Excellent condition SW 76. Originally developed in the late 1960s, the S&W Model 76 was designed to fill the niche of a lightweight and compact 9mm SMG after the American special forces community was cut off from sources of the Carl Gustaf M45 "Swedish K" SMG; the Swedish government, neutral in the Vietnam War, was uncomfortable with their exports being used in the conflict. "FULL"/"SEMI"/"SAFE" selector switch, perforated heat shield, checkered pistol grip and a side folding buttstock with rubberized covering.
