This Chester County Armory listing is for a fantastic condition Smith & Wesson Model 76 9x19mm Parabellum Curio & Relic license eligible NFA transferable submachine gun.
The Model 76 SMG was originally created by Smith & Wesson engineers in 1967 by basically reverse-engineering the renowned Swedish K submachine gun. These models was developed specifically to fill an urgent need to supply US Navy Seals with a domestic-made, rugged and reliable SMG for use in Vietnam after Sweden had refused any more sales of the Carl Gustaf m/45 to the US in the 1960’s. This was due to its objection of the SMG’s expected use in a war zone while Sweden was insistent on remaining a neutral country. This C&R eligible machine gun is in its original factory configuration, with folding stock, 8″ barrel, and parkerized finish. It is a late production version, as this model is serial no. 5157 of only 6100 that were manufactured. It will come with one 36rd magazine.
This S&W M76 SMG is in excellent cosmetic and mechanical condition. Mechanically, the weapon is outstanding with only minor wear markings noted on the metal-to-metal contact points of the bolt assembly and receiver tube. The bolt notes only minor finish wear. The bolt face is clean and crisp. The trigger mechanism notes very little wear and the bore remains bright and shiny with crisp, clean rifling. The metalwork is solidly intact, with no dents, dings, gouges, scratches, malformations, etc. This model has been test-fired and runs flawlessly with factory-grade, SAAMI spec 9mm NATO ammunition.
Cosmetically, the parkerization of the weapon is in overall excellent condition, with only minute minor handling marks observed in the original finish. The black polymer furniture is in excellent. well above average condition with only minor marks at the stock closing mechanism observed in the gloss finish of the grips. The original fire selector switch displays minor markings in the receiver at the metal-to-metal contact points of the selector switch. These markings are universally inherent to the operational design of the weapon’s selector and safety engagement.
This Smith & Wesson Inc. factory transferable machine gun is currently on a Form 3 for easy transfer. The current NFA paperwork lists “SMITH & WESSON” as the manufacturer and “76” as the model. Due to it’s production age, this model is Curio & Relic license eligible.
