...Simple sub-machine guns are even easier.

Indeed they are. Back in the '70s I had the opportunity to examine a demilled Sten parts kit at a gun show. All the parts could be made with simple tools and patience. The most difficult part would be to rifle the barrel if you did not want a smoothebore.

However, even that can be accomplished using electrochemical etching techniques.

If you ever get a chance, take a look at an M-3, “Grease Gum”, .45 cal full auto, 2 moving parts and a couple of springs. Nifty.
