"And the patents were copied, not just "because I think it is a look-a-like" Pudeo

"There are some similarities between the KP/-31 and PPSh -41 such as magazine capacity, cyclic rate of fire and the wooden buttstock. The Finnish gun is, however, a first generation submachine gun while the PPSh is a typical second generation submachine gun: Mass-produced for a massive army, and thus possessing neither quickly detachable barrel nor some other luxuries such as versatility with very slight - if any - alteration of the receiver mechanism." [1]

PPSh-41 is not copy of Suomi, which is easy to notice with little researche.

PPD 34 [2] is probably the gun which you are thinking.

And why did you revert also all the typos...? Please correct those. --81.197.218.62 18:16, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Nevermind, I reverted.--81.197.218.62 19:02, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] M-31?

Where does the name "M-31" for this article come from? In the article, the gun is consistently called "KP/-31". Which is correct? Redxiv 02:54, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

i think that m/31 means malli/31, in english it means model/31. suomi M/31 KP/-31 are official "names" for Suomi KP M/31 --193.229.159.15 20:47, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
