The MP 40 operates from an open bolt and is blowback operated. Although fully automatic only, it can be fired accurately in short bursts with its low rate of fire. Platoon and squad leaders often carried the MP 40, as well as paratroopers, pioneers, and designated soldiers in the infantry squads. |

SPE_M1A1_Thompson | M1A1 Thompson | Submachine Gun Caliber: .45 ACP The Thompson was the standard issue Sub-machine gun for the US Army at the time of entering World War II. It was replaced by the much simpler and easier-to-manufacture M3 Grease gun close to the end of World War II. Commonwealth forces also saw widespread use of the Thompson sub-machine during the early parts of WW2. The design dates back to the end of WW1, the Thompson first saw notoriety in the hands of law enforcement and gangsters. The Thompson is chambered in .45 ACP and fed from 20 or 30-round magazines.

SPE_G43 | Gewehr 43 | Semi-Automatic Rifle Caliber: 7.92x57 mm Mauser The Gewehr 43, or Karabiner 43, was a successor to the Gewehr 41. Its intended role was to increase the firepower of the individual riflemen who were using bolt-action Kar 98k rifles at the time. The Gewehr 43 improved on the G41 by adding a detachable 10-round box magazine, which could still be fed from Kar 98k stripper clips when required. Captured SVT-38s and SVT-40s were reverse-engineered to develop the gas operating system used for the Gewehr 43, replacing the bang system used on the early G41. |

Intended to replace the Kar 98k, MP 40s, and G43s in service, although it never fully did. The Sturmgewehr 44 utilized a new cartridge, the 7.92 x 33 mm Kurz, which was in itself a shortened rifle round. The Sturmgewehr 44 is select fire with Semi and fully automatic.

SPE_MG42 | MG 42 | Light Machine Gun Caliber: 7.92x57 mm Mauser The MG 42 was the result of an effort to produce an easier-to-manufacture and lighter machine gun for the German military. The allies nicknamed the MG 42 the buzzsaw due to the sound it made while firing at a high rate of fire. The MG 42 shares many characteristics with its predecessor, the MG 34, but is lighter and has a higher rate of fire. The MG 42 can only utilize the 50-round drum magazines in the light role. The MG 42 couldn't replace the MG 34 as a machine gun for tanks due to its barrel change procedure. |

|
SPE_MG34 | MG 34 | Light Machine Gun Caliber: 7.92x57 mm Mauser The MG 34 introduced a new concept, the universal machine gun. The MG 34 could be used as a light machine gun when fired from the bipod, a medium machine gun when mounted on a tripod for sustained fire, or mounted on vehicles on pintle mounts or in tanks as the coaxial machine gun. The MG 34 fires 7.92 x 57 mm Mauser rounds in non-disintegrating metal-linked belts. When used in the light role, it used a 50-round Gurttrommel, also known as a 'Belt Drum. |

SPE_M1919A4 | M1919A4 | Machine Gun Caliber: .30-06 The M1919 was the standard medium machine gun used by the US Army during World War II. It saw use as a medium machine gun in the A4 configuration and was later upgraded to operate as a light machine gun in the A6 configuration. It was also mounted on vehicles as hull machine guns, coaxial machine guns, and pintle mounts. The M1919 is chambered in 03-06 and fed from cloth belts. The A4 can be fired from a handheld position but isn't very effective unless mounted on a tripod. The A6 version can be fired from the shoulder or deployed on the bipod but can't be mounted on the tripod. |

SPE_M1918A2_BAR | M1918A2 BAR | Automatic Rifle Caliber: .30-06 Although the weapon did see some action in World War I, the BAR didn't become standard issue in the US Army until 1938, when it was issued to squads as a portable light machine gun. The BAR is chambered in 30-06 and fed from 20 round box magazines. Bipod legs were provided, although troops found them somewhat cumbersome and unwieldy and occasionally removed them in the field. The BAR fulfilled US Army requirements but wasn't able to provide the sustained firepower of other light machine guns field by other nations at the time. The US doctrine allowed for this shortcoming with the increased firepower of the individual rifleman fielding semi-automatic rifles. The BAR is large and difficult to shoulder but more manageable compared to other LMGs. |

SPE_FM_24_M29 | FM Mle. 1924 M29 | Automatic Rifle Caliber: 7.5x54 mm After the First World War, the French army sought a replacement for the rapidly developed and produced Chauchat. With lessons learned from the Chauchat's development and the war, Lieutenant Colonel Reibel, with the backing of the Manufacture d'Armes de Châtellerault, proposed a weapon partially derived from the BAR. This weapon featured a new 7.5 mm cartridge, integrated bipod, and pistol grip and was fed from a top-mounted 25-round detachable box magazine. It featured two separate triggers, the front for semi-automatic fire and the rear for automatic fire. The new machine gun was accepted and adopted in 1924 as the Fusil-Mitrailleur Mle 1924, entering production in 1925. In 1929, problems with the new ammunition being too similar in dimension to the 7.92x57 Mauser led to the cartridge being modified to 7.5x54 mm, and re-barreled guns were renamed Fusil-Mitrailleur Mle 1924 M29, which continued to see service well into the 1960s. |
