Russian PPSh 41 35-Round Box Magazine

Original Item: The Russian PPSh 41 submachine gun (Pistolet Pulemet) was originally designed to use a 71-round drum magazine based on a Finnish design, but it was soon recognized that box magazines were less expensive, and a 35-round curved box magazine was developed. Wartime photographs indicate that the box magazine was issued very widely.

IMA has found a very few PPSh 41 magazines. The design corresponds to the Russian second issue of WW2 and the Yugoslavian post-war manufacture.
