			==Distinctions==
			There is discussion among firearm experts/enthusiasts as to whether the terms should be used interchangeably or not. Many insist that 'machine pistol' only refers to compact, pistol-sized variants, while 'submachine gun' anything that is larger. This is made worse by the confusing use of the terms even among manufacturers.<br/>
			The 'creators' of the modern machine pistol frequently used the term to refer to all automatic firearms chambered in pistol cartridges. Though discussion over what exactly constitutes as a 'pistol cartridge' continues to this day.
