Calico M100
The Calico M100 is a .22 LR rifle that usually comes with a 100 round .22 LR helical tubular magazine and has a collapsible stock. It first came out in the 1980s and was probably one of the most unusual and futuristic looking firearms of its time.
This is a smaller version of the M-100 .22 LR Pistol. It is frequently called the M-100P, which was the older model this replaced, Calico no longer sells the M-100P. The bolt was changed to make it slightly lighter and the feed lip changed in the magazine. The parts are mostly interchangeable, the only modification for older 100P would be that you'd need to have minor modifications to the barrel to use the current magazine design.
The Calico M951 is a select fire version of the nearly identical M900 Semi Auto Carbine, except the 951 has a special compensator (much like a mini Cutts Compensator) that is larger than the compensator for the M900.
The Calico M950 is the pistol version of the 9x19mm carbine. It is also available in a full auto version, the M950A, however, movie armorers have converted M950 semi-automatic pistols to emulate the M950A in films, thus contributing to the confusing array of variants appearing in films that fire fully automatic. The M950A from the factory has a pistol foregrip to aid in barrel climb during full auto fire. In some films like I Come In Peace, the gun is a converted M950 (with an accelerated rate of fire) but the foregrip was not installed since blanks don't create the muzzle climb that live rounds do. Neither the M950 nor the M950A have a retractable stock, nor can one be installed on that type of receiver, so if you see a retractable stock, it is not one of these models.

Calico M960A
The Calico M960A is the pistol length submachine gun with retractable stock and foregrip. Most of the time the 50 round helical magazine is installed. Interestingly enough, when the 100 round helical magazine is installed, it extends beyond the telescoping stock when retracted all the way. It is the base weapon for the Westinghouse M95A1 Phased Plasma Rifle weapons used in the Terminator series.
