Weird Gun Wednesday: The Suomi KP/-31

Suomi KP/-31L Finnish for Firepower

September 30, 2016 by Nate Granzow 23 Comments

It's tough being the little guy on the block, especially when the guy picking on you looks like Drago from Rocky IV. Finland experienced a similar scenario in 1939 when the Soviet Union—partnering up with our favorite bad guys, the Nazis—faked an attack on one of their own villages to give them an excuse to invade their smaller neighbor to the west.

The French/Nazi oddity: MAS 38 Submachine Gun

September 25, 2016 by Nate Granzow 18 Comments

Everyone hates Nazis. They're our favorite bad guys in everything from movies to literature, and for pretty darn good reason.

Dakota Tactical D54 /MP5

May 12, 2016 by Rick Dembroski Leave a Comment

The MP5 sub machine gun is one of those guns that even non gun enthusiasts can easily recognize. It was a trailblazing cutting edge serious piece of military hardware when it was released in the mid 1960's.
