This video provides an in-depth look at the Romanian Orita Model 1941/48 submachine gun. It details the weapon's design by Captain Marin Orita, its service with Romanian forces in late World War II, and the significant upgrades implemented in the 1948 version, including the addition of a grip safety for drop-safety and a strengthened metal wrist. The video highlights that most 1941 models were converted to the 1948 standard and that the Orita remained in service for decades. Thanks are extended to the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History in Brussels for providing access to this rare example.
