Daewoo Precision Industries K1

The Daewoo Precision Industries K1/K1A is a South Korean service rifle, the first modern firearm developed by Agency for Defense Development (ADD) and manufactured by Daewoo Precision Industries, and entered service in the Republic of Korea Armed Forces in 1981. Although the K1 uses .223 Remington, it is classified as a submachine gun by the South Korean military and the current manufacturer S&T Motiv, because the K1 was intended to replace the M3 submachine gun. Outside of South Korea the K1 is sometimes described as an assault rifle or as a carbine.
