The MP40 German Sub-Machine Gun was the MOST famous German Infantry weapon of World War Two. The MP40 German Sub-Machine Gun was carried by Infantry Squad Leaders and specified soldiers, within an normal Infantry Squad. The Squad Leader was normally a German Sergeant. The Squad normally contained 8 to 15 soldiers. The other soldiers in the squad were armed with bolt action rifles, most of the war, some of the squad members assisted to operate crew served weapons such as heavier machine guns, mortar teams, or anti-tank weapons. The MP40 is an up-date of the MP38, which suffered from a tricky safety system, which often failed. The safety system was fixed and mass production simplified, with the updated version of the German Sub-machine gun called the MP40. The basic ammunition load was seven magazines, {32 rounds per Magazine}. One Magazine was kept in the weapon, and six Magazines were carried in two pouches, with each pouch holding three magazines, for a total of 224 rounds, for a basic load, for each MP40 Schmeisser operator until re-supply . Length 83 cm Weight 4 kg (empty) 4.7 kg (loaded) Caliber 9 mm Magazine 32 round clip Muzzle Velocity 365 meters per second Rate of Fire 500 rounds per minute
