 Beretta Model 1938A Sub-Machine Gun   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The first model was fully stocked, similar to the Model 1918, but had a folding bayonet of special design and a cooling jacket wih long slots surrounding the barrel.
The Model 38/42 was a move to further simplify production of the Model 1938A using metal stampings for the body and magazine housing, discarding the barrel jacket, and reverting the compensator to a two slot model.
The Model 38/44 was simply the 38/42 with the smooth barrel, but with a slight change in the design of the bolt and return spring that ended up with the receiver end cap being plain whereas the 38/42 had a raised center on the cap to act as an anchor for the return spring.

 Colt .45 Automatic Pistol
On the morning of 8 October 1918, elements of the 328th Infantry, 82nd Division, United States Army, were pinned down by German machine-gun fire.
Models were field tested by active-duty soldiers, and extensive laboratory tests were made.
