    ROMANIAN 9MM ORITA M1941 SMG - Small Arms Review

Using the 24/25 round magazine with say a 440 rpm could knock this down to br1/2?. I assume the Orita is BR2 and this would make a good low-level para squad. BR3 para squads are fun but lets spread the fun/cancer to low levels. The folding orita fits the standard para trooper archetype. perhaps a tt/event squad could flush it out now that paras are less op.

BR2 German already have a prem para squard

The orita we have in the game now is br 2. Folding stock orita would probably have same br since folding stock m1 carbine is same br as normal carbine.

I still think orita deserves br 1 since it is not that great compared to other br 2 smgs

Orița with folding stock is post war(A variant of m41/48) , just give the squad changeable MP-40s (It would be historicaly accurate since by 1944 the 2 parachute regiment of the unit were predominantly armed with MP40s)
