	'''TZ-45''' is an Italian submachine gun designed by Aldo Zorzoli and produced by Società Anonima Meccanica Torinese (SAMT). Originally developed in 1943 as a cheaper and more compact alternative to the [[Beretta Model 38]], the TZ-45 was taken into service with the Italian Social Republic in late 1944. It was one of the first submachine guns to feature a grip safety, which was located on the forward magazine housing; this would lock the bolt in place unless pressed down, rendering the gun unable to fire without one hand on the magwell. An estimated 6,000 guns were assembled in the late stages of the war in Italy, before the SAMT factory was captured by partisans in April 1945. After the war, the gun was revived in a slightly improved form as the '''AZ-49''' (or '''AZ-50'''), and was adopted by Burma under the designation '''BA-52''', but otherwise saw no export sales.
