Of all modern firearms out there, this is probably the one that is tempting me the most at the moment.

So what are we looking at here at Photo Of The Day?

It’s the new LWRCI SMG-45. I would, of course, SBR mine, and put a Trijicon MRO on it.

Below: SMG in caliber 45. Black hardware and what almost looks like bronzed metal.

It would be pretty cool, but financially stupid, to run this SMG for Pistol Carbine Competition. But if I could I would!

The good news is that LWRCI have confirmed that they are developing a 9×19 mm version as well.
