Did they have AK-47s during the Holocaust?
WW2 ended in 1945. The AK47 was introduced in 1947, hence it's name. No. The '47' in the name indicates that the weapon was introduced in 1947. It was developed by Mikhail Kalashnikov of the Soviet Union. The assault weapon used during the Holocaust was the MP-40 machine pistol, or 'Schmeisser' as called by most Americans. The Germans issued about one million of these weapons, initially to paratroopers and squad leaders, but later to whole platoons. Most German soldiers were issued plain and dull Mauser Karabiner 98k kurz rifles. 14 million of these weapons were put into service. They were simple, straight, bolt-action rifles. These aren't usually depicted in films because they look too ordinary. The Sturmgewehr (StG 44) was introduced before the end of the war and had a passing resemblance to the Kalashnikov weapon. 425,000 of these were built and issued before the end of the war.
