An intriguing invention

SOLD!
But go on and read about what why it's so special!

The Krummerlauf
or "bent barrel".

What is it exactly? Well, it's a bent barrel with a periscope sighting device for shooting around corners... that's right...

shooting around corners.

The idea of a bent barrel existed in several variants:  an "I" version for infantry use, a "P" version for use in tanks (to cover infantry), versions with 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90°, and a version for the STGW44 and one for the MG42.  Only the 30° "I" version for the STGW44 was produced in any numbers.

The first successful weapon  was the German Krummerlauf, which was attached to either the MP44/STG44 assault rifle or the MG42 machine gun.

The sighting device on this one is not present.
