The CETME C2 (also named the CB-64,) is a Spanish submachine gun based on the British Sterling L2A3. It is an open bolt, blowback operated firearm that fires the 9x23mm Largo & 9x19mm pistol cartridge.[1][2] Designed in the 1960s, the C2 has many notable safety features built into it & was later used to replace the Star Model Z-45 submachine gun series for Spain in the 1960s however, was later superseded by the MP5 & Star Z-84.[3]
