You missed out on my joke, but seeing as you're being argumentative, so will I. A machine gun is a gun that fires fully automatically. A sub machine gun is not 'below a machine gun' as you say. You're right about the pistol cartridge, but it is a machine gun, as it fires fully automatic as well. Fact.
I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE CALL THIS A MACHINEGUN!!!!

Dude, a sub-MACHINE GUN is a machine gun.

no, SUB means below, below a machine gun, which means it is compact and fires a pistol cartridge.
machine gun- MG42
SUBmachine gun- MP40

well while we are argueing
since an SMG shoots a smaller pistol cartridge it is "below" an MG in power. whatever dude i don't care anymore
lets agree that the sten was a crappy yet unique SMG.

@clogspecialist i agree, but the sten was very reliable and was extremerly cheaply made, stamped steel, it was made in a time of need
