Correct, Rico. It is the Australian Owen Machine Carbine. 9mm, 30 round magazine, and a 700 rounds per minute rate of fire.
 
Cool -- never seen it with a curved mag -- wonder if this gun was any better than the Sten?

The book that I found it in said it was the Australian version of the Sten. It was produced after it became difficult to get shipments of Stens from Britain due to Japanese activity in the Pacific. Don't know how it compared pound for pound with the Sten.
