First is what pouches will fit those mags but once you can find ones that fit you're set for that. eg. Try to see if P90/ump mags will fit the MP40 mags.

Second is that EBB is weak sauce. Seriously don't get it if you're looking for blowback/recoil effect if you are then either running a classic (HPA) or GBBR is the way to go. EBB is cool and a novelty but it's just annoying and irritating at least in my experience.

AFAIK there's no safety, which I would see as an issue. I'm not quite fond of SRC myself, but to each their own.

Third link after searching "SRC MP40 review" was this: http://oifveteran.hubpages.com/hub/S...ric-Gun-Review

I have used both, and I own an AGM. The EBB is meh, whatever. Kinda cool at first, then becomes a gimmick. The SRC externals are a little nicer, just little things mostly. On the SRC it has a metal barrel nut, the AGM uses a glued on plastic one. The barrel nut holds on half the outer barrel, so having it secured with a metal nut is better. Also the stock is a bit stronger, and the AGM has no spring to keep the charging handle either forwards or backwards, so it slide back and forth on its own until you get sick of it and mod a spring or elastic to make it stay. On the other hand the SRC uses proprietary mags, unless you mod some AGM or King Arms mags to work. Not super hard, but it takes time.

That depends. What do you have inside the gearbox. If you are planning on leaving it bone stock I would say the SRC. Of course most of the stuff you buy brand new will need to be downgraded so you will have to open up the gearbox anyway. I havent seen the inside of an SRC MP40 gearbox, and my AGM is at least five years old, so even if I did its not a fair comparison. However mine isnt stock, and while its not the most amazing peice I have, its also not even close to the worst. And I kinda like my WWII submachine guns to be a little like the real ones, slow and sloppy. I mean you point rather than aim them anyway.
