StG-44

German Sturmgewehr StG-44 7.92×33mm Assault Rifle

One of the most important firearms innovations of WWII was the StG-44 - the Storm Rifle that became the design for assault rifles for years to come. Chambered in the intermediary 7.92×33mm round it was designed to operate effectively as a carbine while also filling the support role of a light machine gun, while being light and small enough to also partially fill the role of the submachine gun in close combat environments.
