History
Heinrich von Wimmersperg conceived the Spz rifle in 1945 as a cost-efficient alternative to the StG 44. No original prototypes are known to have been made and it is likely that the project existed only on paper. It is possible that Wimmersperg designed the weapons on behalf of Spreewerk.
The weapon is supposedly mainly comprised of Sten parts, with various other parts from the StG 44. Three variants were designed; all were [gas operated, had swappable barrels and were select-fire.
Variants
The weapon had three known variants.
1.Spz-l (Lange bauart)
Long variant.
2. Spz-kr (Kurze bauart mit Regler für serienfeuer)
Short variant with burst-fire selector.
3. Spz-kv (Kurze bauart mit Verschlußzündung)
Short variant that was striker.

Nope. Absolutely not. We already have 1 paper gun and that thing’s absolutely atrocious to play against. I’d much prefer we keep the game to functional prototypes and better
The Japs are whatever. They genuinely have nothing else because they put everything they had into 2 boats (which we then put on the bottom of the ocean). I’m not happy about it either, but I can overlook that one in particular because otherwise the Japs will have nothing
The Axis, on the other hand, is one of the most filled trees and have absolutely 0 need for any paper at all. Come back will a functioning prototype built during the war, and then we can talk. This paper crap is disgusting. There’s no caliber it used, there’s no RoF, there’s no recoil, there is nothing but “well here’s what the notes on the side of the blueprint said” and then DF will have to make up every stat for it and what’s even the point then? Might as well add laser weapons
The caliber is clearly written. Perhaps you should read a bit more carefully. As for the RoF and recoil you can make an argument. But those could also be found by doing a more in-depth research. There is no reason to get overtly excited about this. I just found an interesting gun and thought of sharing the idea with the community. Just trying to have a nice conversation around here.
funny enough SPZ is an abbreviation for toy in German and since the Germans saw Sten as a toy that might explain why it has SPZ in the name BTW I’m cool with this gun I enjoy playing weird stuff in Enlisted one of its appeals for me is that doesn’t care if it existed or not as long as its ww2 I’m good
I’m all for cool prototypes in the game. I love all the interesting weapons I never heard of before playing this game! I want more prototypes for GO and Preemie Squads
Prototypes that were built during the war though. Built and functional. No wooden mockups. No paper
to each their own but its cool Gun would love to see if you don’t mind you can also suggest STG(45)(H) there are known examples
450 rpm and it uses STG-44 30 round 8mm kurz mag
Yeah. I just searched for this particular gun on Google Images and these are the images that popped up. So I thought of adding them in the post. Might be some different versions of the same weapon.
