I have never heard of that either. The only gun I have ever heard of with the Nazis that involved a bent barrel was an SMG prototype for tank crews where the idea was that they could spray it out at anyone on their tank while still being protected inside. But it was abandoned because the forces put on the bullets caused them to effectively "explode" inside the barrel.
Other than that, I dont understand why this is still a problem, other than people having an agenda to do Holocaust Denial. We found the camps in American territory as well, and those werent even the true death camps like Auschwitz. American soldiers had to be stopped by their officers on more than one occasion from dishing out retribution because even at the time they wanted it all documented so it could be put to record in a court of law, and killing the camp guards right then and there kind of made that difficult to do, no matter how much they deserved it.
We made sure to to meticulously document all of this shit, and I have straight up seen people say "The abundance of evidence proves its false." And that its now making a comeback among a lot of people my age is infuriating to me as a student of history. That you can have all of the evidence in the world, and still dare to claim "That never happened" because its convenient for a totally separate and unrelated political narrative of yours.
Literal assault rifle (Sturmgewehr), just originally named a machine pistol before this term was coined by Literally Hitler.
Forgotten Weapons has a video about it - mainly about the less extreme 30 degree bend version for urban combat, but also mentions the 90 degree bend version intended to be installed in vehicles.
The worst part is, I don't even think many of them believe their own bullshit.
It's similar to January 6th: you're not upset about it. You're glad about what happened: 4 dead Trump supporters and 1 dead cop. The Left considers that a win-win.
Not one Holocaust Denier would object to the Holocaust if it were happening in front of him. They're just not being honest.
