A .pdf (Adobe Acrobat) showing another design for a 9mm Machine Pistol.
Readers of Expedient Homemade Firearms Volume I and II may find
the following 9mm Machine Pistol design of interest.
The firearm is constructed using similar materials and techniques as those
illustrated in my previous books. The following construction drawings will
be familiar to readers already conversant with my previous designs. The
pistol uses the same design magazine shown in Volume I, though I have
included the magazine base plate spring design, shown in Volume II, as a
design improvement.
I have designed the bolt to be a simple unit easily machined using a lathe,
rather than assembling the bolt from the selection of hardware products
shown in Volume I and II.
In short, I have designed the machine pistol with the slightly more
advanced home-gunsmith in mind and to enable relatively simple home
workshop construction.
