The Type 100 was the only submachine gun mass-produced by Japan during World War II, chambered in the 8x22mm Nambu pistol cartridge. It featured a distinctive design with a left-side magazine well and a slightly downward-angled stock. The late-model variant had a folding stock and simplified construction for paratrooper use.
