7.65 X 35 FURRER

This was a “Pistolengewehr” development dating from around 1921 by Swiss engineer Adolf Furrer, who was the director of Waffenfabrik Bern. The Pistolengewehr was a toggle-action short-recoil operated weapon with a side-mounted 30 round magazine with a wooden stock. It was based on a shortened 7.5×55 GP11 case which used a 123gr round-nosed bullet at a little over 2,000 fps. WWI had taught designers like Furrer that more firefights took place at shorter distances, for which the GP11 was kind of over-powered. The idea was making a smaller cartridge so the soldier could carry more ammunition and a new magazine fed semi-automatic service rifle for more fire power.

The Furrer 1922 would be a M2 carbine with better accuracy but a lower rate of fire but same great damage. Most SMG are around 20 to 25 MM long 30 to 35 fall into the carbine round. i know you are all going to dogpile into br3 because apparently Germany only needs to be balanced against the USSR. This would make a great br4 assault rifle the way the m2 carbine should have been at br5. I will only pointy out if this is br3 then the m2 carbine needs to be a br4 assault rifle.
