Re: german machine pistal of ww2
Since we are seeking accuracy, the Erma mp40 is not the Schmeisser. The mp40 was misnamed during the war by US forces and the incorrect name stuck.

Re: german machine pistal of ww2
the magazine did hold 32 rounds - however it would have a tendancy to jam if they were filled to capacity. Usually they only loaded about 30
