A Weapon Forged in Simplicity and War

The M3 Grease Gun was developed in 1941 by George Hyde , a former German gunsmith who emigrated to the US, in response to the production complexity of the Thompson M1928A1. Designed to be economical, durable and effective, the M3 fired .45 ACP ammunition from a 30-round magazine , operated by mass recoil and open bolt , qualities that made it ideal for close-quarters and urban combat.

It participated in the greatest campaigns of the 20th century: World War II, Korea and Vietnam , becoming an emblem of the American infantry and a symbol of military pragmatism in times of war.
