what went wrong, guys?

Overly complex trigger pack, shitty build materials, putting the recoil spring in the stock.

>>29792775
Barreta making the trigger pack out of plastic, not threading the barrel, and not importing enough to bring the price under $400.

AR would like to have a word with you. That shit was ahead of its time.

The stock in question though made the spring go at a retarded angle instead of straight back like in an AR.

>>29792764
A bunch of things happened that had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the StG 44.

>>29793423
It was also unlined so if it swelled the spring would bind or rust. ""German engineering."

>>29792764
it turns out picking a fight with the entire world when you're a small continental european power usually isn't going to end well for you.

>a small continental european power

Kek, "small continental european powers" ruled the world far and large for centuries until they cucked themselves into oblivion. Germany could have won in europe even with their atrocious logistic as far as mid 43 if Manstein was able to do as he pleased instead of doing that retarded thing that attacking Kursk was. And with the prospect of nuclear weapons being able to win the war again now that the super-over-the-top-shitty-experimental-weapons to destroy russian are useless they "may" have caught up with the delay of their nuclear program which slowed to nothing at end of 42 to the point that nuclear exchange might have become possible during WWII. That and not being almost defenseless against air raids and repelling any D-DAY-like not being a possibility but an almost certainty.

Well all of that is purely historical suppositions with all the values they have but saying germany had no way of winning as in "cold war with the US ensue" is patently false.

Germany would've won if they didn't have Japan as ally. The US wanted to remain neutral, but Japan decided it was a good idea to attack them.

Shame they couldn't mass produce the StG 45.

>tfw you will never go back in time and tell them to just use a tube to put the recoil spring in.
