The Gustloff VG1-5, often misnamed, was a semi-automatic rifle produced late in WWII for the Volkssturm militia. It features a unique gas-delayed blowback system and is constructed from stamped sheet metal. Despite its crude appearance, it was not significantly cheaper to produce than the StG44. The rifle is front-heavy with abrupt recoil and poor ergonomics, reflecting its 'last ditch' design.
