A "Schmeisser" for the 21st Century?

Elsewhere a poster admired the appearance of a Schmeisser in an avatar.

Perhaps here we have its successor.

I think you can also wash your car with it.

Goes through those 15rd mags rather quickly, doesn't it? I'd say it was a bit more Tommy Gun, than Schmeiser, but a good find, none the less.

I think this might the Schmeisser in question.

I bought this when I was 16 yrs old (I'm 46 now) from a hobbie store in Nashua NH it was used then but in good shape.

The stock folds out and you can still pull the slide back, pull the trigger and it goes thunk as the slide hits home.
I had a lot of fun with this groing up let me tell ya.

Boy, that looks like it'd be hard to get used to aiming w/ the muzzle so far below the trigger. Wouldn't that also put the main recoil BENEATH your thumb, pushing the nose down on successive shots? (As opposed to a typical upward recoil?)

(I'm probably mangling the terms, here, I'm not a gun person myself. Love them, moved somewhere where they aren't a great idea - Southern Cali.)

Appearing in a sci-fi film coming soon I'd imagine

I haven't seen any critiques, but I think it places great faith in the red dot you see through night vision googles you need when you play with SMG's these days.

The scope and the barrel are so far apart that there are should be definite parallax problems if you are not at a particular distance from the target (basically the scope is looking along a line no where near the line of the barrel).

I think this might be an engineer's weapon like the MAC-10. Something that is theoretically neat.

We may have to get Quigley to do an assessment before I recommend Indygear buy a gross.
