The Japanese Type 100 SMG, developed late in WWII, was a rare firearm chambered in 8mm Nambu. It featured an open-bolt, blowback action and came in standard and paratrooper variants, the latter with a folding stock. Notable features included a bipod, chrome-lined barrel, and bayonet lug, though its 30-round magazine was prone to snagging. The 1944 model saw simplification and a higher rate of fire.
