The Taurus SMT is a family of submachine guns manufactured by Taurus Firearms. It was introduced in early 2011, under the designation MT G2.[1]
Taurus also offers a semi-automatic only variant of the MT G2, known as the CT G2, which is intended for the civilian and security markets.
Variants
Taurus offers the SMT in two different variants; the SMT9 and SMT40, the only difference between the two is their calibre.
The Taurus CT G2 is a semi-automatic only pistol-caliber carbine variant of the MT G2. It was first announced at the 2011 SHOT Show.[2][3] The CTT40 is a further evolution of the CT G2 series.
The Taurus T9 is the Indian variant developed along with Jindal Defence. It is manufactured in India with transfer of technology.[4]
