Furthermore, The Itallian Beretta Model of 1918 beat the MP.18.I into service by several weeks in early 1918. And I won't even touch your stupid atom bomb claim, because I'm not going to argue conspiracy theories with a neo-nazi. In Hitler's Bombe, Rainer Karlsch posits that an atomic weapon was tested in 1945, but the(PTB, Federal Physical and Technical Institute) tested soil samples in the area of the alleged test, and in 2006 it issued its results: keinen Befund (nothing found).
Questo fu uno degli erori della Germania nazista, pare sponsorizzato dal potentissimo Herman Goering e dal suo capo che vedeva nella nuova munizione intermedia qualcosa che andava bene solo per difendersi, mentre la Wehrmacht doveva sempre e solamente attaccare, fu il capostipite dei fucili tipo FAL che tutto erano tranne fucili d'assalto.
@esclusivi" F" allschirmjäger "G" ewehr modell 42 kinda bad controlable while bursts it wasnt liked much by the troops tough its massive metal buttstock and the hard recoil....although it delivered quitete good lead in Target wherever a lmg like the 34 or 42 wasnt in reach...there were 3 versions each with a foldable bipod..i like the sound ..must been demoralising when this is fired at you...
@FunkfeuerOtto My info is that most troops issued with this rifle ie Para's, used it in single shot mode and saw it as a very high quality auto loader with a rapid fire capability if needed. Like when you are about to be overrun. It fired from a closed bolt in auto load and was as a consequence accurate, as troops who faced this weapon at Mt Cassino found out. German Para's made a nightmare of themselves..
@hogiesanKenobi ...thats what the green devils should do...making a nighrmare for the opponent....At least all troops were relieved by every additional Firepower,as you mentioned, single shots were quiete accurate, but bursts hard to controll.
@FunkfeuerOtto No worries Otto .I try to tell the truth. Sometimes it is a hard commodity to find.Elite troops are just that . They always give a good account in contact .Just look at how world military is today - conscript troops are a thing of the past- they are ineffective,only highly trained soldiers have any chance of good combat performance .
@FunkfeuerOtto In fact the FG barely kicks when firing on single shots. Full auto burst are a the problems, but that's why the bipod is. The FG was one of the first multi-purpose automatic rifles. It had decent accuracy, selective fire, bipod, scope attachment, low recoil on single shots. It wasn't perfect or cheap, but it wasn't meant for everybody. My only complaint is that the barrel is too short, the 8mm round needs at least a 600mm barrel in order to reach a peak ballistic effectivity.
i go with you.it wasnt meant for everybody in first but when the "greatestleaderofalltimes" saw it during a personal presenation by H. Göring he stated euphrically this rifle should the past war basic armnament of german Wehrmacht.Hitler always reasoned about the "long arm of the infantry" in form of the 7.98 Bullet.So he favored the FG42 in first even as the MKB 42(later STGW34- MP44) came up because its shortened bullet.Better how things came up indeed...!
@FunkfeuerOtto Well, the very few FG-42s that fell on Wehrmacht soldier's hands were well received, they like the rifle. As for the MP-43, Adolf rejected it at the beginning, partially because he was a WWI veteran with WWI concepts still on his mind, but also he wanted to establish the 7.92x57mm round as the universal standard of all armed forces rifles and MGs for preventing a mess with logistics, hopefully realized the potential of the MP-44 seen that it had success on the battlefield.
i want to buy a fg42 semi atomatic ,but if the ammo is for 1 time use then it is too expensive for me to shoot whit €0.85 to €0.95 per schot 8mm mauser here in holland
Non è stata sviluppata perchè soppiantata dal stg44 e famiglia, ossia dai fucili d'assalto. L' FG42 era sovrapotenziata (usando le munizioni del mauser) per il suo peso. Era precisa finchè si usava un bipiede, ma sparando in movimento o senza appoggiarsi sparava dove voleva lei. Però è stata una vera innovazione il fatto che le mire siano state rialzate in modo che la canna si trovi all'altezza della spalla, riducendo il rinculo.
These FG-42s were a nice idea. Open bolt when on full auto and closed bolt on semi auto. The reason being to prevent cook-offs on auto and be more accurate on semi.
The thing is, the automatic mode was made more for when lying flat with the bipod open.
This thing is in 8mm Mauser, not something to be shot on full auto standing.
Such a rare gun, and such a cool concept. There was a lot of neat firearms back in WWII.
yeah, and WWII was a turning point in the way warfare was conducted. In the wars fought after WWII there wasn't a single solitary trench lines built like those in WWI, and that's because WWII was the birth of mobilized warfare. If wars were a good thing, WWII would be the best. By far.
the germans paved way for all the technology we have today!! the first flyable jet plane the first bolt action rifle the first sub machine gun the first assault rifle the first heavy machine gun for single soldier use the first tank with tracks instead of wheels the first night vision (goggles & scopes) the first "telescopic sight" (scope) the most controvesial... the first atom bomb (they designed 2, but couldnt finish them in time before the war ended, they were both siezed by the US)
well the germans didnt made the first assault rifle...the russians did. they made a prototype of the ak47 and the germans tryed to make an assault rifle like it..than they developed the mp44..im not sure but i think the germans have stolen some blue prints from the russians..thats why it looks like the ak
@TheFury6666 No. The Sturmgewehr 44 came before the AK47. Kalashnikov modeled the AK47 after the Sturmgewehr because of its effectiveness in the field. Also, don't be so ignorant as to ignore the model numbers of the guns- 44 and 47; the last time I checked, 1944 came before 1947.
concentration camps are an invention of the british empire, what do you think did they do with all the indian people? ohh and the africans, and the australians, end all thgose asians they killed....hmmmm makes me wonder whos the most badass in the world
what???africans were slaves, not in concetration camps, the indians that road around in the wild west were killed off by the americans, not some british concentration camp
besides ur are forgeting that alot of the african slaves were bought fromarab and ottman traders who capture the africans
@nle4lyfe Actually first SMG, (not first effective, but first) Was of Italian make. It was a monstrossity of a gun but it was the first. The MP 18 was not the first SMG
@Jorgmandr submachinegun: A machinegun that shoots a pistol round. The Villar-Perosa was the first one that did this. The original VP was a twin-barreled machinegun that shot pistol round, meant for aircrafts and to be mounted on tripods. The MP-18 was the first practical, shoulder fired smg to be ever desinged (1916 to be more exact), but the italians were faster by issuing a single barreled, shoulder fired version of the VP, some weeks before the MP-18 was officially adopted.
i go with you...!VP was mounted on bicycles to increase mobility... MP 18 , designed by Bergmann and Schmeisser had its nickname "Grabenbesen" in english "trenchbroom" for its capability of denying stormattacks by brushing them outta the trench after they breached in...but it was also pistol caliber so for me the french Lewis or the american BAR shouldnt be untold when thinking about the first shoulder firable automatik guns..
they made the first telescopic sight in the beginning of ww1, and actually sold over 100,000's of them to England in exchange for wheat and other imports Germany needed at the time, later sales stopped as Germany continued on in the war
after Hitler approved of the use of the STG44 by troops, he then approved the use of the first Night Vision sights which had been first developed by Germany as well
first atom bomb... if u DESIGN something.. YOU created it.. not who completed it
@nle4lyfe the german and american plans to build the atom bomb were completely independent of each other. the german design may have been there, but they didnt have the technology to complete it. they didnt create it at all.
wrong again, after the russians invaded germany, the found many plants that they thought were to be weapons factorys, but turned out to be entirely used to develope Uranium
Einstein denied involvement on working on the German atom bombs, but he was known to have worked on weapon experiments for the Nazi's and would of had access to their atom bombs as well
Russians claimed to have captured 1 atom bomb, but it was disposed of wayyy before the americans even started planning
Einstein wrote a letter to Roosevelt warning him of germanys aim to build an atom bomb. Einstein was an American citizen in 1940, so yes i am sure he worked on nuclear bombs for the Nazis.
also are you trying to tell me that Russia, a country in ww2 that was trying to spread communism through the world, and was involved in many conflicts would "dispose" of the most powerful weapon ever? didnt think so.
@nle4lyfe bull shit. the first tank was the british WW1 tank, the nuklear bomb was developed by Einstein for the USA and the first SMG was the Thompson used by: USA... There you go
wrong again... the Germans developed the first tank to be used, altho it had no main gun... it was greatly used for transporting troops into action
the NUCLEAR bomb (spelled it right for u) was originally designed for years before the US hired Einstein (whom is originally from Germany, and actually had worked on several projects for the Nazi's)
and the Thompson was designed to fight back against Nazi Mp44 smg's
@DamJeu42 wrong first word submachine gun was the italian Revelli Villarperosa and was PATENTED in april 1914, and first saw action in 1915, also the modification of this weapon (OVP villar perosa and beretta mab18) saw action before the MP 18
@nle4lyfe Thompson was developed first in the 1920s as a "sub machine gun. the mp44/stg44 was first developed in the 1940s as an assault rifle (the first assaultrifle) officialy addopted by the german army in 1944 (mp44). the german tank that you spoke of was not a tank but an armoured viechle or APC. A tank has commbat as first and only task. (British WW1 tank) google it... however the nuke you may be right about...
@fucksplash stg 44 was first deployed by germany in 1942 either as MKB 42 H or W machinen karabine 42 (automatic carabine) H for the weapons produced by Heanel and W for the walter version, and was adopted next year (after field testing)under the disguise designation of MP43 (note in 1943 there where 2 different MP 43 but the later version was the production of the MP43/1 wich was found to be better then MP43)
@nle4lyfe No, now youre whong again. You se, the Thompson or Tommygun was first introduced in 1917, the mp40 is from 1940 but earlyer models (mp38,mp39) was in production from 1938. So, there you go.
@nle4lyfe The first Tank with treads actually produced were British experimental tanks that became the Mk.1. You could be referring to two designs by the Austrian engineering officer Günther Burstyn in 1911, but these were simply drawings. And the French had a tank design in 1903 that was abandoned. Also, he first documented telescopic rifle sight was invented between 1835 and 1840 by Morgan James of Utica, NY.
@nle4lyfe You forgot lederhosen, beer, those funny looking hats with the little sprig of eidelweiss stuck in the brim, cuckoo clocks, kinky spanking, polka music and lint traps in clothes dryers. Many people believe the lint trap was invented by an American but it was actually stolen by them after the war.
Yea, nice way of focusing on the positive things. You could have brought up medical progress, albeit their means of gathering it were horrible, but you just bring up more and more things men has devised to wreak havoc and destruction on each other.
@nle4lyfe-I think you're going to be hard pressed to find a single document saying that the germans had the first atom bomb. The US had it first, the concept was stolen by germany, it had to have been, because if they did germany would have gotten the A-bom first.
@Optimusprimemc1 Lols. No one "stole" any concept that was a natural progression of scientific advancement. Stop making stupid assertions based on erroneous assumptions and look it up. Germany had a nuclear program but suffered from insufficient resources.
@trulynot i remember reading somewhere that Hitler turned down a new type of bomb with near unlimited destructive power, based on Physics hypothesis, in 1937, the project was restarted later during the War, but too late to yield results. The film (movie) The Heroes of Telemark (in Norway), tells a very good story.
@Optimusprimemc1 Lols. No one "stole" any concept that was a natural progression of scientific advancement. Stop making stupid assertions based on erroneous assumptions and look it up. Germany had a nuclear program but suffered from insufficient resources.
STG44 had more influence on the M16. The M16 borrowed the idea of a dust cover from the STG44. The thumb safety on the M16 was also probably borrowed from the STG44. The M16 and STG44 field very similarily. The STG44 had an upper and lower reciever just like the M16 did. The M16's upper and lower could be seperated though.
I don't see any flinching before he pulls the trigger. If he does make a nervous move, I think it's more to brace himself. Even with a spring-loaded stock and the muzzle-break, firing this gun on full auto must be a killer!
First of all, contrary to what a lot of plp think; It's NOT a recoil buffer in the FG42, its a big springcoil in front of the butt, but its part of the reloading mechanism, NOT a recoildamper. Flinching, (wich he does ), is not uncommon when shooting, but you have to learn not to, because you will shoot poorly. In the army we ad the AG3, aka H&K G36, wich has the same power and weight. The same problem with flinching occure on this gun for firsttimers on that gun.
From what I read up, the spring coil did help in reducing the recoil - or rather, the felt effect on the rifleman, since it and the gun's straight linear design would reduce the gun's impact on the firing shoulder.
Second, the AG-3 you described does not go under H&K G36, but H&K G3 - which is in both operation and caliber a completely different weapon. So better check your information again before you write it down for the public to read.
Third: Where exactly does he flinch before firing?
For f... sake I was refering to POWER, not the operation. If you didn't know, the 7,92 mauser round used in the FG42 is quite similar in POWER to 7,62 Nato, or .308, used in the G3 (sorry for the 6, my bad ).
If you read the exellent book "German automatic weapons of WWII", by R. Bruce, page 82, and I quote: " Incidentally, it is not true - as so often claimed - that the buttstock is springloaded to absorb recoil forces".
The FG42 operation is basicly the same as the WWI lewis, or post WWII m60, namely gas operated rotating bolt. The big thing about the FG42 is that you fire from an OPEN bolt at full auto, and at a CLOSED bolt on single shot. (can tell you WHY later, If you like ). The bolt is locked to the barrel when the round is fired, therefore NO RECOIL IS ABSORBED BY THE BUTTSTOCK COIL. However, when the bolt is released, i slides back to the same coil, stops, and is returned by the recoil spring.
No wonder with a full-powered 7.92mm Mauser cartridge. Why do you think the M14 got dropped out of the US arsenals after just 10 years of active service?
I would like to disagree with you on that. There are people out there who can actually control that weapon quite well on Full Auto. Granted it is difficult due to the high RoF, And caliber, But there are those out there who can pull it off. I know a man who can fire an M14 on full auto, And keep them all on target at 25m.
Geeez!
The recoil will hurt ur shoulder! Nice ting it got some spring shock absorber!

@nle4lyfe first tank - NO
first atom bomb - NO (i can design anything that doesnt mean im the first u need to complete it)
first telescopic sight - NO
where the hell did you get your facts
inglebert123 1 year ago
@inglebert123
they made the first telescopic sight in the beginning of ww1, and actually sold over 100,000's of them to England in exchange for wheat and other imports Germany needed at the time, later sales stopped as Germany continued on in the war
after Hitler approved of the use of the STG44 by troops, he then approved the use of the first Night Vision sights which had been first developed by Germany as well
first atom bomb... if u DESIGN something.. YOU created it.. not who completed it
nle4lyfe 1 year ago
@nle4lyfe the german and american plans to build the atom bomb were completely independent of each other. the german design may have been there, but they didnt have the technology to complete it. they didnt create it at all.

wrong again, after the russians invaded germany, the found many plants that they thought were to be weapons factorys, but turned out to be entirely used to develope Uranium
Einstein denied involvement on working on the German atom bombs, but he was known to have worked on weapon experiments for the Nazi's and would of had access to their atom bombs as well
Russians claimed to have captured 1 atom bomb, but it was disposed of wayyy before the americans even started planning
nle4lyfe 1 year ago
@nle4lyfe lol say what?
Einstein wrote a letter to Roosevelt warning him of germanys aim to build an atom bomb. Einstein was an American citizen in 1940, so yes i am sure he worked on nuclear bombs for the Nazis.
also are you trying to tell me that Russia, a country in ww2 that was trying to spread communism through the world, and was involved in many conflicts would "dispose" of the most powerful weapon ever? didnt think so.

@fucksplash
wrong again... the Germans developed the first tank to be used, altho it had no main gun... it was greatly used for transporting troops into action
the NUCLEAR bomb (spelled it right for u) was originally designed for years before the US hired Einstein (whom is originally from Germany, and actually had worked on several projects for the Nazi's)
and the Thompson was designed to fight back against Nazi Mp44 smg's

@nle4lyfe Thompson was developed first in the 1920s as a "sub machine gun. the mp44/stg44 was first developed in the 1940s as an assault rifle (the first assaultrifle) officialy addopted by the german army in 1944 (mp44). the german tank that you spoke of was not a tank but an armoured viechle or APC. A tank has commbat as first and only task. (British WW1 tank) google it... however the nuke you may be right about...

@fucksplash stg 44 was first deployed by germany in 1942 either as MKB 42 H or W machinen karabine 42 (automatic carabine) H for the weapons produced by Heanel and W for the walter version, and was adopted next year (after field testing)under the disguise designation of MP43 (note in 1943 there where 2 different MP 43 but the later version was the production of the MP43/1 wich was found to be better then MP43)
Gjldo 1 year ago
@nle4lyfe No, now youre whong again. You se, the Thompson or Tommygun was first introduced in 1917, the mp40 is from 1940 but earlyer models (mp38,mp39) was in production from 1938. So, there you go.
fucksplash 1 year ago
@nle4lyfe The first Tank with treads actually produced were British experimental tanks that became the Mk.1. You could be referring to two designs by the Austrian engineering officer Günther Burstyn in 1911, but these were simply drawings. And the French had a tank design in 1903 that was abandoned. Also, he first documented telescopic rifle sight was invented between 1835 and 1840 by Morgan James of Utica, NY.

@nle4lyfe-I think you're going to be hard pressed to find a single document saying that the germans had the first atom bomb. The US had it first, the concept was stolen by germany, it had to have been, because if they did germany would have gotten the A-bom first.

@trulynot i remember reading somewhere that Hitler turned down a new type of bomb with near unlimited destructive power, based on Physics hypothesis, in 1937, the project was restarted later during the War, but too late to yield results. The film (movie) The Heroes of Telemark (in Norway), tells a very good story.

M16 owes a lot in its design to the FG42 but I doubt the Americans would like to admit that. lol
creamycurdy 2 years ago
Maybe the FG42, but I would say the
STG44 had more influence on the M16. The M16 borrowed the idea of a dust cover from the STG44. The thumb safety on the M16 was also probably borrowed from the STG44. The M16 and STG44 field very similarily. The STG44 had an upper and lower reciever just like the M16 did. The M16's upper and lower could be seperated though.

Oh yeah. I'd like to see you trying to fire a full-powered rifle roud weapon on full automatic WITHOUT rocking around - 'cause you can't help it!
Daniel4646 2 years ago
It wasnt the rocking I refered too. You see he's moving BEFORE he squeezes the trigger. That's being afraid of the gun...
ml191172 2 years ago
I don't see any flinching before he pulls the trigger. If he does make a nervous move, I think it's more to brace himself. Even with a spring-loaded stock and the muzzle-break, firing this gun on full auto must be a killer!
Daniel4646 2 years ago
First of all, contrary to what a lot of plp think; It's NOT a recoil buffer in the FG42, its a big springcoil in front of the butt, but its part of the reloading mechanism, NOT a recoildamper. Flinching, (wich he does ), is not uncommon when shooting, but you have to learn not to, because you will shoot poorly. In the army we ad the AG3, aka H&K G36, wich has the same power and weight. The same problem with flinching occure on this gun for firsttimers on that gun.
ml191172 2 years ago
From what I read up, the spring coil did help in reducing the recoil - or rather, the felt effect on the rifleman, since it and the gun's straight linear design would reduce the gun's impact on the firing shoulder.
Second, the AG-3 you described does not go under H&K G36, but H&K G3 - which is in both operation and caliber a completely different weapon. So better check your information again before you write it down for the public to read.
Third: Where exactly does he flinch before firing?
Daniel4646 2 years ago
For f... sake I was refering to POWER, not the operation. If you didn't know, the 7,92 mauser round used in the FG42 is quite similar in POWER to 7,62 Nato, or .308, used in the G3 (sorry for the 6, my bad ).
If you read the exellent book "German automatic weapons of WWII", by R. Bruce, page 82, and I quote: " Incidentally, it is not true - as so often claimed - that the buttstock is springloaded to absorb recoil forces".
Check your information your self.
ml191172 2 years ago
Okay, one point may be an error based on faulty literature. But who's to be blamed but the author?
And as for the cartridge power thing: Yeah, I do know.
Daniel4646 2 years ago
The FG42 operation is basicly the same as the WWI lewis, or post WWII m60, namely gas operated rotating bolt. The big thing about the FG42 is that you fire from an OPEN bolt at full auto, and at a CLOSED bolt on single shot. (can tell you WHY later, If you like ). The bolt is locked to the barrel when the round is fired, therefore NO RECOIL IS ABSORBED BY THE BUTTSTOCK COIL. However, when the bolt is released, i slides back to the same coil, stops, and is returned by the recoil spring.
ml191172 2 years ago
Thanks for the information, but one note: the M60 machine gun's operation was based on the FG42's. But the gun wasn't faulty 'cause of that.

I would like to disagree with you on that. There are people out there who can actually control that weapon quite well on Full Auto. Granted it is difficult due to the high RoF, And caliber, But there are those out there who can pull it off. I know a man who can fire an M14 on full auto, And keep them all on target at 25m.
