When the United States entered World War II, the legendary Thompson submachine gun was the standard automatic weapon. Soldiers loved it. But there was one major problem — it was incredibly expensive. At nearly $200 per unit in 1940s money, America needed something cheaper, faster, and easier to mass-produce. The result? The M3 submachine gun — better known as the “Grease Gun.” Built from stamped sheet metal, crude welds, and minimal machining, it looked like something made in a garage. Soldiers initially hated it. It jammed. The magazine design caused problems. The safety was questionable. And yes — it was originally intended to be disposable. Yet somehow… this cheap wartime stopgap weapon would go on to serve in: • World War II • The Korean War • Vietnam • The Gulf War • Even Special Forces units How did a weapon designed to be thrown away survive nearly 50 years of military service? In this video, we break down: • Why the Thompson was too expensive • How the M3 was inspired by the British Sten • The dangerous design flaws • Why soldiers eventually respected it • And how it outlived weapons that were meant to replace it This is the full story of the M3 Grease Gun. #WWII #GreaseGun #M3SubmachineGun #MilitaryHistory #WorldWar2 #USArmy #Thompson #WarDocumentary #HistoryExplained #KoreanWar
