Comparing the M1 Garand to the M1 Carbine is ridiculous. One was NOT the descendant of the other. The M1 Carbine was an independent design directive to replace the pistol as the primary support weapon for secondary units or vehicle drivers.
It'd sort of be like putting the Thompson, the Reising, and the M3 on the same page, because they're all American and in .45 ACP. From the bit of research I did, the PPD is based on the the MP28, and the PPSh and the PPS were designed by different guys. It's true, one is more simplified than the other, but not necessarily based on one another. According to the Modern Firearms page, the 35 round mags from the PPSh and the PPS aren't even compatible with one another.
