This video explores the rare Croatian Alar SMG, a student-made submachine gun designed by Stipe Alar in 1971. Initially an illegal build, the design gained traction during the Croatian Homeland War when students at the mechanical trade school in Sisak began manufacturing them. The Alar features a simple trigger, a PPSh-style bolt, a basic underfolding stock, and modified MP40 magazines in 9mm Parabellum. Barrels were sourced from Steyr, smuggled from Austria disguised as car roof rack material. The video showcases three examples: the prototype, an early production model, and a standard variant, thanks to access provided by the Sisak Municipal Museum.
