Mauser Volkspistole
This video delves into the Mauser Volkspistole, an experimental German WWII handgun designed as a cost-effective home guard weapon. The description highlights its development by Mauser, as well as by Walther and Gustloffwerke. It details the initial gas-delayed blowback design and its later rework to a direct blowback action. The program ultimately didn't proceed past the prototype stage due to the war's end. The video notes the theoretical lineage of the Volkspistole's design to later handguns like the H&K P7 and Steyr GB.
