The Onorati SMG is a two-barrel Italian prototype submachine gun. [1] A pistol calibre rifle variant also existed. [2]
The weapon was designed by Umberto Onorati; very little other information about the weapon is available. As no pictures of the weapon exist, it can be assumed that the weapon never advanced past prototype stages. The Onorati used a dual-bolt system and fed from two 20-round detachable box magazines inserted into the weapon.
The standard SMG with a wood stock; magazines are inserted into the weapon and stored under the handguard.
A machine pistol variant of the same weapon, which has a normal pistol grip instead of a stock acting as a grip.

A submachine gun (SMG) is a magazine-fed automatic carbine designed to fire handgun cartridges. The term "submachine gun" was coined by John T. Thompson, the inventor of the Thompson submachine gun, to describe its design concept as an automatic firearm with notably less firepower than a machine gun. As a machine gun must fire rifle cartridges to be classified as such, submachine guns are not considered machine guns.
