The use of the FG42 wouldn't make much historical sense.
The number 42 indicates it entered service in 42, so it did exist by early 44.
FG42 means: Fallschirmjagergewehr 42
Fallschirmjager means "Paratrooper" and "gewehr" is gun.
Which means the FG42 is a PARATROOPER weapon, supplied almost exclusily to Fallschirmjager units in VERY limited quantity (only 7000 were ever made).
So it's presense in large quantities amoung Wehrmacht and SS units would be even more far fetched than the Stg44 as it is in the game now.
Of course since my clan is the 1st Fallschirmjager Division I'd like to use one.
