arca, the germans didn't have the manpower to pull an encirclement off. They needed more men for that. They should've just followed the original...
Well it was effective but it had to be used at very short range and was a one shot thing as during battlr, it'd be hard for you to reload the...
In Portugal it's lunch time so i guess it's a good thing I'm awake :) Cheers...
Brazilian movies rock! You should check out "Cidade de Deus" from the guy who made "the constant gardener" or "Tropa d'Elite" or "Carandiru"......
there are a lot of great movies nowadays. better than those of the 90's and 80's and so on. You just have to leave most Hollywood crap and start...

It had to do with the nature of warfare. You see, WWII warfare was more mobile than the WWI one. Plus the distribution system was refined and more...
The MP-40 was mass produced. And it wans't so hard to produce thanks to the extensive use of steel stampings. If you want over engineered SMGs,...
