I know, I couldn't stop myself from watching it over and over... But it's too upsetting....

Oh well, nice to see an MP-44 in action

For now I will have to get by with my K98. :

I would like to fire an MP-40 or an MG42!

i think you're all undervaluing .45ACP vs girly german 9mm. if you blast someone with .45ACP they're DOWN.

personally i wouldn't want to get hit by either a .45acp or 9mm!

also hits count misses don't and its a lot easier to make quick hits with a mp40 than a thompson in my opinion.

either way they both pale compared to a mp-44 firing 7.92x33 kurz!

The old .45 / 9mm debate should be properly relegated to pistols now days - when you can carry a fully auto rifle that weighs the same as a smg it becomes a moot point. An AK 7.62 trumps any pistol bullet I can think of!

As to the pistol controversy - I like 'em both but from experience prefer mag capacity over size - to me a pistol is to make 'em duck so I can run away
