This SMG is very simple and cheap. It's also very easy to use and very easy to produce. It was made by teenagers and women jn soviet factories, including factories in Leningrad under the siege
Not really, if nazi had direct line of sight to the factory they would render it to ruins with artillery fire. You would probably had to walk about a mile to get from factory to frontline.
The design is pretty brilliant, it's really cheap and easy to make, but unlike the Sten it has a robust and reliable magazine. Makes me think a lot of the American M3A1, another gun which, just like the PPS43, is brilliantly simple and economical, yet doesn't sacrifice performance.

Considering the power of this 7.62x25 round in my Tokarev TT33 pistol, I can imagine that this PPS43 would and could be a devastating SMG. Thanks for the video Larry!

As well, I'll have to tell the dealers that sell this Tokarev pistol, that they have the model number incorrect, then finally I'll also have to tell the manufacturer that they have printed the wrong model number here too. I am so sorry for not being as perfect as you would have me be!!
The AK47 does exist, just rarely ever used in any major wars that laymen would think AK47's were used in. Most were Type 56's or AKM's. I only learned a few years ago that almost no AK's at all were used in the Korean War, I always thought they were.
.. For the ppsh.. They copied the series of mp24 and mp34 And for the pps43 , its a steel stock of mp40.. (And its a folding stock like the mp40) So the submachine guns in soviet army are inspire of series of german MP But yes .. The nagant revolver is good , and the rifle too :)
And even more! All of our modern guns are inspired by old spanish muskets, because of their option to shoot! They even have absolutely similar perts, like Barrel and Stock! When I found this, I was struck to the core! I hope you got me;)
when you permanently hungry for years, and under artillery fire everyday, you have very limited stock of every supply you have, and you must do somethink that will help a lot of people end this nightmare and you can do it, well... i think your mind can create really useful things, because you will see all from practical point of view. Simple, but i think its to hard for our modern world to do such things, not exactly weapons but just useful, cheap and reliable things without suffering you know. Conclusion: we all must suffer. Just a little bit of irony.
In a lot of slow-mo footage of WWII SMGs (forgotten weapons) you can see the bolt hits the back of the gun with quite a lot of force after each shot, in this gun the spring is able to absorb all the energy, I think this is a really good thing for controllability, great engineering indeed.
This automatic machine is invented by the designer Sudayev in besieged Leningrad. Sudayev has been recognized as the outstanding designer, and his automatic machine the best automatic machine of the Red Army during war. After war he continued to work on the automatic machine and participated in a competition together with Kalashnikov. His project was considered as the most perspective, however he couldn't finish it as he has died in 1946. If it didn't happen, Kalashnikov could proigat and now Sudayev's submachine gun AS-44 would be considered as a legend, but not joint stock company.
@@holographicmeatloaf5002 May you tell me how MP40 is great? Crappy accuracy? Peeing ballistics coming out of 9mm? Slow rate of fire? Or the tendency to accidentally discharge?
Yeah, they often re-purposed captured PPS-43s and PPSh-41s to fire their ammunition, sometimes they wouldn't even do that, opting to have them straight in 762 Tokarev instead.
Sassy is correct... since 7.62 Tokarev was developed as a hot 7.63 Mauser, the Germans would 7.63 Mauser in captured TT33 pistols (although 7.62 Tokarev ammo is way too hot for the Broomhandle Mauser). I am going to have to research to see if the Mauser ammo would be hot enough for the PPS.
From Poland with love... We, really do great guns, when needed. Please note - polish made "Commie time" firearms are one of best, if not the best on market. In peacetime, with skilled people, resources and proper knowledge - warmachine became new ID and quality. Larry, I strongly belive this SMG was and still is unbeatable regarding cost/ simplicity/ effectivness on a battle field. Still in use, still in private possession (legal). Greatings! Carry on!
It's amazing that the bolt handle slows down and comes to a stop just a smidge before slamming into the back of the slot in the receiver. The bolt actually seems to cycle surprisingly smoothly! It's a minor detail but I'm sure that contributes to how controllable this thing is.

Even though mine is the semi-auto version, it's a blast to shoot. My nephew sneered when I first showed him my PPS-43, then after shooting the first mag, he was grinning from ear to ear.
Grandfather had used it during WWII. This is an automatic pistol good for a trench assault or as tank crew gun. In open field, it neither had the power nor the precision.The round drum magazine apparently was a disaster. But then again, the purpose of the gun was to offer high rate of fire at a close range.
From a production cost/time point of view, maybe. It is a pretty good one overall despite its crudity. I would say it would certainly be in the top 5 with the MP-40, OWEN, M3 a1, Beretta m1938/44 and Suomis KP/31.
If you also look at the production cost and time then yes, without a doubt. It amazes me how much features this rifle and the ppsh41 has. Adjustable front sight, 100/200m rear sight. Excellent quick releasing and inserting magazine. All that and still the cheapest of them all. Compare that to the sten wich has no adjustability, is very uncomfortable and just more worse in every way. Even if you would'nt look at the production costs and just pure shootability and reliability it would probably still be in the top3
I think the Finnish Suomis gun took the honours for best,the MP40 for looks the Sten for cheap,nasty but effective and the US greace gun was very good but i do love the Soviet pepeshas.
Few days ago shot with Finnish KP/44. By the ear rate of fire on that one is a bit slower. It's a nice gun too and really fun to shoot. I think magazine solution on PPS43 is better, allowing faster mag change. KP/44 was designed to use then plentiful Suomi mags.
@@maximilianfranz2158 No, not trolling what so ever... If a German was willingly fighting for the German government (in the military) during WW2, they are a nazi. End of story.
@@mr.techaky7655 Bullshit. My grandfather went to war for defending his familiy and country not for strange ideologies. He was in the nazi party because they forced him.
Far from being best SMGs there is in term of accuracy and handling, but this is definitely the best combination of production cost, battlefield efficiency and reliability of all WW2 SMGs. Just check any channel that focused on gun insides- engineering solutions in this gun are jaw drop brilliand. If i recall correctly it only uses 3 springs and 2 pins in the whole construction. And its production cost is less than a half of a ppsh-41.
Production took about half the material of the ppsh-41 (in weight) and less than half the production time: ~2.3hours vs ~7.1hours (with less specialised equipment).
every Friday night I put in vickers tactical in youtube search and instantly im happy :) ! thanks you Mr.Vickers for this demonstration of the ppsh43 and thank you for your service
My father had one in his collection since I was a little kid. Fun to handle and shoot! Unfortunately, during one overseas move in the late '60's (Army) it was confiscated by customs in Central America. Hated to lose that one.
Wonderful weapon in it’s simplicity and durability in field conditions. Coming out of water, easily drained and almost automatically functional as it becomes above water in the open bolt firing position. Excellent weapon
One important thing -- the PPS magazine was a double-feed. That meant more reliable feeding with way less FTFds, especially comparing to double-stack, but single-feed magazines for such SMGs of the same era as MP-38/40; STEN, Thompson and so on.
ППС это сочетание высокой технологичности , малого веса и при этом прекрасной управляемости при стрельбе автоматическим огнем. Магазины легко снаряжаемые, как у АКМ. Единственный недостаток у магазина это его сильно выступающий упор для защелки с острым углом на верхнем конце. Если его поменять на выступ, аналогичный магазину АК и сделать защелку магазина, аналогично АК, (у ППС защелка с вырезом по оси под выступ магазина) то все было бы для своего времени просто идеально!
Looked like most of the bolt firing cycles weren't hitting max travel like the "constant recoil" system on the Ultimax 100 where the bolt is stopped by spring pressure and doesn't slam into the back of the receiver or a buffer. I imagine it shot pretty smooth.
The PPs 43 is in my eyes the pure essence of a submachine gun. You can't produce a submachine gun in a simpler and function-oriented way. A submachine gun showing the origin of the besieged Leningrad. No grams of "fat" on the gun. And the 7.62 × 25 mm Tokarew M1930 is a remarkably powerful ammunition whose stop effect is not so great. But she does not have to, because a wounded soldier ties up more resources than a dead soldier.

Длинный ход подвижных частей - оттого и отдача маленькая. Хотя прикол в том, что в вв2 вообще было много замечательных стволов с невысокой отдачей. Генералы ещё помнили лихие конные атаки и по тогдашней доктрине солдат ещё более-менее считался воином, который должен поражать противника огнём, потому боевым качествам стрелкового оружия уделялось не мало внимания. пп времён войны имели сравнительно малую отдачу. М3, который "маслёнка" оказывается даже кучнее чем модный раскрученный крисс вектор. Тот же ппс, мп-40, все они не хуже современных образцов по кучности. Исключение разве что ппш. Штурмовых винтовок тогда не... вообще была одна, штурмгевер - и её патрон очень похож на 7.62*39, но автоматика построена так, что отдача намного меньше, чем у калашникова. У этого же чувака есть видео со штурмгевером и там видно, что он мягкий и плавный в пример почти любой современной винтовке. Тот же "гаранд" подбрасывало заметно меньше, чем позднюю м14. Позже всё изменилось. ПП стали компактней. А штурмовые винтовки должны быть проще, удобней и надёжней. Потому что пехотинец должен стрелять. Стрелять много, не особо важно метко или нет. Одно время и в США и в союзе гнались за минимальной отдачей, и придумывали разные хитрости и прибамбасы, но в реальности малейшая жертва в весе, надёжности и простоте этого особо не стоят. Патроны в автомате в современной войне, они не для того чтобы кому-то там вышибить мозги. Они должны свистеть над головами и напоминать противнику "даже и не думай сюда соваться, я активная боевая еденица, у меня ещё 10 рожков и я тебе не рад, сиди в своём укрытии и надейся что тебя не достанет наша артиллерия или снайпера".
These weapons were made in besieged Leningrad, adults were in the war, and children worked in factories, made weapons and ammunition !!! The weapon you are holding in your hands may have been made by children ... This is what makes it legendary!
Indeed, I can tell you that in many villages in Ukraine, even the lesser ones, there is always a statue of a Red Army soldier, normally with a bronze plate underneath displaying the names of those from that village who fell for the Fatherland. In virtually every memorial I saw, the glum looking soldier is holding a PPSh 41 with a drum magazine. You never see a PPS 43 nor a Mosin Nagant rifle. It’s a bit hard to tell why. Maybe the PPS 43 came too late to enjoy the same popular recognition, or probably Stalin liked Shpagin and disliked Sudaev. The PPS was developed in Leningrad, and we know how Stalin disliked Leningrad. All this matters. In any case, the PPS 43 is even better that the PePeShah, as the Soviets called the PPSh. Much cheaper and faster to manufacture, lighter and with a more reasonable rate of fire. Probably as efficient as a MP-40, more reliable than a Sten, more piercing and far reaching than a Greasegun and much cheaper than a Thompson or a Suomi. The best of its time.
As a citizen of Saint-Peterburg, that was called Leningrad that time, I disagree with the fact that Stalin didn't like this city. If he really hadn't liked it, he would have allow nazi invaders to ruin it and rob its museums and palaces. Stalin ordered to prepare the greatest evacuation plan in history, to save citizens from dying in hunger. Leningrad was the second capital of our country and the cradle of revolution, Stalin was a communist and he couldn't hate this city
wartime production of PPS-43 - about half a million, PPSH-41 - 6 million. yes, PPS-43 was better in use and chipper in production, but you need resources, specialists and time to replace model on production line. all of that were in shortage during the war.

@Rus Yara один из критериев незагниваемости, это когда власть не боится свой народ, и уважает его право на свободное ношение оружия, и защиту свой собственности , чести, и жизни, с помощью оного.

Even though mine is the semi-auto version, it's a blast to shoot. My nephew sneered when I first showed him my PPS-43, then after shooting the first mag, he was grinning from ear to ear.
It looks very simple but reliable。
This is my favorite World War 2 Sub machine gun.
What a gun... This has to be one of the best SMGs ever made.
Моя бабушка собирала этот ППД в Ленинграде, ей было 15 лет!
This is a beautiful weapon
Vicker's Tactical video production is always kick ass. Always look forward to the real time to slow and back frame rate transitions.
Гениально просто - феноменально надежно.
Grandfather had used it during WWII. This is an automatic pistol good for a trench assault or as tank crew gun. In open field, it neither had the power nor the precision.The round drum magazine apparently was a disaster. But then again, the purpose of the gun was to offer high rate of fire at a close range.
PPS-43 only use stick mags.
Looks like you story is about PPSH(41), not PPS(43)
Best smg of ww2
Benjamin Awrey maybe not best but very simple and realible
From a production cost/time point of view, maybe. It is a pretty good one overall despite its crudity.
I would say it would certainly be in the top 5 with the MP-40, OWEN, M3 a1, Beretta m1938/44 and Suomis KP/31.
If you also look at the production cost and time then yes, without a doubt. It amazes me how much features this rifle and the ppsh41 has. Adjustable front sight, 100/200m rear sight. Excellent quick releasing and inserting magazine. All that and still the cheapest of them all. Compare that to the sten wich has no adjustability, is very uncomfortable and just more worse in every way. Even if you would'nt look at the production costs and just pure shootability and reliability it would probably still be in the top3
I think the Finnish Suomis gun took the honours for best,the MP40 for looks the Sten for cheap,nasty but effective and the US greace gun was very good but i do love the Soviet pepeshas.
😏 Suomi KP/-31
Few days ago shot with Finnish KP/44. By the ear rate of fire on that one is a bit slower. It's a nice gun too and really fun to shoot. I think magazine solution on PPS43 is better, allowing faster mag change. KP/44 was designed to use then plentiful Suomi mags.
Awesome gun, awesome sound, thanks !
One of my favorite sub guns thanks for the video.
That was the last sound many Nazi heard
shut up. It was the sound soldiers heard last, but not nazis
@@maximilianfranz2158 Hahhahahaha, uh no... All German soldiers during ww2 = nazis... deal with it.

@@maximilianfranz2158 No, not trolling what so ever... If a German was willingly fighting for the German government (in the military) during WW2, they are a nazi. End of story.
@@mr.techaky7655 Bullshit. My grandfather went to war for defending his familiy and country not for strange ideologies. He was in the nazi party because they forced him.
I love your videos Larry to the point. Thanks for your service to our great country.
Far from being best SMGs there is in term of accuracy and handling, but this is definitely the best combination of production cost, battlefield efficiency and reliability of all WW2 SMGs. Just check any channel that focused on gun insides- engineering solutions in this gun are jaw drop brilliand. If i recall correctly it only uses 3 springs and 2 pins in the whole construction. And its production cost is less than a half of a ppsh-41.
Production took about half the material of the ppsh-41 (in weight) and less than half the production time: ~2.3hours vs ~7.1hours (with less specialised equipment).
Гениально просто и кучность шикарная,я думаю,что если использывать современные материалы,можно дать ему вторую жизнь
Простое, надёжное, недорогое в изготовлении. Что и требовалось в те годы.
every Friday night I put in vickers tactical in youtube search and instantly im happy :) ! thanks you Mr.Vickers for this demonstration of the ppsh43 and thank you for your service
Looks like a blast to shoot. All puns intended.
Now that's a lovable SMG! Simple, cheap, reliable, does the job.
Best design SMG in WW2. Cheap , Cool & Effective - Soviet Weapons.
Hei germany😁
My father had one in his collection since I was a little kid. Fun to handle and shoot! Unfortunately, during one overseas move in the late '60's (Army) it was confiscated by customs in Central America. Hated to lose that one.
This Russian gun I’ve in my collection! It’s fabulous!
Wonderful weapon in it’s simplicity and durability in field conditions. Coming out of water, easily drained and almost automatically functional as it becomes above water in the open bolt firing position. Excellent weapon
3:49 !!!!!!! Кучно кладет!!!!
One important thing -- the PPS magazine was a double-feed. That meant more reliable feeding with way less FTFds, especially comparing to double-stack, but single-feed magazines for such SMGs of the same era as MP-38/40; STEN, Thompson and so on.
I like the Russian/Soviet style. Really tough.
Amazing. Very well explanaited. Congratulations.
It's a work horse....
Nice show !!!!!!👍
I love the sound it makes when firing.
i loved this gun back in Call of Duty 2. I prefer it over the PPSH 41
Same :D
ППС это сочетание высокой технологичности , малого веса и при этом прекрасной управляемости при стрельбе автоматическим огнем. Магазины легко снаряжаемые, как у АКМ. Единственный недостаток у магазина это его сильно выступающий упор для защелки с острым углом на верхнем конце. Если его поменять на выступ, аналогичный магазину АК и сделать защелку магазина, аналогично АК, (у ППС защелка с вырезом по оси под выступ магазина) то все было бы для своего времени просто идеально!
Looked like most of the bolt firing cycles weren't hitting max travel like the "constant recoil" system on the Ultimax 100 where the bolt is stopped by spring pressure and doesn't slam into the back of the receiver or a buffer. I imagine it shot pretty smooth.
Great, and cheap weapon. About 250$ in Poland, easy to buy.
The PPs 43 is in my eyes the pure essence of a submachine gun. You can't produce a submachine gun in a simpler and function-oriented way. A submachine gun showing the origin of the besieged Leningrad. No grams of "fat" on the gun. And the 7.62 × 25 mm Tokarew M1930 is a remarkably powerful ammunition whose stop effect is not so great. But she does not have to, because a wounded soldier ties up more resources than a dead soldier.
Such a beautiful gun and mechanism

Simplicity perfected, reliability, easy to mantain, cheap to mass produce, yeah baby!
And light weight

I didn't knew anything about this submachine gun, until Larry show it to us. Thanks man, very appreciated. Now, I am going to do my research .
Leonardo Andres Garcia Pedraza Classic Firearms has them for sale, the stocks are tac welded and they're not full auto. I think they're running around $560 or so.

О чем ты.Это самое совершенное оружие второй мировой без вариантов...настоящие гении его придумали
Fixin to light it up Vickers Tactical style... love these videos! Love watching the action in slow-mo.
If beauty could be found in utility, this is it. I saw Ian disassemble this gun. It's really simple and clever in design, with certain parts doing multiple things. Also it is more of a pressed metal than stamped. Would love to shoot one, and own one or a variant someday.
Главная фишка, магазин уникальной и передовой на тот момент разработки.
To me, this looks kinda like a hybrid between the PPSH and the MP40.
The design philosophy of the PPS-43 was quite clearly what had inspired that for the AK platform. That's for sure :)
That full-auto sound is music.
It's a very pleasant weapon to shoot, I guess the caliber is perfect for it. Very little recoil, the gun itself is not heavy, really cool experience.
Длинный ход подвижных частей - оттого и отдача маленькая.
Хотя прикол в том, что в вв2 вообще было много замечательных стволов с невысокой отдачей. Генералы ещё помнили лихие конные атаки и по тогдашней доктрине солдат ещё более-менее считался воином, который должен поражать противника огнём, потому боевым качествам стрелкового оружия уделялось не мало внимания.
пп времён войны имели сравнительно малую отдачу. М3, который "маслёнка" оказывается даже кучнее чем модный раскрученный крисс вектор. Тот же ппс, мп-40, все они не хуже современных образцов по кучности. Исключение разве что ппш. Штурмовых винтовок тогда не... вообще была одна, штурмгевер - и её патрон очень похож на 7.62*39, но автоматика построена так, что отдача намного меньше, чем у калашникова. У этого же чувака есть видео со штурмгевером и там видно, что он мягкий и плавный в пример почти любой современной винтовке. Тот же "гаранд" подбрасывало заметно меньше, чем позднюю м14.
Позже всё изменилось. ПП стали компактней. А штурмовые винтовки должны быть проще, удобней и надёжней. Потому что пехотинец должен стрелять. Стрелять много, не особо важно метко или нет. Одно время и в США и в союзе гнались за минимальной отдачей, и придумывали разные хитрости и прибамбасы, но в реальности малейшая жертва в весе, надёжности и простоте этого особо не стоят. Патроны в автомате в современной войне, они не для того чтобы кому-то там вышибить мозги. Они должны свистеть над головами и напоминать противнику "даже и не думай сюда соваться, я активная боевая еденица, у меня ещё 10 рожков и я тебе не рад, сиди в своём укрытии и надейся что тебя не достанет наша артиллерия или снайпера".
А СВТ ???
Thanks for the video Larry
Stamping and minimum milling. Lack of wood. Convenient in production, irreplaceable in the raid.
These weapons were made in besieged Leningrad, adults were in the war, and children worked in factories, made weapons and ammunition !!! The weapon you are holding in your hands may have been made by children ... This is what makes it legendary!
The PPS was made to arm guys more quickly than the PPSh and to time to make them was half
Pleeaaasseee do more shooting montages like this one with the no slowmo mag dumps added in AWESOME VID!!
With that 8 inch barrel velocities must be at least 1800-1900 fps. Quite the little hornets nest.

What a cool SMG!!! Thanks!
Indeed, I can tell you that in many villages in Ukraine, even the lesser ones, there is always a statue of a Red Army soldier, normally with a bronze plate underneath displaying the names of those from that village who fell for the Fatherland. In virtually every memorial I saw, the glum looking soldier is holding a PPSh 41 with a drum magazine. You never see a PPS 43 nor a Mosin Nagant rifle. It’s a bit hard to tell why. Maybe the PPS 43 came too late to enjoy the same popular recognition, or probably Stalin liked Shpagin and disliked Sudaev. The PPS was developed in Leningrad, and we know how Stalin disliked Leningrad. All this matters. In any case, the PPS 43 is even better that the PePeShah, as the Soviets called the PPSh. Much cheaper and faster to manufacture, lighter and with a more reasonable rate of fire. Probably as efficient as a MP-40, more reliable than a Sten, more piercing and far reaching than a Greasegun and much cheaper than a Thompson or a Suomi. The best of its time.
As a citizen of Saint-Peterburg, that was called Leningrad that time, I disagree with the fact that Stalin didn't like this city. If he really hadn't liked it, he would have allow nazi invaders to ruin it and rob its museums and palaces. Stalin ordered to prepare the greatest evacuation plan in history, to save citizens from dying in hunger. Leningrad was the second capital of our country and the cradle of revolution, Stalin was a communist and he couldn't hate this city
wartime production of PPS-43 - about half a million, PPSH-41 - 6 million. yes, PPS-43 was better in use and chipper in production, but you need resources, specialists and time to replace model on production line. all of that were in shortage during the war.
Love to have one in operating condition and several cases of Combloc 7.62X25 steel core ammo.
