The M55 Reising was an American submachine gun designed by Eugene Reising in 1940, entering service primarily in the United States Naval Department along side the M1928A1 Thompson. Chambering a .45 ACP cartridge like the Thompson, although with a lower magazine capacity, the M55 saw service with the Marine Corps during the early years of World War II in the Pacific Theater. The M55 was the variant of the M50 Reising equipped with a folding stock and a pistol grip, making it more compact and a full two kilograms lighter than the Thompson. It was eventually replaced by the Thompson and M1 Carbine completely, known for its unreliability (the stock folding while firing). In addition, the M55 was slightly heavier than the M1 Carbine.
