I don't think the Germans ever had much of a chance against Russia, and the Greece detour actually went better than expected. Hitler aquired some...
It would have taken a lot of luck and USSR stupidity for the Germans to have beaten the Russians, I think it is just that simple. As you fellas...
This is a good point. I think it would be very unlikely that Stalin would have let the German army encirlce him and then capture him. As you say,...
I guess some people have come to the conclusion that I have: Sure it would be nice to hunt/etc. with these vintage weapons, but they don't stand...
Reguardless of how the general population felt towards Stalin at the time, I can't imagine having their former leader disgraced in Hitlers zoo...
You both make good points, but it seems like an Axis controlled Gibraltar could have solved a lot of problems.
If Germany did end the war in 1940, I don't think the peace would have lasted very long at all. Germany or the USSR would have broken their treaty...
I tryed to spark this thread into something worth-while, but I see now that it is beyond repair....
Something tells me this thread doesn't have much of a future. Sorry G-Banger,(nice screen name) I like this part of the European theater, but it...
So it was impossible for Germany to defeat both the USA and USSR, but could Germany have beaten just the USSR and stayed away from the US? Or was...
Having control over nearly all of the Mediterranean, I think it only would have made sense for the Axis to have destroyed this British outpost and...
I bought a Romainian AK a couple years back, and I have been very pleased. The accuracy is what you would expect from and AK, but it has been very...
Of course, they would be completely screwed. Without the industrialization of Russia, Barbarrosa would have succeeded just as Hitler had planned,...
Not just could they have won the war, but what would have had to happen in order for them to win, what could they have done differently, etc. Was...
You have a point, but I think that even as a country may try to keep its atomic program on the DL, parts of it leak out. In some instances...
At 800m, it would be difficult to even see a person, under ideal conditions. Through the woods, forget it, you need a scope to shoot past 500m....
The problem would have been the ability to produce multiple bombs in a short amount of time. Realistically, even if a country like Britian was...
Lets say on my list out of ten, a Thompson is an 8, the PPSh-41 is an 7, and the MP-40 is a 6. I would class the Sten as about a 2, and the M-3...
Well, in general, what I have read tells me that accuracy is a toss up between the two, maybe giving a slight edge to the Kar. I think the kar was...
I prefer a good, solid, submachinegun that is well made. I don't care for the M-3 Grease gun, the Owens, the Sten. I don't need a cheap piece of...
