Does the M2 flamethrower count? If it did, I'd pick that one. Otherwise I'd pick the M1 Garand.

I suppose the M2 flamethrower could count as a WWII weapon.

Thanks to all that have posted so far, quite a few since I last checked

Ahh, we can never forget the Panzerwerfer now can we?
That tank is freakin' awesome isn't it? Who doesn't love it? heh.
Fear the halfback as well.

Or the mighty King Tiger, now that would make everyone run if they saw that coming

A well place rpg shot wold take care of those and i still perfer the M1 Grand

I was quite sure mate that RPG were not used in WWII. M1's are still a great gun, but I like the Kar98 better.

Personally my favorite is the Gewehr 43, I since loved this gun when I first saw it.

The sturmgewehr42 is my favorite. Nice assault weapon with devasting power.

I would have to choose the trench shotgun, and the M1. At our school we have a ROTC drill team and have M1 rifles. Their fun to spin and use, even though they dont have a fireing pin. But one thing that does get me with that is most other schools have fake ones that are a whole lot lighter, and easier to spin.
Oh yea, click my dragon

um.. rpg were used in ww2 look it up!

But not in massive quantities, only in a few battles cometman202.

Also, please none of this egg business on this thread. If you would like people to click it, then post in in your about or a thread.

Molotov because its our (Finnish people) invention!

The best gun of WW2 is the STG-44.
First of all, it is the gun that gave the modern day AK-47 its design. In fact, many people don't even realize that.
Second of all, if the German forces would have recieved the design of the STG-44 any earlier than when they did get it, they might of won the great war.
Finally, this gun is one that even American soldiers liked. Stories have been told of American soldiers dropping their M1 Garand or Thompson M1A1 and picking up a STG-44 from other soldiers they have killed.
Overall, it is just a great gun that could have caused us to lose the great war.

Hahah, I'am glad that someone brought up Molotov cocktails, the poor man's bomb. Easy to make, but very destructive and dangerous.

Tokarev SVT-40 was used by Lyudmila Pavlichenko to kill 309 people in WWII a record for a woman.
