SKM was a small industrial manufacturing company in Croatia that began making submachine guns in 1991 to equip Croatian fighters in the Homeland War. Their product was the M91 Crogar, which is a selective-fire, open bolt SMG chambered for 7.62mm Tokarev. It uses the magazine from the Yugoslav M56 SMG, along with its rotating bolt handle feature as a safety mechanism. The bolt and recoil spring are based on the MP40, and a folding stock inspired by the side-folding AKs made in Poland, Romania, and Hungary. Total production quantity is not known, but was not more than a few hundred at most. The build quality on these guns was quite good, and they were reportedly well liked by those who got them.  

A big thanks to the Croatian Police Museum (Muzej Policije) in Zagreb for giving me access to film this rare piece for you! Check them out at: https://muzej-policije.gov.hr

I find this to be a very interesting gun. Seems well-designed and quite finely machined, despite being both made during a war and by a company that doesn't seem like it had a lot of experience making firearms :) Also, gotta say, *really* dig the design of that heat shield, it looks really cool :D

prime candidates in that sit: sten and pps43 (what sure is the better one). why even think of any but that. looks like that crogar is made quiet well. beside the odd looking wood that seems very good quality.
