Great article! I really like reading these history articles like this. The photos and info were really good. I was hoping to see something about the Beretta SMGs of the war, but you don't really hear that much about them....

Great article Mike, a lot of great information.

Sigh.
Just makes me want a M3 more & more...

A papashaw would be fun, too...but I think I’d rather have the Finnish version-the Suomi—in 9mm...

The Thompson is a Cadillac, the M3 is a Chevette, and the Sten is a turd. Where is the MAB 38A?

Finnish Suomi is one of my favorite guns! I worked for a NFA dealer and there was a November SMG pin shoot each year where they gave away turkeys. The drum mags for the Suomi were like cheating. Got a bird 4 years in a row! If I had to pick just one SMG it would be the Swedish K gun which came along at the end of WWII.
