Hugo SCHMEISSER was born in Germany on September 24, 1884. He can be considered as the
John Browning of Germany. In order to stop the heavy losses resulting from trench warfare (1915-
1917), the German High Command decided to design an easy to handle weapon capable of rapid
fire. In 1918, Hugo SCHMEISSER and the Bergmann company released the MP18/1, of which some
35 000 units were produced. Despite the German capitulation and the restrictions imposed by
Treaty of Versailles, Hugo SCHMEISSER secretly developed the MP28, MP34 and MP36. This work led
to the famous MP40. He was also responsible for the Sturmgewehr 44. He was forcibly recruited
by the Red Army from 1946 to 1952 to participate in the development of arms.
