  Milled receiver is the big difference. Although MP38 did evolve over time for an early one the mag well and maybe the magazine would look different.  Also the bolt handle would have a hook instead of the safety bolt handle pictured.  If anyone really cares to tweak the current model or make a new one I have crap load of books with pretty pictures.

Did the MP40 exist in time for the 1940 Western Europe campaign? When were the design changes from the MP38 implemented?

The MP40 was the simplification of the MP38 wich was a simplification of the MP36. The numbers is the year of introduction of the model i think. And since the MP40 model did not changed after 1940 it remained this way




i think. SOS Von mudra can confirm this

thx a lot Toddel !

About smg, german was a step ahead the other countries (mp18,mp34,mp38 used for campaign of france) however compared to the german army, the smg was still very rare.

On the contrary, for the french side, tromblon or 60mm was more wide spread in the army.

So imo, it's will certainly depends which units on which maps. Some french unit could be only using lebel for instance...

Thanks for the hint, Toddel, you just saved my otherwise boring evening.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke, that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep o'er his hall, with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
and not a soul to hear.

Don't forget phase 2: Fall Rot.

The fighting in June 1940 always gets overlooked by historians because strategically the fate of France was decided in May, but in terms of fighting the battles were often far bloodier. The French were desperate, outnumbered about 3 to 1 with only a shadow of their army left to defend France proper, but nevertheless in June 1940 the Germans took a daily casualty rate double that of May.
