Submachine Guns
Thompson Submachine Gun
The Thompson Submachine Gun is used by the Allied themed model (which is based on WWII period US infantry) of the Infantry unit. It also seen on the unit portrait, the Thompson also appears on the portrait of the Axis themed Infantry and Volksgrenadiers unit even though they actually use MP40s and STG44s respectively.

MP40
The MP40 is used by the Axis themed model of the Infantry unit, however, likely due to recycling, their unit portrait shows them with the same Thompson from the Allied version's portrait. The Aztec Jaguar Infantry unique unit also wields the same weapon as the Axis infantry even though the portrait depicts them with M1 Garands. The Jaguar Infantry have unique animation showing them firing the weapon one-handed.

PPSh-41
The PPSh-41 is used by the Russian Red Guards Infantry and Chinese Manchu Infantry unique units.
Ingram MAC-10
The MAC-10 with suppressor is used by the Aztec Jaguar Assault Infantry unit. Like the Jaguar Infantry, this unit also has the unique one-handed firing animation.
Curiously, the MAC-10 wielding Jaguar Assault Infantry are the strongest infantry unit in the game with 27 attack and 15 range while the M16A2 armed regular Assault Infantry and American Assault Marines have 25 attack and 14 range and the AKM using Shock Infantry have 26 attack and 14 range. As for how exactly a .45 cal submachine gun achieves more power and range than M16s and AKs remains a mystery.
