The SDK (Schalldämpfer Karabiner, "Silenced Carbine") is an obscure WWII-era German silenced bolt-action carbine. Little reliable information on the weapon exists, and most information, including the given name, comes from the claims of James P. Atwood, an Axis memorabilia collector (who was a controversial figure for making fake Nazi daggers) who claimed to have obtained a model marked No. 2 in the late 1960s. Atwood claimed that the rifle was commissioned by the chief of Berlin police, Graf von Helldorff, for use by the Gestapo, and used special unmarked 9×19mm rounds with soft-nosed tips laced in cyanide. No gun with the serial No.1 has ever been found.
The SDK appears to have been a bullpup design, with the bolt, breech, and magazine feed located in the stock of the weapon. The barrel ran along the entire length of the gun and was encased in a large integral suppressor. The SDK was outfitted with a scope and had a twin-trigger arrangement. The gun used Luger magazines.
