Date[edit]

This article states that the gun was designed in 1940. The article states the M3 greasegun influenced the design, but the M3 was designed in 1942. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.0.144.113 (talk) 04:23, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Various sources list the date of the conceptual prototype of the FBP as either 1940, or 1948 (depending upon source). But what is clear is that the FBP m/948 did not go into production in its final form until 1948. By that time, the arsenal designers had examined both the MP40 and U.S. M3 submachine guns, and incorporated features from both designs into their own version.Dellant (talk) 20:53, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proper name of the weapon[edit]

Despite Hogg's entry in Military Small Arms of the 20th Century the submachine gun is named FBP m/48 not m/948, which can be clearly seen on this page http://www.deactivated-guns.co.uk/deactivated-guns/modern-deactivated-guns/deactivated-old-spec-fbp-m/48-smg/prod_1658.html (second picture). — Preceding unsigned comment added by KitFistoPL (talk • contribs) 13:43, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on FBP submachine gun. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
