World War II Weaponry
By: Ciaran McElhennon
M1 Thompson
Possibly the most notorious gun in history because of WWII and the Sicilian Mafia
Mauser Karabiner Kar-98k
A German gun often used by Americans during the war.
M1 Garand
A high powered American rifle commonly used with a scope for long range warfare.
Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR)
The browning is a weapon inspired by WWI to have a full auto, man held gun. This, however,
didn't work because of its weight, but it did become an amazing support weapon.
PPSh-41
High powered sub machine gun used by the soviets that has been said to rival the M1
Thompson.
Arisaka Type 99 Rifle
The Arisaka rifle is a bolt-action rifle mainly used by the Japanese during ambushes. They usually
had a bayonet on the front.
