Cross of Iron (1977)

Cross of Iron is an 1977 film directed by Sam Peckinpah & starring James Coburn, Maximilian Schell and James Mason. It concerns a company of German soldiers fighting on the Russian front during World War II.

PPSh-41

Steiner (James Coburn), as well as many of men he is commanding, loots a PPSh-41 in the first sequence. Steiner then uses it throughout the film. Originally chambered for 7.62x25. The PPSh-41 was later adopted by the German army & renamed the MP717(r) and re-chambered for 9mm parabellum. It should be noted that the drum magazine could not be used with the 9mm conversion, so Steiner's has to be in the original caliber.
