Well it was a proper attachment, look below.
...bloody Stalinist lackies, breaking decent burp guns
PPSh-41 of the Glorious Red Army much better burp gun than Fascist MP-40, especially with 71 round drum.
The Germans reworked thousands of them and rechambered large numbers of them in 9mm Parabellum and the Wehrmact officially issued them as the MP41(r), unconverted PPSh-41s were designated MP717(r) and supplied with 7.63x25mm Mauser ammunition.
Ah - but the saucepan metal PPSh-41 was nothing but a crude copy of the excellent Suomi KP/31 - made in the Tikka factory - they made sure that the majority of Soviet invaders were given a warm welcome by the Finns, and that they had sufficient land to be buried under.
And if the reception party felt really generous, the Finns even provided cocktails
1 Molotov Cocktail, to go, for the Russian gentleman in the fur hat sitting in his staff car - best served Flambé'd to keep out the cold

Nah. Faux suppressor kills it for me. That would have been a definite purchase.

...chop 114mm off & the barrel will be 12" UK length - BUT - what length is the fake suppressor?
Made over-length to suit the USA 16" min. bbl. length rules
Would like to see a UK marketed MP41 version too

That looks very nice indeed, better without the fake mod but with the longer barrel
