The Poliçan P84, also known as Project 84, (Albanian: Projekt 84) or Xhevdet Mustafa’s Kalashnikov, was a notable Albanian submachine gun produced by the Poliçan Arsenal throughout the 1980s during the regime of Enver Hoxha. Manufactured in Gramsh, Albania, during the Cold War–era, this submachine gun, equipped with an integrated silencer, was primarily intended for sabotage units.
