The Sturmgewehr 52 was an Assault rifle manufactured by the government owned W+F Bern of Switzerland. It was chambered in the 7.5mm Kurzpatrone cartridge and later the 7.5mm Swiss Service round as the Sturmgewehr 54, which was oddily fed from the right hand side. The Sturmgewehr 52 was heavily patterned after the German FG42 as it was fed from the side from a 30/40 round magazine and was also fitted with a muzzle capable of launching rifle grenades.
