This practice required proper registration of automatic weapons in accordance with the <a href="/wiki/National_Firearms_Act" title="National Firearms Act">National Firearms Act</a> before they could be imported, but this was curtailed later in the occupation, meaning a relatively small number of civilian-transferable original German MP 40s remain in circulation and are valued at around $20,000-37,500 as of 2021, with some selling for almost $50,000.<a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> After the commercial importation of complete machine guns was banned by the <a href="/wiki/Gun_Control_Act_of_1968#Import_restrictions" title="Gun Control Act of 1968">Gun Control Act of 1968</a>, MP 40 <a href="/wiki/Parts_kit" title="Parts kit">parts kits</a> (the disassembled parts of the gun excluding the receiver tube) were imported and reassembled onto receivers manufactured in the United States by Charles Erb, Wilson Arms, and others.<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a> These remanufactured legally transferable machine guns, colloquially called "tube guns", are (depending on quality of construction and condition) generally valued at 50-75% of the price of original German MP 40s, as they do not have their historical background.<a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a> As such, they are commonly used for recreational range shooting and WW2 <a href="/wiki/Historical_reenactment" title="Historical reenactment">historical reenactments</a>, because the associated wear and tear (within reasonable limits) will not significantly diminish their value, as it would on original collectible examples.
