L41: Arado's WW2 Experimental MP40 Silencer
This video dives into the Arado L41, a World War II experimental silencer designed for the MP40 submachine gun. It details the L41's design, featuring heavy rubber baffles and an expansion chamber, and its threaded attachment to the MP40 muzzle. The description highlights the challenges faced due to the MP40's muzzle threads, which necessitated a larger suppressor exit diameter to avoid bullet strikes. Ultimately, no MP40 silencer designs were officially adopted by the German military.
