You can also see it attached to the so-called invention of the Russians. The AK47 kalisthikov, is actually in the unit that takes over the German research unit that was making this very advanced first assault. Weapon in history. So like many things in Russia, they stole this from the Germans and then claim it's their invention. Because they put a lesser, inferior wooden stock on it, just out of their own poverty, because they couldn't machine. The metal, the way the Germans could, even though they took the machinery from the Germans that made the product in Russia, the drunken men there just couldn't do what the Germans could do in Germany. We're all lucky that the whole world ganged up at once on germany, or else we'd all be speaking.It now

I'm pretty sure that bullet isn't traveling straight for long with barrel like that. Probably a guessing game where it's gonna go

That looks like a Sturmgewehr STG42 that shot a 7.92x33mm Kurz. The first WW2 assault weapon.

Phony depicting an STG 44 assault rifle developed during the end of WW2. being fired by a WW1 soldier from a WW1 trench..Actually some curved barrel rifles were developed during WW2, but weren't widely adopted because the curved barrel had too many problems and a short life

the periscope rifles of WW1 were more accurate although they were specialized weapons instead of just modified

Was a complete failure. 2-3 shots max. and you can throw that barrel away.

STG 44 Assult rifle... You could just interchange the barrel.. But highly ineffective.. But if you look closely, you can see the resemblance of the Russian AK47.. When Berlin collapsed at the end of WWII Everything was ransacked and stolen by Russia.. The US mainly got scientists.. We just hesitated and let them go into Berlin first..

They were used in the German Ferdinand Self propelled anti tank guns (JPElephant) as well, against troops because the tank had no anti personell defenses

it's called the Krummlauf and it has a life span of about 300 rounds per barrel, the barrels could fairly quickly be replaced. The receiver itself was rarely damaged. Many YouTubers have tested this idea as well with relative success, although range and accuracy are a bit shaky

Not very accurate and you could only shoot 300 rounds through a 30* bend and 160 through a 45* bend without barrel failure. It wore the barrel out from the inside.

Those curved barrel guns used the first silicone bullets. You could hit your target but after they looked at the red mark it left on them they laughed and opened fired on your local!

My dad came home from Europe in 1945, in the VFW meetings he talked about the gun that shot around corners... They changed the subject all the time and thought that he was suffering severe SHELL SHOCK... man ... that sure pissed me off....
