PPSh-41

The PPSh-41, “Pistolet Pulemyot Shpagina model of 1941”, (PPSh-41) was a mass produced submachine gun used by the Red Army during World War 2. Designed to be easier to manufacture and more reliable than the PPD-38/40 that it replaced, it was a great success in spite of its weight. This gun was used with a 71 round drum magazine.
