A Zk-383 in reality

ZK-383 is a submachine gun that was developed by the Koucký brothers in Czechoslovakia, with production starting in 1938. The production of the ZK-383 continued at Brno arms factory even during the German occupation during World War II. Most of the guns produced were supplied to the Waffen-SS. It continued to be produced in small numbers in the postwar period and production ended in 1948. The ZK-383 was slowly phased out by smaller and lighter submachine guns such as the Sa vz. 23 though Bulgaria continued using it until the 1970s.
