The Škorpion vz. 61 is a very recognizable submachine gun that garnered a following due to its representation in video games and movies. First designed in 1959, this Czechoslovak firearm is also available in semiautomatic versions. However, the semiautomatic variants can be a bit hard to find, and unless you are capable of milling your own lower receiver for one, many fans will have a difficult time getting their hands on a working Škorpion.
That is, unless you know how to work a 3D printer. The enthusiasts in this video used a demilled receiver to design their blueprint for this Škorpion’s receiver, and it seems to work fine. With a coat of black paint, it’s hard to even notice that the receiver is actually plastic.

Ping Worthy Dear Leader Null and Void?
So the obvious question - are kits available? With cut receivers, presumably?
Anybody working on an MG34 receiver?
Yep. MGS still has 'em listed.

Oh, Lordy! You ever seen the machine tool setup used by the Czechs to crank out the DOT MG34 receivers? It took a two-story building....
Not to my knowledge. Though something else kind of interesting is afoot....
A 1928 Thompson upper.Nice.
