Sturmgewehr 44

Summary

• The Maschinenpistole 43, Maschinenpistole 44, Sturmgewehr 44 (MP43, MP44, StG44 respectively) were names for a light automatic rifle developed for Nazi Germany during World War II as part of the Maschinenkarabiner (machine carbine) program, and developed from the Mkb 42(H). The many names of the Mkb 42(H)'s successor result from the complicated events in the bureaucracy of the Third Reich.
