MP40
,no edit summary
*The experimental version of MP40 called MP40/I had 2 magazine housings, allowing operators to switch to another magazine without inserting a fresh magazine by pressing the latch at the front of magazine housing. The MP40/I was cancelled before entering a service or simply further test. The weight of MP40 became 12 pound heavier over the normal one, and the vulnerability of jamming was the reason to cancel the dual-mag production.<ref>[https://www.forgottenweapons.com/submachine-guns/mp40i-dual-mag/ MP40/I, the dual-magazine MP40]</ref>
*Her name was MP38 in official art before changed as MP40 a year ago.<ref>[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CHLdLtOUgAAkzIs.png:orig An early official art of MP40]</ref>
*MP40's uniform appears to be based on the Panzer uniform worn by German tank crews during WW2. This would likely fit in with the the weapon's role as personal defense for tank crews, as well as the black coloration which was designed to prevent oil stains from showing on the uniform. The saber that she carries is likely also a reference to the fact that submachine guns were often carried by commanding officers of infantry platoons at the time.
