Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. 1st Edition. 402 pages. Hardcover with a dust jacket. Large volume. Of the plethora of submachine guns developed in Germany before 1945, most if not all of which are covered herein, the most popular by far have been the M.P. 38 and MP d40 series, collectively known to all and sundry as "Schmeissers." The book begins with a brief history of the technological and strategical developments which led to the first "machine guns", and the adoption during WWI of Infiltration tactics as a means of surmounting the stagnation of trench warfare. The elite storm troopers who spearheaded these audacious forays into No Man's Land were soon clamoring for portable rapid-fire weaponry capable of effective and decisive close-range striking power and a new class of military small arm which had not previously existed was the result, beginning with the Italian Villar-Perosa. Several early German developments culminated in the adoption of the Bergmann M.P. 18,I in 1918. The new term "submachine gun", coined in America, soon came to denote any light, portable pistol-caliber automatic weapon of the type called a Maschinnenpistole in Germany. The vindictive Treaty of Versailles, which has been called the first step toward WWII, imposed severe restrictions on the Interwar German military. In spite of this, numerous new submachine guns were designed and produced in Germany and as the book shows, many of these were used alongside M.P.38s and MP40s right through WWII. The M.P.38 was adopted in 1938 and was superseded by a somewhat simpler version called the MP40 in 1940. The MP40 was manufactured in five variations by three firms - ERMA, Haenel, and Steyr - until 1944, when it was phased out in favor of the Italian Beretta SMG and the MP44. Much valuable material is also included from advanced European collections on original accessories and ancillaries, and the book concludes with an exhaustive Index. Language: eng Language: eng.

The Schmeisser Myth: German Submachine Guns Through Two World Wars
Vendeur : G.S.B. Publishing, Hudson, WI, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. Of the plethora of submachine guns developed in Germany before 1945, most if not all of which are covered in this book, the most popular by far have been the M.P. 38 and MP 40 series, collectively but erroneously known to all and sundry as Schmeissers. The origins of the Schmeisser myth can be traced back to the summer of 1940, when an official British Military Intelligence report described the first captured M.P. 38 as a Parachute troops machine pistol of the Schmeisser type, while later that year plans were afoot to produce the 9mm Schmeisser Carbine M.P. 38 Parachute Model at BSA Guns Ltd. in Birmingham. The book begins with a brief history of modern warfare and the technological and strategical developments which led to the first machine guns, and the adoption during WWI of Infiltration tactics as a means of surmounting the stagnation of trench warfare. The élite German and Austrian Sturmtruppen or storm troopers were soon clamouring for portable rapid-fire weaponry capable of effective close-range striking power, and a new class of military small arm was the result, beginning with the Italian Villar Perosa. Several early German developments culminated in the adoption of the Bergmann M.P. 18,I in 1918. The new term submachine gun, coined in America, soon came to denote any light, portable pistol-calibre automatic weapon of the type called a Maschinenpistole in Germany. The M.P. 38 was adopted in 1938 and was superseded by a somewhat simpler version called the MP 40 in 1940. The MP 40 was produced in five manufacturing variations by three firms - ERMA, Haenel, and Steyr - until 1944. Of special interest to advanced collectors will be the four detailed, illustrated accounts of M.P. 38 and MP 40 magazines and loaders, magazine pouches, manuals, and the rare transport and storage chest. This in-depth technical, tactical and historical treatise on these important and iconic weapons and their makers concludes with a bibliography and an extensive Index. 8 ½ X 11, photos, illus, 432pp. N° de réf. du vendeur 4583
