The Cobra carbine is a 9mm folding-stocked semi-automatic weapon of Rhodesian origin manufactured during the Rhodesian Bush War era. The weapon looks like a mix of the Ingram MAC-11's receiver; the Uzi's pistol grip, forend, and folding stock; and a shortened version of the L2 Sterling Machine Carbine's shrouded barrel cooling jacket. It was intended as a self-defense for white Rhodesian farmers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.classicarms.co.za/default.php?ipkProductID=885&sid=37ipkCat=37 )〕 After some delays Stellyte Arms Company started the manufacture of the carbines in 1977, subcontractors included Livingston Mint, Matthews Manufacturing and Bulawayo Armoury. After a month Stellyte went into liquidation, the production was then taken over by the Bulawayo Armoury, which continued to produce the carbines until 1979. After the production ended Slektarev Engineering (later known as Crusader Engineering) bought all of remaining parts. Around 2,500 of the carbines were produced.〔 The weapon was presented to public in April 1977 during Trade Fair Rhodesia exhibition at Bulawayo Armoury stand. There was also a selective-fire model developed for military, capable of firing at 450–500 rpm. ==See also== *Northwood R-76 *Sanna 77 *Kommando LDP 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cobra submachine gun」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
