The SVT-38 & SVT-40 were fragile weapons, but compared to the G and K-43 and G-41 the germans had been issued it was arguably a superior weapon and this would explain the german infantryman's desire to have one. I've never owned an SVT, but have had several dozen g and k-43s. They are, IMHO, junk and I fail to see the allure of them, my own infatuation having worn off two decades ago.

As for Kreighoff, I forgot to add a Ku to my wish list of favorites
