The STG-44 was the first modern assault rifle. It fired a shortened 8mm Mauser cartridge in 8mm Kurz. The STG-44 was captured in great numbers by the Russians and was the starting point for the development of the AK-47. It was selective Fire with a 30 round detachable box magazine. It had a cyclic rate of fire that could compete with submachine guns like the MP40 and the Thompson but could fire accurately at mid range of 300 to 400 meters. It was NOT widely regarded as " a worthless piece of shite".
