The PPS-43 (Pistolet-Pulemyot Sudayeva) was a Soviet World War II-era compact submachine gun designed by Alexey Sudayev. Its folding-stock configuration was developed to reduce the weapon’s overall size for use by vehicle crews and other personnel requiring a compact arm. A historical parts-kit configuration may be encountered with a receiver section, barrel, folding-stock components, magazines, sling, and carrying equipment.
