Pál Király

Pál Király is an Hungarian engineer and weapons designer.

Work & Designs

He is best known for design of the lever-delayed blowback system. He invented the Danuvia 39M and improved it into the Danuvia 43M Submachine gun. After he moved to the Dominican republic, he designed the .30 Kiraly-Cristobal carbine, which was essentially a copy of his earlier work, specifically the 44M (an improved 43M). He made two more Cristobal carbine versions, the M2 en M3. He patented the latter in 1961 as a competitor to the Belgian FN FAL [Sunblest.net, [http://www.sunblest.net/gun/Cristo.htm Kiraly-Cristobal Submachine Guns & Machine Pistols] ] .

Personal life

He moved to the Dominican Republic as an expatriate in 1948.
