In Pacific campaign, Japanese have “MP-28 (7.65mm)”, but in history they didn’t used it.
In history, they used SIG-Bergmann M1920 machine pistol and they call it “Bergman machine pistol” (ベ式自動拳銃).
It used 7.63mm ammunition which is same as S1-100 (both were used by navy) and it should have bayonet.
Japanese once used MP28，they came from the Dutch army and the British army in Southeast Asia.
Records from the Japanese occupation of Singapore in 1942
「シユマイセル」機関短銃＝MP28 II（7.63mm）
Thanks, I didn’t know army used Schmeisser MP28 instead of naval landing party’s Bergman M1920.
However, 3D model of this gun (especially barrel), it seems Bergman M1920. How do you think about it? I’m not expert so I hope I can get your seeing.
The main Bergman submachine gun used by the IJA is still the SIG1920 （Some documents refer to it as 一九一八年式「ベルグマン」自動短銃 ）There are not many MP28s。and Most of these submachine guns of the IJA came from the Chinese army
Ah, I understand. Thank you very much!
So, imported one is only IJN’s Bergmann M1920 and army used captured various guns.
If Chinese MP28 is allowed, I hope to see Chinese Thompson, too. As far as I remember, IJA used it at Manchuria etc.
