Carlo (submachine gun)
The Carlo (Arabic: كارلو) (also referred to as Carl Gustav) is an improvised submachine gun manufactured by small workshops in the Palestinian Territories. The design has been inspired by the Swedish Carl Gustav m/45 and its Egyptian Port Said variant, however the similarity is often only passing. The Carlo's homemade nature makes it affordable on the black market, where it is purchased not only by Palestinian terrorists targeting Israelis, but also by Arab-Israeli gangs. The Carlo is cheap and requires little skill or equipment to manufacture, but it's inaccurate and prone to jamming and misfire. The weapon is named after the Carl Gustaf m/45.
