Skorpion vz.61

The Samopal Skorpion vz.61 is a Czechoslovakian submachine gun that fires the relatively low-powered (but still deadly) 7.65mm (.32ACP) round. It was developed in the 1960s by Česká Zbrojovka, the leading arms manufacturer in that country. Although it was developed for use with security forces, the submachine gun was also accepted into service with the Czechoslovak Army, as a personal sidearm for lower-ranking army staff, vehicle drivers, armored vehicle personnel and special forces. Though it sports a small magazine, the accuracy is excellent, with minimal barrel climb.
