Получившаяся винтовка получила обозначение Gewehr 43 (краткие обозначения Gew.43 или G43), а в 1944 году она была переименована в карабин Kar.43 (Karabiner 43, K43), без изменения конструкции.
На базе К43 был создан целый ряд экспериментальных разработок, включающих автоматическую винтовку, имеющую возможность стрельбы очередями, а также вариант под патрон 7.92х33мм Kurtz, использовавший 30-патронные магазины от Stg.44, но в серии эти варианты не выпускались.
По окончании войны производство винтовок К43 не возобновлялось, но небольшое их количество использовалось в ранний послевоенный период Чехословацкой армией в качестве снайперского оружия.

The K 43 was issued in limited numbers in 1944 and 1945 to units of the Wehrmacht.
Earlier examples of the K 43 show better fit and finish, and later examples can be quite rough, with rough metal casting used for the receiver and the minimum machining needed to make a functioning weapon.

It was the standard rifle, though submachine guns were often preferred, especially for urban combat where the rifle's range was not very useful.

The SG44 was originally called the Maschinenpistol 43, but when Hitler cancelled the MP43 project for dubious reasons, its designers were so confident in its benefits, they changed the name and secretly continued research.
Gewehr 43 (Gew 43) was a off-shoot of earlier German semiautomatic rifle Gewehr 41 (Gew 41) which saw very limited service during WWII.
The result was Gew 43, which was produced in relatively large quantities (349,278 plus further 54,435 with Gew 43ZF with ZF41 optical sights) altought output was never enough to make Gew 43 replacement for Kar 98k.

When the StG44 was introduced, much of the Wehrmacht was armed with either submachine guns or bolt-action rifles such as the Karabiner 98k.
A primary use of the MP44/StG44 was to counter the Soviet PPS and PPSH submachine guns, which used a 7.62 x 25 mm round (not entirely interchangeable with the 7.62 Mauser round, introduced with the 1896 Mauser "Broomhandle" pistol).

 Gewehr 43 Information
It was accepted and entered service as the Gewehr 43, and in 1944 renamed Karabiner 43, with production amounting just over 400,000.
By 1940, it became apparent that some form of a semi-automatic rifle with a higher rate of fire than the existing bolt-action rifle's was needed to improve the infantry's combat efficiency.
The weapon could use the Schiessbecher device for firing rifle grenades (standard on the Kar 98k as well) and could use a Schalldämpfer suppressor; however the G 43 could not use a bayonet, a side-effect of the original design having the Bang system at the front.

Meanwhile the changed version of the original Mkb 42(H) was called the Maschinenpistole 43 (MP43) to disguise it as an upgrade to existing submachine guns.
Another change was introduced to allow the fitting of the grenade launcher attachments from the earlier MKb 42(H) led to the MP43/1, as opposed to fittings for the launcher from the Kar 98k on the original MP43.

 MP43 or MP44 Sturmgewehr; who's right ? - Military Photos
A primary use of the MP44/StG44 was to counter the Soviet PPS and PPSH submachine guns, which used a 7.62 x 25 mm round (not entirely interchangeable with the 7.62 Mauser round, introduced with the 1896 Mauser "Broomhandle" pistol).
While the design details are quite different, the purpose of the StG-44 was obviously carried on in the most famous and most numerous assault rifle, the AK-47.
The biggest difference between MKB42(H) and MP 43 is that MKB42(H) is fired from an open bolt and MP 43 from a closed bolt.
