It was known as the MP43, MP44 (despite it being a full-sized rifle, not a submachine gun as the 'MP' designation would indicate), and finally as the StG 44 (Sturmgewehr = storm rifle) as development on the rifle progressed. The STG 44 was the first assault rifle able to be made cheaply, with good quality, an put into a highly effective design, until this point, assault rifles were usually difficult to produce, suffered high recoil, or were not reliable.
