"Your statement provokes the idea that Germamy in 1933 was filled with militias, which is not true. And your figure for the SA is way off too. The number only grew vastly after the Nazi party having won the elections and come to power, and the times of street-fighting were over."
A quick Google search, "How many nazi brown shirt members were there in 1933?", brings this up, from "Encyclopedia Britannica",
"Under Röhm SA membership, swelled from the ranks of the
Great Depression’s unemployed, grew to 400,000 by 1932 and to perhaps 2,000,000—20 times the size of the regular army—by the time that Hitler came to power in 1933.."
There were other fractions as well, but the Communist Party represented to the NAZis, the #1 domestic enemy that had to be overcome, and Hitler, et al, did no let their response gather moss.
All of this history is well reCORDED, and you have but look to find any aspect of that period.
I wonder if Leica miniature film cameras were ever referred to or advertised as a 'cord'?
