    Now that's a good one As far as i know there are known 3 survived Mors pistols worldwide (one in Warsaw, Moscow and Budapest) and the total production till the start of war was ... 54

    Well, I understand that it's even rarer than that...Apparently 2 turned up in the Central Museum of the Armed Forces in Moscow in 1983-4. Out of a total of 36 plus 3 prototypes manufactured only these 2 are known to exist, 1 was presented to the Polish Armed Forces Museum in Warsaw in the mid 80's the other is still in Moscow. I'll have to look into the Budapest connection as I am unaware of that weapon.

    Regards, Ned.

    Edit: The Budapest connection is stated on Wikipedia and copied verbatim on many other forums. There is no information I can find of other sources for this 3rd weapon's existance, so on balance, I personally don't believe it exists.

    You know what, I looked it up... and I was mistaken... very mistaken, I thought it was some kind of finish Smg... and then I found out it was a Polish smg?
    Sorry
