I can remember visiting Sarco on numerous occasions. One trip was to buy an MP40 Kit, (pre 86). There were hundreds and hundred of cardboard boxes stacked along a wall. Each contained an almost pristine, matching MP40 parts kit with a torch cut receiver and one magazine for $110. The MP38 kits were $130!!

Those, indeed, were the days!

Prices went up by 1990...Here's an old receipt I found that shows a 'kit' for a lot more...

Notice the address of the company, compared to Sarco's address...
