BD 38 (semi-automatic MP38 replica) shooting

All SSD semi-automatics are available on request as repeaters for the yellow WBK!

The BD 38 from Sport Systeme Dittrich is an authentic replica of the MP 38. You can't get closer to the original - the same manufacturing methods and, where possible, the same types of steel were used as in the original. All parts were manufactured as in the original, stamped, forged, die-forged, or milled and tempered as well as coated. The stock and grip panels are made of Bakelite, while the grip and the iconic barrel support are made of anodized aluminum. The stock is, of course, foldable as per the original.

The famous MP38 can certainly be considered the first submachine gun of the second generation - modern, relatively compact weapons with folding stocks and new materials - Bakelite and aluminum. Based on the MP36, which was only produced as a prototype, the MP38 was a high-quality weapon with a massive, milled housing and high-quality finish. For wartime production, this was naturally too elaborate, and the successor, the archetypal MP40, featured a simpler construction with a stamped housing. But it is precisely the high manufacturing quality of the MP38 that makes this replica from SSD so special.

Due to the age of the original weapon, this replica is approved for hunters and sport shooters! We offer the BD 38 as standard in the more precise "auf schießend" variant, while the "zu schießend" variant corresponds to the original firing system and is available for order.

What is "auf schießend," what is "zu schießend"?
"Auf schießend" refers to a bolt that is in the front (closed) position when the trigger is pulled. This is the standard for the majority of all firearms. "Zu schießend" refers to a bolt that is in the rear (open) position when the trigger is pulled and only moves forward by releasing the trigger catch, feeding the cartridge from the magazine, and firing in the front position. This is the standard for weapons designed for high automatic firing loads, machine guns, and classic submachine guns with mass bolts. Due to the mass moving forward and the delay in releasing the trigger, this variant is less precise but corresponds to the original functional principle of the MP 38.

Please note:
The claim of this weapon is that of a qualitatively and technically high-quality replica of a mass-produced military weapon from wartime production! It is not a high-gloss polished luxury rifle.
