This specific firearm configuration refers to a variant of the Czech-made Scorpion Evo 3 A1 submachine gun, adapted for civilian ownership as a pistol. It features a 4.2-inch barrel, chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum. The “folding brace” designation indicates an arm brace attached to the rear of the receiver, designed to improve stability and control during firing. The “black” descriptor specifies the firearm’s finish.
This compact design offers a balance between portability and controllability, making it appealing for various applications, including home defense and recreational shooting. Its relatively low recoil and high magazine capacity contribute to its popularity. Developed from a military platform, the design benefits from modern engineering and manufacturing techniques, resulting in a reliable and robust firearm. The braced pistol configuration provides an alternative to traditional handguns and shorter-barreled carbines.
