		I'm sorry mate, but I have to dispute your answer to No. 2 - the so-called "Schmeisser" Machine pistol was in fact the MP38/40 series developed in a factory where Hugo Schmeisser was manager.
		The design group for the MKb 42 (the forerunner of the Sturmgewehr 43/44) was also headed by Hugo Schmeisser.
		Whilst Hugo Schmeisser clearly headed up the MP43/44 Design team, I can't find any reference to his name being linked to the weapon in common use.

	Historic Firearm of the Month, July 2000
		Despite the strictures of the Treaty of Versailles, the adoption of Schmeisser's "maschinenpistole," or machine pistol, put Germany squarely at the head of weapons technology among the belligerent nations, and it retained this position until the Second World War.
		As originally fielded, the MP18, I was equipped with the "snail drum" 32 round magazine from the Artillery Luger pistol, which was inserted into an special magazine well which was angled some sixty degrees to the rear so as to ensure that the rounds were presented to the bolt at the optimum feed angle.
		Interestingly, Hugo Schmeisser had originally designed the MP18, I to accept a staggered row stick magazine, and had only changed the design to accept the snail drum magazine at the request of the Rifle Testing Commission.

	Schmeisser - THR
		In my understanding the term Schmeisser during WWII was used for the MP38 and MP40, even though Schmeisser didn't actually design those weapons.
		Schmeisser did design the MP41 - basically a MP40 with Single/Full fire modes - the MP40 is full auto only.
		Yeah, the MP38/40 were built for Vollmer and Erma, but Schmeisser had some hand in the design.

	Axis Weapons
		The MP40 won the admiration of Allied soldiers, who often referred to the MP40 as the "Schmeisser," despite the fact that firearms engineer Hugo Schmeisser, designer of the Bergmann MP18 submachine gun in 1918, was not involved in the design of either the MP38 or the MP40.
		Tests had shown that the normal rifle cartridge was too powerful for an automatic rifle, making the weapon too difficult to control when firing bursts - hence, the use of the short-case cartridge.
		The rifle that Schmeisser developed, originally designated the MP43, proved to be a resounding success.

		They referred to it as the 'Schmeisser', even though the company of weapons designer Hugo Schmeisser, famous for the Bergmann MP-18 submachine gun from WW I, had nothing to do with the MP38 or the MP40.

	MP 40
		The designer of the MP38/40 was Heinrich Vollmer not Hugo Schmeisser.
		An MP38 can be easily distinguished from an MP40 by a round hole in the magazine feed, and a series of small grooves along the length of the upper cylinder.
		Although the name was evocative, Hugo Schmeisser himself did not design the MP40, but helped with the design of the MP41, which was effectively a MP40 with an old-fashioned wooden rifle stock, and the Sturmgewehr 44.

	Submachine gun Summary
		The first submachine gun was made by Hugo Schmeisser, a German firearm designer, toward the end of World War I. He experimented with semiautomatic pistols, which fired rounds at lower velocities than standard guns.
		Schmeisser used a heavy bolt to minimize the spring's motion so the gun would not operate faster than the mechanism could handle.
		The Germans came out with a version of the Schmeisser, often called the "burp gun" by the Allies.

		During the First World War, Hugo Schmeisser designed the MP18/I, the first practical submachine gun to see widespread issue.
		By 1928 Hugo Schmeisser, who now worked at CG Haenel, had redesigned his MP18/I. The main difference was the provision of a selector, to allow the gunner to fire single shots in addition to bursts.
		The stock was patterned after the Enfield rifle, a mount for the Pattern 07 bayonet was fitted and some parts were made of brass.

		Rheinmetall-Borsig (some said Krieghoff) presented its FG42(Fallschirmjaeger Gewehr 42), perhaps more modern than the two MKb42s, but using a heavy 8x57 mm cartridge.

		The weapon was to be optimized for close combat at ranges of no more than 200 meters, as simple in construction as possible, and to be chambered for the 9mm Parabellum cartridge.
		Schmeisser's gun, under the sponsorship of Waffenfabrik Theodor Bergmann, was selected by the Commission in 1918.
		The weapon was designated Maschinenpistole (MP) 18, I. Plans were laid to incorporate six machine pistol detachments per infantry company.

		The German breakthrough therefore came when an order was given in April 1938 to develop a weapon that used the specially developed Maschinenkarabiner-Patrone 7.92x33 or Kurzpatrone, later also called Pistolenpatrone 43, that was essentially a shortened Mauser 7.9mm standard rifle cartridge filled with pistol ammunition powder.
		The first was constructed by the company Walther and was called Maschinenkarabiner 42 (W) or Mkb 42(W), the other was designed by Hugo Schmeisser from the company Haenel in Suhl under the designation Mkb 42(H).
		The two are easily discerned because the Haenel-design has a second barrel housing the gas-operation channel that reaches almost to the muzzle.

		The primary weapons of the time, the slow firing repeater rifle and the relatively immobile machine gun were found insufficient and the Spandau Rifle Testing Commission began research on developing a sub-machine gun in late 1915.
		In 1917 Hugo Schmeisser, then in the employ of the Theodor Bergmann Weapons factory in Suhl, developed the first German fully automatic sub-machine gun, designated the MP18/I, which was to be the forerunner of all the MP’s to follow.
		The fully automatic, blow back action, MP41 utilized a thirty-two cartridge stick magazine with the standard 9mm Parabellum cartridge and had a sustained rate of fire of three hundred fifty to four hundred rounds per minute.

	The first SMG ever made - The SecurityArms Message Forum
		Following the recommendations of the German Rifle Testing Commission (Spandau) for an individual, light weight weapon capable of fully automatic fire, Hugo Schmeisser was asked to develop a weapon for the close quarters combat of trench warfare.
		The weight helps in accurate aim of long bursts, the bolt design will be used almost unchanged in all models of german made MPs and the british Lanchester and Sten.
		MP 40 will be called wrongly Schmeissers by US troops but in fact historically there is only one Schmeisser, the MP 18/1.
