This video examines the Yugoslav M49/57 submachine gun, a firearm heavily inspired by the Soviet PPSh-41 but featuring a distinct milled construction and internal mechanisms more akin to the Beretta 38 family. The description highlights similarities in controls like the fire selector and magazine release, while noting differences in safety mechanisms and disassembly. The M49/57 was offered in 7.62mm Tokarev and 9mm Parabellum for export but saw limited documented sales, eventually being succeeded in Yugoslav service by the M56 SMG. The video thanks Marstar for providing the M49/57 for examination.
