The Sa 23 (Czech: Samopal 23) series of submachine guns began just after World War II, when Czech arms designer Vaclav Holek developed a submachine gun patterned after the various conventional blowback designs of the time (the MP40, Sten, etc.), but with some innovative updates. The resultant weapon was the first submachine gun in full production to have the magazine well in the pistol grip, and a wrap around bolt.

The development of this SMG was started in 1947 at the Česká Zbrojovka Strakonice arms factory, as the CZ-447. The final version of the SMG was adopted by the Czechoslovak army in August 1948 under the designation "9 mm samopal vz. 48a" (with fixed wooden buttstock) and "9 mm samopal vz. 48b" (with folding buttstock). Serial production was started in 1949 at the Česká Zbrojovka enterprise - Uhersky Brod. In the spring of 1950, the Czechoslovak army changed the designation of these SMGs: Sa vz. 48a became Sa 23, and Sa vz. 48b became Sa 25. Unlike other Czechoslovakian submachine guns, these numeral designations are typically written without the "vzor" (model of), as their numeral designations are not their years of introductions.

The original guns were chambered in 9mm Parabellum, making it popular for export to western or non-aligned nations, but the Soviet Union pressured Czechoslovakia to adopt a standardized Warsaw Pact caliber, so the gun was modified to fire the 7.62x25mm Tokarev round. The 7.62x25mm versions are identifiable due to the obvious forward slant of the pistol grip and magazine to accommodate the different shape of the ammunition. The 9mm versions - as well as some of the surplus 7.62x25mm ones - were sold worldwide. Most of the 9mm guns ended up in the hands of countries like Chile, Lebanon and South Africa, while the 7.62x25mm versions went to Soviet client states like Cuba, Cambodia, and Libya. The original Czech production ran from 1949 to 1968.

The four variants of the Czech production are:

Sa 23: 9x19mm Parabellum, fixed wooden stock.
Sa 25: 9x19mm Parabellum, side-folding wire stock.
Sa 24: 7.62x25mm Tokarev, fixed wooden stock.
Sa 26: 7.62x25mm Tokarev, side-folding wire stock.

A semi-automatic version of the Sa 25 - the Sanna 77 - was produced in sanctions-embargoed Rhodesia in the 1970s, in line with other forays into local arms, such as the Rhogun, Cobra Carbine, and the Northwood R-76 SMG/R-77 machine carbine. They were mainly marketed as high-capacity "land defence pistols" for use by isolated white farmers against indigenous guerrilas. Some sources claim that the Sanna 77 was nicknamed the "Rhuzi," due to its cosmetic similarity to the Uzi, others claim the same for the Rhogun and the Cobra. Another semi-automatic version - the Kommando LDP - later appeared in South Africa.

Sanna 77

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Sanna 77 - 9x19mm

A 9mm semi-automatic side-folding wire-stocked version, dating from 1977 to 1980. Some sources suggest that some or all Sanna-77s were actually refurbished surplus Sa 25s, with "production" starting in Rhodesia, then moving to South Africa. Some were also sanitized Sa 25s in military configuration.

Kommando LDP

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Kommando-LDP "Rhuzi" - 9x19mm

Another 9mm semi-automatic version, produced in South Africa. This differed from most previous variants in having a large grey plastic pistol-grip that extended almost to the muzzle, and a wire stock that folded underneath the weapon, rather than to the side, the butt being inverted so it could still be used as a fore-grip. Some sources claim that "LDP" refers to refers to the names of the manufacturer and designer - Lacoste Engineering and a Mr Pointer respectively - rather than "land defence pistol," as per previously, and that it was also known as the "Lacoste LDP." Although sold as semi-automatic, the Kommando-LDP has a reputation for inadvertent full-auto fire, and is reputedly easily convertible to that mode permanently.

-Just after World War II, Czech arms designer Vaclav Holek developed an indigenous submachine gun patterned after the various blowback conventional designs of the time (the MP40, the Sten, etc.)  but with some innovative updates.  The Sa.23 was the first Submachine gun in full production to have the magazine well in the pistol grip and a wrap around bolt, despite the fact that the British MCEM was the first prototype to adopt these features.  The Sa.23 was the 9mm full stock version, the Sa.24 was the folding stock 9mm version.  But eventually the Soviet Union pressured Czechoslovakia to adopt an 'approved' Warsaw Pact caliber, so the submachine gun was modified to fire the 7.65x25mm Tokarev round.  The later 7.65x25mm versions were named the Sa.25 (full stock) and Sa.26 (folding stock).  The later 7.65x25mm TT versions are identifiable due to the obvious forward slant of the pistol grip and magazine to accommodate the shape of the new ammunition.  The older 9mm versions (and some of the surplus 7.65x25mm ones as well) were sold world wide, with most of the 9mm guns ending up in the hands of countries like Chile, Lebanon and South Africa.  Most of the 7.62x25mm versions went to Soviet client states like Cuba, Cambodia, and Libya.  South Africa tried to market a '''semi auto only version''' of the Sa.24 (9mm Folding stock) called the '''Sanna-77''', but it was a commercial failure (and the chances of it appearing in a film is slim to none).

+[[File:KOMMANDO-LDP RHUZI.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Kommando-LDP "Rhuzi" - 9x19mm]]
+Another 9mm semi-automatic version, produced in South Africa. This differed from most previous variants in having a large grey plastic pistol-grip that extended almost to the muzzle, and a wire stock that folded underneath the weapon, rather than to the side, the butt being inverted so it could still be used as a fore-grip. Some sources claim that "LDP" refers to refers to the names of the manufacturer and designer - Lacoste Engineering and a Mr Pointer respectively - rather than "land defence pistol," as per previously, and that it was also known as the "Lacoste LDP." Although sold as semi-automatic, the Kommando-LDP has a reputation for inadvertent full-auto fire, and is reputedly easily convertible to that mode permanently.
