This Old Gun: SOLA Super Submachine Gun

The Mini Uzi offers a more compact and manageable experience compared to the original Uzi, retaining its reliable blowback operation and telescoping bolt. Key features include tool-less disassembly, iron sights, a top charging handle, and compatibility with standard Uzi magazines. Its angled barrel compensator and practical folding stock enhance control and handling, making it a favored 9mm platform for many.

The Beretta PM12 is highlighted as an underrated 20th-century submachine gun, praised for its controllability due to a slow cyclic rate (550 RPM) and a telescoping bolt design that allows for a compact form factor. Despite its historical service in numerous countries and its legendary reliability, it remains less recognized than contemporaries like the Uzi and MP5, partly due to its limited availability to US collectors. The PM12's design evolved from the M1938, incorporating stamped steel for faster, cheaper production and featuring a triple safety system.

The CBJ-MS is a modernized 9mm submachine gun based on the Swedish K, designed as a compact PDW-style platform. It features a unique progressive trigger for semi and full-auto fire without a selector, a grip safety, and a vertical foregrip that stores a spare magazine. The muzzle is compatible with standard M16 bipods for added stability.

The GForce Arms Jawbone is presented as a highly affordable American-made AR-9 platform firearm, retailing between $350-$400. It features a side-charging upper, a monolithic grip with integrated magazine storage, and can be enhanced with aftermarket parts like an SB Tactical brace and a Rise Armament trigger. The reviewer found it reliable with zero jams during testing and described it as accurate and enjoyable to shoot.

The Walther MPK and MPL are post-WWII submachine guns developed in the late 1950s and produced from 1963, competing with the Uzi and MP5. They feature a simple stamped sheet metal construction, ambidextrous controls, and a manageable 550 RPM rate of fire. While robust and portable, their sights are considered a weak point by the reviewer.

This review delves into the Walther MPK submachine gun, a competitor to the Uzi and MP5. Key features include an open bolt design, a non-reciprocating charging handle with a manual forward assist, and a secondary safety sear catch to prevent accidental discharges. The MPK offered selector options for full-auto and, in some variants, semi-automatic fire.
