This blowback-operated submachine gun was developed by Precision Liegoise SA, and was adopted by the Belgian Army in 1953. The design borrowed from both the German [[MP40]] and the American [[Grease Gun|M3 Grease Gun]].  It fires a standard 9x19mm round from an open bolt, and features a collapsible wire stock, compensated barrel, 32-round magazine, and a grip backstrap safety.  The trigger functionality is of interesting note: when the weapon has full-auto selected, a short trigger squeeze will fire one round, and a long squeeze will engage full-auto mode.
