  Shpagin PPSh 41 Burp Gun
North Korea began its invasion of South Korea armed largely with Soviet weapons such as the Model PPSh41, and a variety of Japanese weapons captured by the Soviets.
Designed by George Shpagin to meet desperate need, following the USSR's bitter war with Finland and the invasion by Germany, the PPSh submachine gun utilized the simple blowback action, and fires from the open bolt position.
At that time they also began extensive manufacture of their own models of Soviet weapons, such as the Chinese burp gun, using the box magazine for reasons much the same as the USSR.

 [No title]
The rate of fire was high, but a rudimentary compensator helped to steady the climb of the muzzle.
About 5 million PPSh guns had been made by 1945, and the Soviets adapted their infantry tactics to take full advantage of such huge numbers: often complete units were armed with nothing else.
In Russia, the PPSh went out of service in the late 1950s, but it has been supplied in enormous quantities to the satellite and pre-Communist countries, so that it will still be seen for many years.

 PPSh-41 Tips
Before welding the plate, I placed a PPSh mag in the mag well and noted where the top round was in relation to the ejector.
Then, placing the Sten mag into the well, I positioned the plate with the bar so the top round is in the same position as the original mag and spot welded the plate/bar to the rear of the Sten mag.
The Suomi box mags were easier since the lockup on the rear is identical to the PPSh mag lockup but slightly larger.

The impetus for the development of the PPSh came partly from the Winter War against Finland, where it was found that submachine guns were a highly effective tool for close-quarter fighting in forests or built-up urban areas.
Some of the PPSh's drawbacks included the difficulty of reloading, the tendency of the drums to jam (solved by the box magazines) and the high risk of accidental discharge when dropped - the last being a fault common to all open bolt submachine gun designs.
The PPSh is a select fire weapon, and can be fired in a semi-automatic mode by toggling the position of a selector switch beneath the trigger guard, next to the trigger.

The Albanian Party of Labour, Partia e Punës e Shqipërisë, PPSh in Albanian, was the sole legal political party in Albania during communist rule (1946-1991).
In 1991, the PPSh reformed and became the social-democratic Socialist Party of Albania, one of the two major political parties in Albania.
The staunchly orthodox stand of the PPSh attracted many political groupings around the world, particularly among Maoists who were not content with the CPC attitude in the late 1970s.

 PPSh 9mm
My PPSh works very well in 9x19, but only after a lot of experimentation, a couple of trips to the doctor's office to get pieces of brass taken out.
Make sure when you are trying different magazines for functioning, to hold the weapon so that the ejection port is facing at an angle, thereby if an 'out of battery' firing occurs, the resulting brass shards will not propel in your direction or toward someone standing next to you.
There have been many who have converted the PPSh to 9x19 with none of the problems as I have mentioned above; however, I feel it is important to mention what happened to me so you can be aware of potential dangers and thus avoid any injury.

Sometimes with the PPsH you get hit in the face with your spent casings, and the finish and quality of the weapon is generally lower overall, but there really isn't any gun I'd rather have in a close assault.
The PPsH also fires from an open bolt and can go off if it is dropped, whereas most of the saftey issues in regards to premature firing in the MP38 were fixed in the MP 40.
Captured 'stock' PPsh could be used as expediant weapons for crews or to bolster a defense (each position gets a 'final-fire' capability in addition to its regular carbine or other weapon).

PPSH: It is a spray and pray, and the 71 rounds makes it a little rediculous.
The PPSH, only because you need to owto aviod hails of enemy bulets to spray, and getting that "Lucky Headshot" takes more skill than running around pointing the shotgun at anything that moves.
the PPSH is more noobie cuz all you do is unload the 71 rounds and hope you hit somthing,, on the other hand with the shotty you must actually get within range and its slow rate of fire makes it a weapon for pro's only.

One of the key things that made this gun cheaper was that there were no screws or bolts on it, all metal parts were stamped.
The PPSh not only was better from a manufacturing point of view, it turned out to be superior in other areas as well.
The PPSh had a phenomenal rate of fire, around 900 RPM (it utilized a crude compensator to lessen muzzle climb), as well as an outstanding reputation for durability and low maintenance.

But the ppsh is not worser than a mp40 in GFM, you just have to stand our crouch and aim or maybe use semi fire mode.
The round used by the PPSH is a fairly weak round used in the TT33 pistol (i think tt33 please correct me if im wrong on the name) just like with the MP40 and the Luger using the same ammo (9mm).
Edit - forgot to mention, it was quite popular for PPSH users in WW2 to use one 71 round magazine in the drum while only carrying 30 round mags on their belt since they were lighter and less bulky.

 US troops using PPSh?: Murdoc Online
The PPSH is actually a pretty good weapon for this setting.
High rate of fire, high capacity (71 round drums!), extreme reliability due to simple construction, much more power then any common pistol round (special PPsH only loadings of the 7.62x25: 2000fps+), plenty of ammo (corrosive lasts forever!), easy to take down, compact, better range then a normal smg, and mean looks.
The only drawback to the PPsH is probably its weight; the thing only has a 10” barrel but weighs over 10lbs according world.guns.ru.
