Historical profile

Developed by Steyr-Mannlicher between the late 1980s and early 1990s and introduced in 1992 as a modern alternative to the MAC-10 and Uzi Pro.

It uses a short-recoil rotating-barrel mechanism, rare among PDWs, which significantly reduces felt recoil.

In 2001 the rights were sold to Brügger & Thomet, who relaunched the design as the B&T MP9 with a folding stock and numerous ergonomic changes.
