Australian inventor Evelyn Owen built early submachine-gun prototypes from available parts; one early version was described as revolver-like. The Australian War Memorial preserves a later .22-calibre prototype with a 44-round drum fed by a coil spring. The popular account blends different designs: the museum’s drum held 44 rounds, not 50.
