re: #81 Shiplord Kirel

Speaking of guns, the EDL type on the right in the second picture is holding a “Schmeisser” MP-40 submachine gun, an iconic German weapon from the World War 2 period. The other one has a more modern MP-5. Unless these are de-activated show pieces or non-functioning replicas, they are massively illegal in the UK. They are illegal even here without the special license mentioned above or a semi-auto conversion.

The MP-40 is called a “Schmeisser”, though neither Louis Schmeisser nor his son Hugo played any role in its design.
