The MP44 isn't something you'll find for just a few hundred, or even few thousand dollars. An Authentic MP44 is going to cost anywhere between $20K and $40K. That's the same as the national annual average income.
It fires 7.92x33MM "Kurts" (Thats German for 'Short') Ammunition can probably be had for $20 bucks for a box of 20. Plus, an authentic one that hasn't been modified for semi-auto only will have to be registered with the ATF (Alcohol Tobacco Firearms) as Full-auto firearms are illegal to own in some states. To make matters worse, Importing firearms into the U.S. often "Neuters" the weapon, meaning, it can't have a pistol grip, and can only accept 10 round Magazines.
And, just incase your wondering. Your chances of getting anything after november will be severely limited once our Oh-So-Sweet Senator Barrack Obama gets into office and Bans all importation of ammunition, or firearms, or most likely both.
Have a Nice day.

MP-44 is not a made up name.. STG-44 was the official designation, but on papers it was the MP-44.
