MP40 is definitely not something you want as a back up weapon to go with a BA rifle. MP40 is really a primary when it comes to size, weight, range etc. Sten is a bit smaller/lighter but than again, it's also a primary, plus airsoft Sten performs worse than decent GBB pistol when it comes to accuracy and range. Only advantage Sten has over GBB pistol I can think of is mag capacity. Group I'm with does WW2 reenactment, some of our events are airsoft, so I do have a bit of experience with MP40 and going up against people with Sten guns. Your best option is getting a pistol as a back up. Lots of options available if you want to choose from WW2 handguns. C96, P38, P08, TT, 1911 etc. One of the guys I know ran C96 as his primary last year. Not very authentic during WW2 event but he was getting kills with it.
