On April 29, 1897, Georgy Semyonovich Shpagin was born, a famous Soviet weapons designer.
Throughout his career, he worked alongside many famous Soviet weapons designers such as Kalashnikov, Degtyaryov, Fyodorov and Tokarev. He also worked on some weapons with them. For example, the DShK heavy machine gun, which remains in service to this day.
But Shpagin’s real fame came with the submachine gun of his design - the iconic PPSh, the most mass-produced submachine gun of the Red Army. By the end of the war, more than 6 million had been produced! Its reliability, simplicity and extensive use made the PPSh one of the symbols of the USSR in World War II.
