Technically correct, but I’ve never understood how an SMG got to be designated as a carbine.
R. S., this was simply British nomenclature. It is a carbine (because it is shoulder fired and has a short barrel), it goes rock and roll, hence “machine”, hence “machine carbine”.

I’ve always understood the derivation of carbine to be from the shorter longarms developed for cavalry from infantry weapons, and assumed it would be applied to WWII weapons in the same way. Such as the Lee Enfield .303 jungle carbine.
Very Good TG.
