Okay,

Assault Rifles: Volksarmee. Yes the G3 has the larger round and muzzle velocity, but the larger the round the more recoil you are going to experience. The AKM is lighter and therefore allows for more manouverability in the field.

SMGs: Volksarmee. The PPSh is a legend in terms of rate of fire, magazine size and range. Even if it is using its smaller 35 round box, the PPSh still has the ROF to keep the West Germns pinned down. Yes the MP5 is lighter, but the greater stopping power of the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round is going to destroy the famous MP5 in this match.

MGs: Draw. TBA
