Think of this like a bit of a 1 up game. The objective is to name 1(ONE) gun of a nationality and time period in a reply to a previous post. The first person who repeats an already stated gun loses.

For this, let's just use guns from World War 2, they can be mainstream or prototypes that hardly saw use

Ill go first:

M1 Garands for life

Lee-Enfield, the gun of the Empire, no other bolt-action rifle had such a large magazine.
Firing the reliable .303, it has a very good reason why its series served for longer than any other firearm, except the Mosin-Nagant.

3080442 Colt M1911, American. Widely regarded as one of the best pistols ever made, the Colt M1911 is a semi-automatic handgun that fires a .45 ACP round. Extremely hard to jam and capable of firing a round even in the worst of conditions, it's still in service with the Marine Corps.

3080810 Actually, the M1911 is retired in the Marines, they're currently using the Beretta M9. They are, however, developing a new model for use.

The German MP 40, workhorse of the Nazi war machine.

3083206
Karabiner 98 Kurz

Sturmgewehr 44

3084379

The Type 94 pistol..... Otherwise known as the most god awful pistol of the war

3080364>>3080442 3080810 3083206 3084379

French MAS-36, a bolt-action rifle produced in too few numbers before the war to see extensive use during the war. Chambered in 7.5x54mm French.

3083245 Inferior in every way, except perhaps the bolt reliabiltity and less magazine troubles. It's "Kurz" by the way.

You can built it from scrap metal and the most cost effective firearm ever that has been used as a standard issue submachine gun.

3090253
The MAS 38 or as I call it "That one SMG that looks bent"

Many people seem to forget about this ancient SMG, that was designed in the middle of World War 1 and was issued in the last year. Even though it was an old design and new SMGs were showing up, it never stopped being a reliable weapon that was used from 1918 to 1945.

Tokarev TT-33

3097747

Now this is a bit different, but thought it'd more worth mentioning.

The Finnish Suomi KP/-31

3099686

Looks like a rip-off of the PPsh

3099686
How about a last ditch Arisaka

3100103

Funny that you should mention that, as the PPSh is actually a rip-off of the KP/-31. The soviets stole the design off the Finnish after fighting them in the Winter War.

3100946

That's Soviet Engineering for you

Type 99 SMG, made in few quantities and served as an officer and NCO weapon.
Some believe it was a copy of the Sten, but it was actually a copy of the MP18, or more specifically license-produced SIG Bergmann 1920s, which they purchased in the 20s.

Unlike many cowadoody fans out there, a weapon that is fed sideways SHOULDN'T BE HELD BY THE MAGAZINE. The magazine goes upwards when you hold it, since the weight of the gun itself pushes it down and you aren't holding it when it's heaviest. Never hold a magazine, only rest it in your hands if you do have to use them.

I always hated that gun in World at War

And lets not forget the MG34

The Boys Anti-Tank Rifle

Welrod, for those who have seen a few History books, played Sniper Elite V2 or who love to read about secret services.

Around 2800 made, most people who could even have read a good amount of WW2 history might not know this pistol.
The whole barrel is a silencer, and it reduces the 9mm bullet to a subsonic speed (Standard 9mm breaks the sound barrier). It was one of the quietest weapons ever, issued to the SOE (Special Operations Executive), OSS (Office of Strategic Services) and Irregular Forces/Resitance/Partisans.

3131718
I remember that from Rising Sun

3117702
Well, if you're going to mention the MG34...ya gotta mention the MG42.

3139216
And if you're going to mention that piece of Kraut Engineering.... I gotta mention the good ol M1919A4

3139332 To jump into the game a little late and continue the trend of discussing machine guns, the Maxim gun was one of the earliest machine guns made for mass production. Variations of the Maxim gun were used into WWII by the Americans, British and Soviets. It was even used in Korea by the Americans.

The SG-43 Goryunov

Japanese Type 96 Light Machine Gun

3148107
The good ol' Mosin Nagant rifle

3169679 The Liberator, a .45 caliber weapon designed for extremely close range combat. This weapon was provided en masse by the U.S. to the French resistance. The idea was to stealthily kill a German officer and take his weapon.

3172813
How bout the Degtyaryov machine gun

3186931

The M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle (commonly known as the BAR) was a powerful light machine gun. Designed in 1918 for WWI but never shipped overseas (due to fears that the weapon would be captured and copied), the weapon was first used in WWII. The weapon later distinguished itself in Korea and Vietnam. The last versions of this amazing weapon were retired in 1990.

3188165
How about the Samozaryadnaya Vintovka Tokareva, Obrazets 1940 goda (other wise known as the SVT 40)

3198615

Model 1897 trench shotgun. This weapon was used as a close quarters weapon mostly during WWI but also in limited numbers in WWII. The weapon shot 12 gauge slugs. It was so good that the Germans protested its use.

3198961

'Murica

The M1895 Nagant Revolver

3198967

To continue the game I present the Thompson submachine gun. Affectionately known as the tommy gun, the Thompson submachine gun could fire .45 bullets at a rate of 600- 1500 rpm. The weapon is commonly known for being the weapon of choice for mobsters in 1930's Chicago. It also served with distinction in WWII and the Korean war. The weapon was used up to the 1970's by the IRA.

What is Capitan Pikard doing with a tommy gun

And here is the Browning Hi-Power

3199346

In Star Trek: First Contact, John Luc Pacard disables the holodeck's security protocalls and guns down the borg with a tommy gun from a holonovel. Pretty awesome stuff if I do say so myself.

The Walther PP was developed in Germany in 1929 for use in the German police and armed forces. The weapon is still used to this day by various police forces. Perhaps this weapon is best known for being the weapon that Hitler shot himself with in 1945.

3199407
The SG-43 Goryunov machine gun (ussian Equivilent to the .30 cal

3199415

The ZB vz. 26, the Czechoslovakian inspiration for the Bren Gun and Type 96 machine gun.

3201214

And cant forget the uniquely British Bren Gun

3201352 The M3 SMG or grease gun. Designed in 1942, the weapon cambered a .45 caliber round. The weapon saw extensive use during WWII and Korea. By the Vietnam war it was being phased out of combat. Some of the guns were later shipped to developing nations like Macedonia, Morocco and the Philippines.

A modernized version of the gun used by the Phillipines Special Forces

3202262

The Lebel Model 1886

This relic of WW1 was still being used by the French at the start of the war

The FG 42 (short for Fallschirmjägergewehr 42). The FG 42 was a German light machine gun used by paratroopers. First shown in the Battle of Crete, the weapon served as an inspiration for the American M60 light machine gun.

Ahh the Owen Gun, does anyone actually know about it?
It's Australian and it does have a very curious look, doesn't it?
