I find it interesting that ammunition [7.92 Kurz] for the STG44 was still being manufactured in 1961 (if I'm reading the case correctly)...
7.92 Kurz next to 7.92 x 57...
The Kurz round is steel cased...
I haven't come across any reference to these 'assault rifles' being used by anyone following WW II...Has anyone else???
