This review covers Volume I of the Vickers Guide WWII Germany, focusing on handguns, submachine guns, and bolt-action rifles. The book is praised for its magnificent, highly detailed photography and serves as a high-quality coffee table book rather than a strict reference. It highlights the decline in quality of firearms like the Mauser 98k throughout the war and the extensive use of foreign, captured, and occupation-produced materiel by Germany, including popular items like the PPSh-41 and Beretta 38 series.
This Q&A with Larry Vickers covers his extensive experience with both historical German WWII firearms and modern small arms. Vickers shares insights on the innovation of WWII German weapons like the StG 44 and MG42, compares direct impingement vs. piston AR platforms, and discusses his preferences for calibers like 7.62x39mm and 10mm. He also touches on his personal collection goals and post-military career in firearms training and design.
