Folding 9mm SMG weapons demonstration
This is a Universal Takedown Gun from the French firearms manufacture Hotchkiss. This model was designed fold into a small unit that can easily fit into a backpack or rucksack and used in the 1950's. It was designed to replace the MAT-49 and for French paratroopers but only saw limited service. It's chambered in 9mm and we have in our inventory and working on restoring another unit. It fires from a closed bolt and is select-fire. Our Range Safety Officer demonstrates this weapon in both semi and full-auto here at Battlefield Vegas.
