Flobert submachine gun vz. 61 Škorpión, cal. 6 mm II.class
Pressure test, certificate. Free sales over 18 years of age. It has tests and a certificate of new unit weapon authentication, confirming change of the weapon type from its original version to a flobert weapon which bears the branding Flobert 7.5 J on the metal part. Originally a semiautomatic, but after its adjustment to the flobert version does not have a self-loading function.
Original version:
After the introduction of the vz. 58 submachine gun into the armament, the CSLA starts phasing out the vz. 24/26 submachine guns. This is understandable since the new weapon was much more powerful. However, the new vz. 58 model did not fit everybody. The cause were the dimensions of the new weapon, which prevented or greatly made it difficult to use in certain types of troops, particularly the crews of tanks and other vehicles, but also paratroopers. Also the operating staff of some heavy weapons, commo boys, snipers and commanders demanded a side weapon which with its dimensions would not exceed the dimensions of a gun, but maintain the ability of a submachine gun. Based on these requirements the 61 model was created. The chief designer of the Scorpion was Ing. Miroslav Rybár. He designed the weapon concept, which would be similar to a gun rather than a submachine gun, and rejected the way of constructing the pistol allowing fire in burst (eg. the Soviet APS). Another characteristic feature of the Scorpion is the magazine placement from the bottom side before the pistol grip. Furthermore, the vz. 61 model has a folding armrest, like other, bigger submachine guns.
Adjustment System to a flobert version:
A barrel in caliber 6 mm (.22), which is secured against removal by a permanent joint - weld, is fixed into the original barrel. A flobert cartridge (6 mm F ME/.22 F) is inserted into the reduction in the shape of the original caliber cartridge case, behind the flobert cartridge a transducer of the central inflammation to the edge one is inserted. The trigger and firing mechanism is original, unaltered. The weapon, after its adjustment to the flobert, is a single-shot. A reduction with a flobert cartridge (6 mm F ME/.22 F) is inserted piece by piece straight into the barrel (the chamber).
The gun is labeled C.I.P. and there are Slovak test marks stamped on it.
