PM-9

:For similarly named weapons, see PM63, MP9 and M9.
The PM-9 is a submachine gun featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
==Campaign==
The weapon appears once in the campaign, in "Stronghold" in the hands of one of Makarov's men.
==Multiplayer==
The PM-9 is unlocked at level 56.
At any range short of ten meters, the PM-9 will deal 35 damage per bullet, needing three shots to kill. Damage linearly decreases until fifteen meters. At any range beyond fifteen meters, the PM-9 will deal twenty damage per bullet, needing five hits to kill. The PM-9 has a three hit kill range of 10.3 meters, and a four hit kill range of 13.3 meters. In Hardcore game types, the PM-9 has a one shot kill range of roughly twelve meters. The PM-9 has low penetration power. Headshots with the PM-9 provide a 50% damage increase, which is sufficient in most circumstances to require one less shot to kill, and a headshot in Hardcore is a guaranteed one shot kill at any range.
The PM-9 fires fully automatically at a rate of 1111 RPM.
The PM-9 has recoil values of 65 to the left, 65 to the right, 70 upwards, and 30 downwards. The PM-9 has a centerspeed value of 1650.
The PM-9 allows users to move at 100% of the base speed, or strafe at 80% of the base speed. The PM-9 allows users to aim down the sight in 200 milliseconds, and the PM-9 has good hip-fire accuracy. The PM-9's reload animation is 3 seconds long, or 4.13 seconds long if the magazine is empty. In either case, the user can Reload Cancel the PM-9 after 2.2 seconds. 
The PM-9 has a magazine capacity of 32 rounds, and a starting ammo loadout of 96 rounds.
The PM-9 has the standard assortment of SMG attachments and weapon proficiencies, all of which work as intended on the PM-9.
Infinity Ward has released a hotfix that has decreased the recoil of the PM-9 drastically to make it much more on par with the PP90M1. The recoil profile after the update appears to be similar to the Mini Uzi from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

==Survival Mode==
The PM-9 is available in Survival Mode at level 23 and costs $2000. The PM-9 is also used by Claymore Experts. The PM-9 is highly effective in close quarters, but the recoil and the reload time lessens the weapon's potential, as well as the late availability of Sleight of Hand. Because of the very high RPM, it is capable of killing enemy Juggernauts almost instantly at close range. Dumping a full magazine at point-blank range into it's head will quickly dispatch it, though this is extremeley risky unless the player does this as soon as the Juggernaut is dropping from the helicopter that transports it into the map, as otherwise the Juggernaut with easily kill the player in seconds.

==Trivia==
*The PM-9 is held by one hand in first-person, but held with two hands in third-person.
*Attaching a sight will make the hand clip through it during an empty reload.
*The PM-9 has a partial fingerprint on the rear receiver. This is similar to the Mini-Uzi from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, where that gun also had a large fingerprint smudge on the back of the receiver.
