What are open bolt sub machine gun?

At the start of the firing sequence, the bolt is held to the rear. Pulling the trigger permits the bolt to move forward, stripping a cartridge from the magazine, chambering, firing, extracting and ejecting it. A closed bolt gun starts the firing squence with a round already chambered, and the bolt closed on the cartridge. The M3 Greasegun was an open bolt, the Thompson SMG a closed bolt.

The bolt is in the closed (forward) position when the weapon fires, as opposed to an open bolt, in which the bolt is in the open (rearward) position when the weapon fires.
