This expert-level review of 'The Schmeisser Myth' by Martin Helebrant, presented by Ian McCollum of Forgotten Weapons, delves into the complex history of German submachine guns. The book meticulously debunks the myth that Hugo Schmeisser designed the MP40, attributing its development to ERMA technicians and German trials officers, while clarifying Schmeisser's actual design of the MP41. It covers early WWI submachine guns, the impact of the Treaty of Versailles on German arms development, and provides extensive technical details on MP38/MP40 variants, magazines, and accessories, making it an invaluable resource for firearms collectors and historians.
