This video features a tour of Sport Systeme Dittrich, a German company specializing in high-quality reproductions of World War Two German rifles. The company previously manufactured PTR-44 Sturmgewehr copies and is now partnering with DK Production Group to import their firearms into the US. The BD-38 (MP38 copy) is the first model available, with the StG-44 reproduction planned for future release. The video highlights their manufacturing capabilities and upcoming products for the US market.
This video introduces the BD-38, a new semi-automatic production copy of the German MP-38 submachine gun. Made by SSD (Sport-Systeme Dittrich) and distributed in the US by DK Production Group, the BD-38 aims to fill a gap in the market for a faithful reproduction of this rare World War II firearm. The video highlights the key differences between the MP-38 and the more common MP-40, such as the fluted receiver cuts and lack of a safety. Despite internal modifications for closed-bolt hammer firing, the BD-38 reportedly maintains the handling and feel of the original. The author's personal experience with an SBR'd version is discussed, along with the pistol configuration option to avoid NFA regulations. The BD-38 is chambered in 9x19mm and uses original MP38/MP40 magazines.
This video features a review and shooting demonstration of the Sport Systeme Dittrich BD-38, a semiautomatic reproduction of the German MP-38 submachine gun. The presenter highlights the Dittrich company's reputation for producing highly accurate visual reproductions of WWII firearms, but notes potential reliability issues and the prohibitively high cost of these replicas. Due to its open-bolt design, the BD-38 is not importable into the US but was test-fired on Malta where ownership of automatic firearms is permitted. The video touches on the challenges manufacturers face in balancing accuracy demand with market viability for historical reproductions.
