The Italians were the first to field a traditional submachine gun design, the Beretta 1918, in 1918. The design was a follow on from the earlier Villar Perosa, which is often regarded as the first submachinegun. The Villar Perosa was somewhat odd, and had sort of a heavy double automatic pistol configuration, with two 25 round box magazines feeding each barrel at 300 RPM for each barrel. It was originally intended as a aircraft weapon, but saw some limited use on the ground; it also aided development of the next Italian SMG. The Beretta 1918 came next, beating the Bergman MP18 by a couple of months to introduction in 1918. It had a traditional wooden stock, a 25 round box magazine, and 900 RPM.
