The WW2 Double-Magazine MP40/I
This video explores the MP40/I, an experimental modification of the MP40 submachine gun developed in late 1942. The design featured a double-magazine housing to address perceived Soviet fire superiority. However, the modification led to significant drawbacks, including increased weight, poor balance, and susceptibility to dirt and damage. Only a small number were produced, and very few survive today. The video details the conversion process, which involved modifying the magazine housing, ejector, and buttplate.
