The VG1-5 used MP/StG44 magazines.

Other use:
- Prototype Kar43 with MP/StG44 magazines
- Pre production (0) series StG45(M)

Post war:
- French prototypes
- Spanish prototypes
- Belgian FN FAL prototypes

There was also a small run of K98k's made late in the war chambered for it.

StG 45?? I'd sure like to see the drawings or a picture of that gun. Must have been something amazing

It is 7,92 kurz - just in case you'd like to do a research on the www.

I would've imagined something else. It is not as hot as the StG 43..

Thanks for the many replies. I learn something everyday. lol. I cant believe I misspelled Kurz as kurtz.. That German Z sounds like TZ . I have to watch my spelling.

don't forget the mkb-42(h) and mkb-42(w), 2 weapons different from stg-44 series. mauser made several different prototypes, the gerat 06 and 06h, very different from each other, as well as the pre production stg 45 prototype which is basically a gerat 06h.
several other german manufacturers produced prototype weapons for this cartridge as well, in addition louis stange supposedly was interested in making a version of the fg-42 for this round, and it is ever so remotely possible such a prototype may have been made...
