- Should this be reflected in the first line and type section on the table? It currently states it's an assault rifle and carbine. Alexha.dct (talk) 00:32, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- What defines a submachine gun is the cartridge. A submachine gun that fires assault rifle rounds cannot be a submachine gun - it's a carbine (because a submachine gun is defined by being an automatic gun that fires pistol rounds - if it fires intermediate rounds, it is an assault rifle, if full power, then a battle rifle). The K1 is more comparable to the CAR-15 carbine or the AK-74U, both of which are assault carbines that are also used in the same role as a submachine gun, but those are not considered such. You can use a sword in the same role as a spear, but that will not make a sword a spear. Edward hahm (talk) 08:40, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
