CHICOM SUB MACHINE GUNS
 

The Peoples republic of China supplied its communist striving neighbours with loads of weapons after the peoples revolution in 1949. Amongst the weapons were loads of sub machine guns. China had lots of weapons it had been given by the allies, a considerable amount of M3 Grease guns. It also had Russian made sub machine guns of the Type PPS-41 “Spagin” and PPS-43 “Sudajev”, under the Chinese names of Type 50 and Type 43. There were two different kinds of magazines, the drum magazine and the more reliable 35 rounds magazine.
