The SIG KE-7 Light Machine Gun, designed by Pal Kiraly and Gotthard End, showcases intricate Swiss engineering with a unique progressive trigger for semi-auto and full-auto fire. Primarily chambered in 8mm Mauser for contracts with China and Ethiopia, it features an open-bolt operation and a sophisticated short-recoil system with an accelerator lever. While marketed with a quick-change barrel, its field stripping is more involved than typical mid-combat replacements.
The Hungarian 43M submachine gun, designed by Pál Király, is a powerful WWII-era SMG chambered in 9x25mm Mauser Export. Its lever-delayed blowback system was necessary to handle the potent cartridge, distinguishing it from simpler blowback designs. The 43M evolved from the earlier 39M, featuring a more compact design with a folding stock and magazine for improved portability.
