The second volume of the Propaganda Photo Series, a unique series of books on World War II small arms. Each volume covers all essential information on history and development, ammunition and accessories, codes and markings and contains photos of nearly every model and accessory.The most important quality of the Propaganda Photo Series however, is a unique selection of original German World War II propaganda photos, most never published before. The combination of solid information and original photos makes the Propaganda Photo Series the most extensive and reliable source of German small arms in-use, depicting the weapons and equipment as they were actually used.This book is the first detailed publication on the famous submachinegun that (under his incorrect nickname Schmeisser) became a symbol of the Blitzkrieg as the favorite small arm of armored units and parachutists. But despite its fame, reliable information was until now very scarce. In this book, the history and development of the MP38, MP40 and MP41 are described for the first time. Moreover, several prototypes and rare variants are depicted, including the MP38(L) and the MP40/1 with dual feed system.
