And the “gun historian” police chief says these StG’s were issued to the SS. Wrong. I was able to fire one of these once a few years ago. It was great. This is the gun the Russians copied to make the AK-47, but that’s another can of worms.
And this gun can be donated to a museum, even if it’s not registered.
How does that museum exemption work? Is there a special exemption in the law?
Just kidding ... this is a staged photo. Also, I don't think they had dish tv in 1944.
