Description

The StG 44 (Sturmgewehr 44, literally “storm or assault”) rifle (model of 1944″) was an assault rifle developed in Nazi Germany during World War II that was the first of its kind to see major deployment and is considered by many historians to be the first modern assault rifle. It is also known under the designations MP 43 and MP 44 (Maschinenpistole 43, Maschinenpistole 44 respectively), which denote earlier development versions of the same weapon with some differences like a different butt end, muzzle nut, shape of the front sight base or with an un-stepped barrel, all only visible with close inspection.

The rifle also has an ejecting magazine and a functional trigger and bolt mechanism. All this adds up, ensuring that when you hold this replica, you’ll feel like you are holding the real thing. It measures approximately 36.5 inches long and features a cut-out in the stock so that a shoulder sling can be attached later.
