The design was generally modelled after the German ERMA EMP-35. Common feature of both was a wooden butt and forward pistol grip, most noticeable difference was magazine sticking downwards in Mors instead of to the left side. The SMG was to be issued to some of the infantry units, as well as to tank crews and boarding parties of the Polish Navy and armoured trains. Later the idea of equipping tank crews was abandoned due to size. After extensive tests the construction proved to be reliable and durable. The first series was ordered in March 1939 and additional purchases was planned. However, until September 1939 the Fabryka Karabinów in Warsaw produced only 39 pieces, 3 of them being prototypes. After the start of hostilities, all were issued to one infantry battalion and were used with success during the battle for Warsaw.
Only 2 or 3 units survived: one in the Polish Army Museum in Warsaw (acquired from the Soviet Union in late 1980s), one in Russia and one probably in Budapest in museum.
