It was an attachment for the STG called the Krummlauf, which in theory would allow them to shoot around corners or from holes in tanks...it wasn't that good despite being a cool idea.
it was originally called the mp 44 to hide its true design from hitler, who at the time only wanted smg's, or as they are called in germany, machinenpistolen. it was renamed the sturmghewere , or "assault rifle" after hitler heard such praise for it by troops to make it sound intimidating, and to attest to it's effectiveness in combat.
The Stg44 and AK-47 are quite different. Well, at least the people who say that the AK-47 is more or less a copy of the Stg 44 are wrong. You see this if you compare the way the two rifles work internaly. The Stg 44 has a tilting bolt locking mechanism. The AK has rotating bolt locking. The way the gas is tapped off the barres is quite like tho. The AK-47 has more in common with the M1 Garand actually, as both have long-stroke gas piston with rotating bolt locking.
The Ak-47 was inspired by the StG. 44,and initially formed as ,,AS-44´´,but the red army refused the rifle,despite the fact,it was more reliable..The Ak-47 does look like the StG.44,because the main parts are taken over in their principle,but enhanced by Mikhail Kalashnikov..For long Distances,the StG. is way more reliable,than the Ak,because of a longer Barrel and a lower rate of fire,making it more controlable and also more precisive at higher distances.
Your going way too fast to actually comprehend what’s going on, no explanations, and that was not a full disassembly, that was only a few snippets of the disassembly...
gabrielchcosta Basically designed for tank crews... in case of enemy infantry getting too close to a tank... tank crew should be able to shoot them without expose themselves outside the tank
Uh... No. The US had developed the Atomic Bomb long before They had captured Germany, and had been working on it since before D-Day. The Germans were attempting to develop weapons using radioactive materials, but hadn't gotten any further than developing a small, basic reactor by he end of the war.
Maybe you' re right(Lord Openhaimer). The matter is the biggest inventions as U2,jets,missiles,the superheavy cannons etc. started from there.That' s why the "allies" found a brilliant "think tank" among them VON BRAWN who "become" a refugee to USA ...
MarathonianWarrior Other than your odd use of "quotations" You're more or less correct. Neither the US nor the USSR would likely have developed rocket technology to the level they did. However, they certainly would have continued development of jet and bomber technology, so the outcome would still have been much the same. And although German scientists contributed much to jet technology, the US was already in the middle of developing it's own jet's as of D-Day, and it was actually a Russian design in use during the war, that would become the basis for most jet designs that followed (Being a turbine compressor)
***** Yes. But Germany was no where near it. The entire idea of a "nuclear weapon" came from Einstein's E=MC^2, and to that extent, the Germans had developed a nuclear reactor. Not a bomb, just a reactor.
The Germans had the 'enigma", The "V2" to bomb London, the heavy cannons to bomb Paris, the engine-jet for airplane,the airship "Hidenburg" etc..The 'allies" took the principles operations, and scientists.
I’m not sure which is more cursed: the fact that the “automatic” fire is just semiauto but sped up, or the curved barrel
That moment when you realize that the AK and the Stg were completely different guns...
Pou
Russian never copy the the operation of AK47 from MP44...
What was that thing near the end of the assembly? And again at the end of operation? It's like a curved attachment for the end.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krummlauf It was a garbage device in the end.
FS2000 would be awesome. How does the ejection work?
You are right. It's a good question
👌
Why rounds in this video are color green?
What kind barrel is that ❓ 🤔
Make a pkm, rpd, and mg 42
Stg 44 ist die weltweit erste sturmgewehr
Germany is behind all inventions ! Great nation , great engineers.
👌
0:45 what does that thing do?

Unlike the Fedorov
dat krumlauf doe
The STG 44's rate of fire isn't that high.
Michael Akkerman it was more or less the worlds first assault rifle, so that's probably expected
Nathan L. What does that have to do with anything?
true it doesn't, nevermind. :|
That can't be called mp. It's not a machinenpistolen

+Andrea Agnoletto Does it operate as AK with a gas cylinder?

It's looks like AK-47. When I look at this gun, I remember to AK-47.

If you play this game... you'll note that the internals of both rifles are very different
Another thing you'll find is that the M4 has more features in common with the StG44 then the AK does
Other way around buddy.

WTF 0:46
it's a krummlauf
Sturm Gewehr It laufs krumms
Thành Nguyễn Thượng it was used to shoot in corners or close quarters and also using it as a turret in a tank.
0:45 wtf is that xD (I ALREADY KNOW WHAT IT IS)
device to shot aroud corners
yeah, right after i commented i looked for it... i cant believe it even worked!
I KNOW, LOOK AT WHEN I COMMENTED THAT
gabrielchcosta Basically designed for tank crews... in case of enemy infantry getting too close to a tank... tank crew should be able to shoot them without expose themselves outside the tank
THANKS BUT FUCK OFF! I ALREADY KNOW
The Americans "took" from Germans the nuclear bomb and Russians the "father" of AK-47.
Uh... No. The US had developed the Atomic Bomb long before They had captured Germany, and had been working on it since before D-Day. The Germans were attempting to develop weapons using radioactive materials, but hadn't gotten any further than developing a small, basic reactor by he end of the war.
