Folding stock TSMGs are in the realm of "Mare's Leg" Winchesters, U.N.C.L.E. Walthers, and "Road to Perdition" Thompsons (quick disconnect front grip setup) - Hollywood as John Jr indicates.
I did my M1A1 underfolder (see pictures on a prior thread - which I refer to as a Tactical Thompson or my "Highway to Hell" gun) so it would all neatly fit including magged ammo in a single SWAT case. Hanks had to carry mags separately in "Road to Perdition" which I consider a serious flaw.
