buy one from them
i bought a g41 wooden stock off a guy in poland . he sells mp41 stocks too, just look on ebay 
appaerently the agm mp40 gos in quite easy

Nice manual! 
Does it exists(or existed) with laminated stock like the G43, and kar98K?
Because if I can get a ruined MP40(or even the front, and above parts of the receiver) I may make one with my V7 box, and custom long nozzle(I don't want to use the original box because M14's is much better). I want to use laminated light brown stock(I have spare laminated beech wood from my SV98 project).

If you need to ask any questions if I can answer them ask away

As it was produced at the early years of war I am sure that the stock was not made of plywood or similar solid wood substitute. Laminated stocks were introduced with the shortage of thick and long pieces of solid wood (approx '43)

In that case I may have to use walnut.
I bored out from beech(thet would be the third beech airsoft stock).
