Image description: PPSh-41 7.62 mm sub machine gun, 1942 (c). The PP-Sh-41 was produced in large numbers from 1942 onwards and became almost the badge of the Russian infantry from that date. It was exported to many Russian client states and guerilla forces after World War Two (1939-1945). Robust, even crude, it was an effective and reliable weapon whose main advantage was the 71 round suomi drum magazine. This example was taken by the United Nation Cease Fire monitoring force in Rhodesia in 1980.
