Right.I have strayed a tad too much to other guns ,either by thought or deed,as the Scripture tells.I must make amends ,so there I go (yes,again) to my favorite subject of airsoft pastime:MP40 and its sub-models.
A few pics ,for starters:
1943 Russland - MP40 & regulation ammo pouches (double 3rds).
MP40,issue 1942 & Fallschirmjager -type of ammo pouch.
Reich's finest paratroopers - Fallschirmjaeger,resting.Italy 1943.
This is the official document by which the OHKW (Oberheer Komando der Wehrmacht) started to issue the bolt strap.It was a leather piece of equipment which was used to keep the bolt secure,and thus the ejection chamber closed down.Dirt was the utmost enemy to the MP40.
MP 38 Erma,issue of 1938.Here with the non-ribbed magazine.
Mag pouches,both the Wehrmacht and Fallschirmjaeger types.
Romanian infantry,somewhere near Stalingrad,1942.Two of them are equipped with the MP40,as Germany was our ally back then (although not issued on a large scale).The third from left is huggin a PPSH submachine ,the famous Pistolet Pulemyot Shpagina,a Russian capture of war very probable (these were never issued to the Romanian troops,not until well after 1948).The last two from left are bragging the (in) famous Romanian submachine gun ORITSA,which does look like the Beretta submachine.
