The '''Steyr-Solothurn S1-100''', better known under its Austrian military designation, '''MP 34''' (''Maschinenpistole 34'', literally "Machine Pistol 34"), is a Swiss-Austrian submachine gun produced by Steyr-Solothurn A.G.  The S1-100 was based on the Rheinmetall MP 19, an experimental German submachine gun design developed by Louis Stange. Unlike other contemporary submachine gun designs, such as the [[Haenel MP 28/II|MP 28]], the S1-100's recoil spring was housed in the buttstock, and acted against a long rod attached to the rear of the bolt. The receiver was also unusual for the period, as it was built with a hinged cover that could be lifted open to expose the bolt without having to remove it. Typically, the S1-100 featured a proprietary magazine charger built onto the top face of the magwell, although this was not present on examples made in certain non-standard calibers. Made to a generally excellent standard, the S1-100 is often regarded as one of the best submachine guns from the interwar period, earning it the sobriquet "Rolls Royce of submachine guns".
 
The S1-100 was widely offered for export in many different calibers. In 1930, the Austrian police purchased the S1-100 in 9x25mm Mauser as the "MP 30". Four years later, the Austrian army adopted the S1-100 as the "MP 34", chambered in 9x23mm Steyr. Japan adopted the S1-100 in 7.63x25mm Mauser as the "Type Su" (for "Steyr"), and Portugal adopted it in 7.65x22mm Parabellum as the "m/935". A small number of South American contract guns were made in .45 ACP. When Germany annexed Austria in 1938, Steyr rebarreled many existing S1-100s into 9x19mm Parabellum, which were issued by the Germans as the MP 34(ö) (''"ö" for "österreichisch"'', "Austrian"). Some of these 9x19mm guns were also exported for a second Portuguese contract in 1942.

The Steyr-Solothurn S1-100, better known under its Austrian military designation, MP 34 (Maschinenpistole 34, literally "Machine Pistol 34"), is a Swiss-Austrian submachine gun produced by Steyr-Solothurn A.G. The S1-100 was based on the Rheinmetall MP 19, an experimental German submachine gun design developed by Louis Stange. Unlike other contemporary submachine gun designs, such as the MP 28, the S1-100's recoil spring was housed in the buttstock, and acted against a long rod attached to the rear of the bolt. The receiver was also unusual for the period, as it was built with a hinged cover that could be lifted open to expose the bolt without having to remove it. Typically, the S1-100 featured a proprietary magazine charger built onto the top face of the magwell, although this was not present on examples made in certain non-standard calibers. Made to a generally excellent standard, the S1-100 is often regarded as one of the best submachine guns from the interwar period, earning it the sobriquet "Rolls Royce of submachine guns".

The S1-100 was widely offered for export in many different calibers. In 1930, the Austrian police purchased the S1-100 in 9x25mm Mauser as the "MP 30". Four years later, the Austrian army adopted the S1-100 as the "MP 34", chambered in 9x23mm Steyr. Japan adopted the S1-100 in 7.63x25mm Mauser as the "Type Su" (for "Steyr"), and Portugal adopted it in 7.65x22mm Parabellum as the "m/935". A small number of South American contract guns were made in .45 ACP. When Germany annexed Austria in 1938, Steyr rebarreled many existing S1-100s into 9x19mm Parabellum, which were issued by the Germans as the MP 34(ö) ("ö" for "österreichisch", "Austrian"). Some of these 9x19mm guns were also exported for a second Portuguese contract in 1942.
