Their best-known development was the Agram 2000 submachine gun, a very well-built weapon submitted to Croatian military trials in the early 1990s. In the wake of prosecution for making the Agram illicitly after its military rejection, Marko Vugrek developed a number of guns specifically for illicit use, including this well-done cell phone gun. They began to turn up in the Balkans and throughout Europe around 2007, and investigations traced them back to their Croatian creator.<\/p>\n<p>A big thanks to the Croatian Police Museum (<em>Muzej Policije<\/em>) in Zagreb for giving me access to film this rare piece for you!
