Historical profile

Originally developed as the Steyr TMP in 1992, production and rights were transferred to Brügger & Thomet in 2001, which refined it by adding a folding stock, ambidextrous safety and Picatinny rails.

Widely used by special forces and VIP protection units worldwide, including the Swiss SOG, German GSG-9 police and several diplomatic security agencies.

Uses a short-recoil rotating-barrel system, rare among submachine guns and borrowed from semi-automatic pistols such as the Beretta Px4.
