It has an integrated suppressor and a special barrel which reduced the muzzle velocity of its ammunition to just below the speed of sound. It is almost inaudible at distances of more than 15 meters. The muzzle flash is virtually invisible. It is a weapon of choice for stealthy operations. The longer reload time reflects the lower reliability of silenced weapons.

  • Thompson Brochure 9Th Edition.Indd
    9th Edition Own A Piece Of American History Thompson Submachine Gun General John T. Thompson, a graduate of West Point, began his research in 1915 for an automatic weapon to supply the American military. World War I was dragging on and casualties were mounting. Having served in the U.S. Army’s ordnance supplies and logistics, General Thompson understood that greater fi repower was needed to end the war. Thompson was driven to create a lightweight, fully automatic fi rearm that would be effective against the contemporary machine gun. His idea was “a one-man, hand held machine gun. A trench broom!” The fi rst shipment of Thompson prototypes arrived on the dock in New York for shipment to Europe on November 11, 1918 the day that the War ended. In 1919, Thompson directed Auto-Ordnance to modify the gun for nonmilitary use. The gun, classifi ed a “submachine gun” to denote a small, hand-held, fully automatic fi rearm chambered for pistol ammunition, was offi cially named the “Thompson submachine gun” to honor the man most responsible for its creation. With military and police sales low, Auto-Ordnance sold its submachine guns through every legal outlet it could. A Thompson submachine gun could be purchased either by mail order, or from the local hardware or sporting goods store. Trusted Companion for Troops It was, also, in the mid ‘20s that the Thompson submachine gun was adopted for service by an Dillinger’s Choice offi cial military branch of the government. The U.S. Coast Guard issued Thompsons to patrol While Auto-Ordnance was selling the Thompson submachine gun in the open market in the ‘20s, boats along the eastern seaboard.

  • The DIY STEN Gun
    The DIY STEN Gun Practical Scrap Metal Small Arms Vol.3 By Professor Parabellum Plans on pages 11 to 18 Introduction The DIY STEN Gun is a simplified 1:1 copy of the British STEN MKIII submachine gun. The main differences however include the number of components having been greatly reduced and it's overall construction made even cruder. Using the simple techniques described, the need for a milling machine or lathe is eliminated making it ideal for production in the home environment with very limited tools. For obvious legal reasons, the demonstration example pictured was built as a non-firing display replica. It's dummy barrel consists of a hardened steel spike welded and pinned in place at the chamber end and a separate solid front portion protruding from the barrel shroud for display. It's bolt is also inert with no firing pin. This document is for academic study purposes only. (Disassembled: Back plug, recoil spring, bolt, magazine, sear and trigger displayed) (Non-functioning dummy barrel present on display model) Tools & construction techniques A few very basic and inexpensive power tools can be used to simulate machining actions usually reserved for a milling machine. Using a cheap angle grinder the average hobbyist has the ability to perform speedy removal of steel using a variety of cutting and grinding discs. Rather than tediously using a hacksaw to cut steel sheet, an angle grinder fitted with a 1mm slitting disc will accurately cut a straight line through steel of any thickness in mere seconds. Fitted with a 2mm disc it can be used to easily 'sculpt' thick steel into any shape in a fraction of the time it takes to manually use a hand file.

  • Understanding Distance Shooting and the Type of Firearm from the Analysis
    Understanding distance shooting and the type of !rearm from the analysis of gunshot sounds Nikolaos E. Tsiatis Police Major Forensic Science Division of Hellenic Police, Athens, Greece Abstract In order to study gunshot sounds, experimental shootings were conducted in an open shooting range to record the sound of gunshots. The results were tabulated for a total of 168 gunshots. Shots were red using pistols, revolvers, submachine guns, ries and shotguns in dierent calibres from selected distances relative to the recording devices. Both a conventional sound level meter (SLM) and a measurement microphone were used. These were placed at selected points behind the shooting position and the sound of each shot was recorded. At the same time, the signal received by the microphone was transferred to a computer connected through an appropriate audio interface with a pre-amplier. The peak amplitude of the gunshot was calculated in the accepted engineering units (dB) of sound pressure level. The shortest distance for the recordings was 9.60 m and the furthest was 38.40 m. The experiment was carried out using the following calibres: 6.35 mm, 7.62 mm Tokarev, 7.65 mm, 9 mm Short, 9 mm Makarov, 9 mm Parabellum, .45 Auto, .22 LR, .32 S&W, .38 S&W, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, 7.62 mm Kalashnikov and 12 GA. A decrease of the peak amplitude, equivalent to the increasing of the distance, was observed as expected. Values appeared to follow the inverse square law. By analyzing a recorded gunshot sound it is possible to calculate the distance between that discharged rearm and the recording device.

  • German Maschinenpistole 40 (Machine Pistol 40 / MP 40)
    German Maschinenpistole 40 (Machine Pistol 40 / MP 40) The MP 40 descended from its predecessor the MP 38, which was in turn based on the MP 36, a prototype made of machined steel. The MP 36 was developed independently by Erma Werke's Berthold Geipel with funding from the German Army. It took design elements from Heinrich Vollmer's VPM 1930 and EMP. Vollmer then worked on Berthold Geipel's MP 36 and in 1938 submitted a prototype to answer a request from the Heereswaffenamt (Army Weapons Office) for a new submachine gun, which was adopted as MP 38. The MP 38 was a simplification of the MP 36, and the MP 40 was a further simplification of the MP 38, with certain cost-saving alterations, most notably in the more extensive use of stamped steel rather than machined parts. The MP 40 was often called the "Schmeisser" by the Allies, after the weapon designer Hugo Schmeisser. Schmeisser had designed the MP 18, which was the first mass-produced submachine gun. He did not, however, have anything to do with the design or development of the MP 40, although he held a patent on the magazine The MP 40 submachine guns are open-bolt, blowback-operated automatic arms. The only mode of fire was fully automatic, but the relatively low rate of fire enabled single shots with controlled trigger pulls. The bolt features a telescoping return spring guide which serves as a pneumatic recoil buffer. The cocking handle was permanently attached to the bolt on early MP 38s, but on late production MP 38s and MP 40s, the bolt handle was made as a separate part.

  • World War One Trench Warfare and the Development of Weapons Technology by Edwin Den Harder
    World War One Trench Warfare and the Development of Weapons Technology By Edwin den Harder A common perception of the First World War revolves around trench warfare and the massive casualty rates sustained by all the combatant powers in their attempt to overcome the stalemate on the Western Front. One of the themes of the World War I sub-course in HI 302: History of the Military Art is this very issue. Cadets are first introduced to the dilemma during the lesson that discusses the First Battle of the Marne and the ensuing stalemate as a result of the “Race to the Sea.” The challenge of trench warfare remains a theme throughout the sub-course and culminates with discussions concerning the German Spring Offensives of 1918. Through the use of arms and equipment, cadets are able to better understand the tactical and operational problems of trench warfare and how each of the combatants tried to overcome these problems throughout the war. The material culture package for Lesson 4 (Tannenberg and the Marne; Stalemate and Response) consists of the standard-issue bolt action rifles for the British (Lee-Enfield), French (Lebel), and German (Mauser with bayonet) armies in 1914 and a German MG 08 machine gun. These weapons comprised the majority of the arms a standard infantry battalion in 1914, with only two machine guns allocated to each battalion (same for all armies). The bolt-action rifles are all very similar to each other, with no combatant having a decisive advantage in this area of weapons technology, although the British Lee-Enfield has the largest magazine capacity and its bolt style allows for more rapid manipulation and fire than the other two rifles.
