Magazine That Came w/Toy Gun

Take a close look at the follower. If you can see any daylight through it, or can see into it in any way, then it is a replica.

Real MP 40 magazines have nicely made, fully formed followers that you cannot see through or into. Replica followers are just a folded over strip of metal.

Replica magazines are also slightly oversized and will have trouble fitting into a real MP40.

They are even copying all markings and waffenampts on replicas today.
