Design details

The Scorpion Evo 3 is a blowback operated carbine evolved from a Slovak prototype submachine gun developed by Laugo.[1][2]

Chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum, the Scorpion EVO 3 is mostly polymer, making it a lightweight, compact submachine gun designed to be easily maneuvered in confined spaces.

The A1 variant features a standard left-side non-reciprocating charging handle, although it is ambidextrous and can be switched from side-to-side. It also has an ambidextrous select fire switch, giving the operator the choice of "safe", semi-automatic, three-round burst, or fully automatic fire, while the S1's switch only features "safe" and semi-automatic fire.

The standard version comes equipped with a folding, adjustable and fully removable stock for transport. The handguard is lined with multiple Picatinny rails for the addition of attachments such as grips, sights, flashlights, and lasers.[3]

The handguard on the American semi-automatic offering features M-LOK attachment points, with a single Picatinny rail on top.[4]
