The MP38, 40, 40/1 and 41 Submachinegun (The Propaganda Photo Series)

This book is the first detailed publication on the famous submachinegun that (under his incorrect nickname "Schmeisser") became a symbol of the Blitzkrieg as the favorite small arm of armored units and parachutists. But despite its fame, reliable information was until now very scarce. In this book, the history and development of the MP38, MP40 and MP41 are described for the first time. Moreover, several prototypes and rare variants are depicted, including the MP38(L) and the MP40/1 with dual feed system.
