History

Designed and built by the Nambu Arms Manufacturing Company, the Type 100 was a robust, if unremarkable, submachine gun that was first delivered to the Imperial Army in 1942. Japan was surprisingly late to introduce the submachine gun to its armed forces.

The Type 100 was a well made gun, but the 8x22mm Nambu round was underpowered, roughly the equivalent to the .380 ACP. Atypically for a submachine gun but typical of Japanese small arms, a bayonet lug was fixed under the barrel.

Despite its shortcomings and complexities, the Type 100 had a high quality chrome plated barrel to aid cleaning and reduce wear. Some models also featured a bipod or a complicated muzzle brake.

Singleplayer/Co-Op

The Type 100 is used by the Japanese in the missions, and can often be picked up.

The Type 100 is a well rounded gun, more of a run and gun because of its mobility and high rate of fire, medium recoil and a 30 round magazine.

It has a high rate of fire and medium recoil, but is difficult for long range shooting.
