They had a bent-barrel version of the M3 as well, tho I’ve never seen one outside of WW2-era fotos. I always wondered what you were supposed to do if the corner went the other way..

Hold the gun upside down?
It makes me think of the scene from Spaceballs where they are rescuing the princess and Barf uses a pipe to redirect shots from a laser gun

Might be useful to get infantry off of your armored vehicle.

I’ve always heard that something like this was used in WW2 in street-to-street fighting. You’d have to replace the attachment after a few minutes of shooting though.
But yes…stupid invention.

The Germans had their version in WW2 also. They used soft lead bullets, which meant that it really didn’t matter that you couldn’t see what you were shooting at, because the bullet fragmented before it even left the barrel and shot more like a small shotgun.
