− | + | The '''MKb 42 (H)''' (German: '''Maschinenkarabiner 42 (Haenel)''', '''"Machine Carbine 42 (Haenel)"''') was a prototype developed by C.G. Haenel for the contract of the creation of automatic weapons for the 7.92x33mm Kurz cartridge. Another project for this assignment was the [[Walther]]-made MKb 42 (W), but Haenel's design proved to be superior. By July 1942, 50 pre-production MKb 42 (H) rifles had already been submitted for testing, and from November 1942 to April 1943, Haenel produced and supplied about 8,000 new assault rifles which were tested in combat against the Soviet army. Based on the results of these tests, it was decided that the MKb 42 (H) deserves undoubted attention, but required revision; these revisions resulted in the MP 43 / StG 44 series of rifles. | |

+ | The '''MKb 42 (W)''' (German: '''Maschinenkarabiner 42 (Walther)''', '''"Machine Carbine 42 (Walther)"''') was a different prototype for the same contract as the MKb 42 (H), made by Walther instead of Haenel. However, preference was given to a sample from Haenel, and MKb 42 (W) developing was discontinued. In total, about 200 MKb 42 (W)s were manufactured (before Walther was removed from the competition in early 1942) and most of them remained at Walther's factory until the end of the war. | ||

+ | |||
+ | The '''StG 44''' (German: '''Sturmgewehr 44''', '''"Assault Rifle 44"'''). Others name.: The '''MP 43/1''' (German: '''Maschinenpistole 43/1''', '''"Submachine Gun 43/1"''') and the '''MP 44''' (German: '''Maschinenpistole 44''', '''"Submachine Gun 44"'''). was a German automatic rifle developed during World War II, and generally considered the first mass produced assault rifle in the world. It was developed from the earlier Haenel MKb 42 (H) "machine carbine" prototype. During development the project was hidden from Hitler, who had ordered it cancelled, by referring to it as a submachine gun (''Maschinenpistole''); during this time it was known as the MP 43 and MP 44. When the deception was discovered (supposedly due to an officer requesting "more of these new rifles") it was demonstrated to the German high command, and Hitler himself re-named it the "Sturmgewehr." This literally translates as "storm rifle;" this is storm as in "to storm a castle," hence the translation "assault rifle." The three versions were essentially minor updates for production purposes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The claim that the StG 44 was the first assault rifle is a contentious one; other weapons which could be termed early assault rifles have existed before (for example, the Russian [[Fedorov Avtomat]]). Rather, the StG 44 was the first to be mass produced, and the first to be referred to as an assault rifle. While the StG 44 was well received by troops and is often depicted as some kind of superweapon in modern videogames, it suffered from a number of issues throughout production. The materials used in the mass-production StG 44 were of poor quality due to war expediency, and British analysts (who praised the earlier MP 43) found the bolt could be totally immobilised by pinching the sides of the receiver with the fingers of one hand, while the rifle could be totally destroyed by the simple act of leaning it against a doorframe and then knocking it over. The stock was prone to breakages, and American analysts criticised the 11.5 pound weight of the loaded weapon as excessive considering the relatively small round used, comparing the StG 44 unfavourably to the [[M1 Carbine]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Because of its manufacturing costs, which prevented speedy wartime production, the StG 44 was scheduled to be replaced with the [[StG 45]], but the war ended before the new rifle could be issued for field trials. Due to administrative errors and the chaos of the war, around one hundred thousand StG 44s were never delivered to the front lines and were seized by the Soviet army from depots and warehouses after the war ended, ultimately being provided to client states: this is why StG 44s are not an uncommon sight in conflict zones even today. These surplus StGs were sufficiently common that they were often visually modified to stand in for M16s in Soviet-era Russian movies. For still mysterious reasons, these mockups were actually not created in the likeness of the serial M16, but early AR-15 prototypes. So, the Mosfilm version was actually created in the likeness of variants with black furniture, a narrow forend, and the upper charging handle of the [[AR-10]] pattern. The Lenfilm version was created according to the appearance of the slightly later version with familiar outlook but with bright furniture. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In Russia, some surplus StG 44s have now been converted into civilian semi-auto rifles named the "MP44-O" ("O" stands for "охотничий"; ''okhotnichiy'', i.e. "hunting"). Also, new semi-automatic civilian reproductions of the MKb 42 (H), MP 43/1, and StG 44 are being manufactured in Germany today by Sport Systeme Dittrich. | ||

MKb 42 (H)
The MKb 42 (H) (German: Maschinenkarabiner 42 (Haenel), "Machine Carbine 42 (Haenel)") was a prototype developed by C.G. Haenel for the contract of the creation of automatic weapons for the 7.92x33mm Kurz cartridge. Another project for this assignment was the Walther-made MKb 42 (W), but Haenel's design proved to be superior. By July 1942, 50 pre-production MKb 42 (H) rifles had already been submitted for testing, and from November 1942 to April 1943, Haenel produced and supplied about 8,000 new assault rifles which were tested in combat against the Soviet army. Based on the results of these tests, it was decided that the MKb 42 (H) deserves undoubted attention, but required revision; these revisions resulted in the MP 43 / StG 44 series of rifles.

MKb 42 (W)
The MKb 42 (W) (German: Maschinenkarabiner 42 (Walther), "Machine Carbine 42 (Walther)") was a different prototype for the same contract as the MKb 42 (H), made by Walther instead of Haenel. However, preference was given to a sample from Haenel, and MKb 42 (W) developing was discontinued. In total, about 200 MKb 42 (W)s were manufactured (before Walther was removed from the competition in early 1942) and most of them remained at Walther's factory until the end of the war.

StG 44
The StG 44 (German: Sturmgewehr 44, "Assault Rifle 44"). Others name.: The MP 43/1 (German: Maschinenpistole 43/1, "Submachine Gun 43/1") and the MP 44 (German: Maschinenpistole 44, "Submachine Gun 44"). was a German automatic rifle developed during World War II, and generally considered the first mass produced assault rifle in the world. It was developed from the earlier Haenel MKb 42 (H) "machine carbine" prototype. During development the project was hidden from Hitler, who had ordered it cancelled, by referring to it as a submachine gun (Maschinenpistole); during this time it was known as the MP 43 and MP 44. When the deception was discovered (supposedly due to an officer requesting "more of these new rifles") it was demonstrated to the German high command, and Hitler himself re-named it the "Sturmgewehr." This literally translates as "storm rifle;" this is storm as in "to storm a castle," hence the translation "assault rifle." The three versions were essentially minor updates for production purposes.
The claim that the StG 44 was the first assault rifle is a contentious one; other weapons which could be termed early assault rifles have existed before (for example, the Russian Fedorov Avtomat). Rather, the StG 44 was the first to be mass produced, and the first to be referred to as an assault rifle. While the StG 44 was well received by troops and is often depicted as some kind of superweapon in modern videogames, it suffered from a number of issues throughout production. The materials used in the mass-production StG 44 were of poor quality due to war expediency, and British analysts (who praised the earlier MP 43) found the bolt could be totally immobilised by pinching the sides of the receiver with the fingers of one hand, while the rifle could be totally destroyed by the simple act of leaning it against a doorframe and then knocking it over. The stock was prone to breakages, and American analysts criticised the 11.5 pound weight of the loaded weapon as excessive considering the relatively small round used, comparing the StG 44 unfavourably to the M1 Carbine.
Because of its manufacturing costs, which prevented speedy wartime production, the StG 44 was scheduled to be replaced with the StG 45, but the war ended before the new rifle could be issued for field trials. Due to administrative errors and the chaos of the war, around one hundred thousand StG 44s were never delivered to the front lines and were seized by the Soviet army from depots and warehouses after the war ended, ultimately being provided to client states: this is why StG 44s are not an uncommon sight in conflict zones even today. These surplus StGs were sufficiently common that they were often visually modified to stand in for M16s in Soviet-era Russian movies. For still mysterious reasons, these mockups were actually not created in the likeness of the serial M16, but early AR-15 prototypes. So, the Mosfilm version was actually created in the likeness of variants with black furniture, a narrow forend, and the upper charging handle of the AR-10 pattern. The Lenfilm version was created according to the appearance of the slightly later version with familiar outlook but with bright furniture.
In Russia, some surplus StG 44s have now been converted into civilian semi-auto rifles named the "MP44-O" ("O" stands for "охотничий"; okhotnichiy, i.e. "hunting"). Also, new semi-automatic civilian reproductions of the MKb 42 (H), MP 43/1, and StG 44 are being manufactured in Germany today by Sport Systeme Dittrich.
