History of the Maxim Machine Gun 1941

The heavy machine gun Maxim model 1910, produced in the Soviet Union under license since the early 20th century, played a crucial role during World War II. Most often operated by a two- or three-person crew, with its characteristic water-cooled barrel and two- or wheeled carriage, it was standard equipment for Red Army infantry. The 1941 model saw mass use during the defense of Moscow, Stalingrad, and in later stages of the conflict. It remained in service until the end of the war, and in some armies even in the postwar period.
