Radom PM-06 Submachine Gun

I had the opportunity to handle the Polish manufactured Radom PM-06 sub machine gun at SHOT Show. This 9mm Parabellum chambered sub machine gun has a blow back action and fires at 640 rpm out of a 7.2" barrel. It weighs 5.5 lbs. Not having fired it, my only criticism is that they only make a 15 round and 25 round magazine. 25 rounds seems a little small in 2011.

The latest model has a top picatinny rail for optics, side rails for accessories and a rail at 6 o'clock for a forgrip.

These are cool SMGs… You can get them in Canada in semi auto configuration. Never handled one myself, but they are a pretty cool looking design. Aside from the fugly trigger guard when the front handguard is down. (BRS99 sometimes, PM09 all the time) I don’t think 25 rounds is anything to sneer at, however, they should have made it a standard 30 like most of their competition do… such as 30 round proprietary mags for HK MP5, IWI UZI, B&T TP9, FAMAE SAF… etc. my 0.02$

Poles make excellent SMGs, though they all look alike after 50 years.

East german Police (VOPO) & Army (NVA) have this weapon and the configuration of the H&K MP7 are very near

I noticed that they used the Fab Defense folding tactical grip. A great choice!

I like the near AK rpm, must make the recoil manageable.

Are they proprietary mags or based off of a commonly available pistol magazine? For instance if they’re based off of a Glock 9MM design you can always go with a 33 round stick mag or a 290 round drum…

Looks quite like Russian SR-2M SMG

Looks nice looks similar to the Groza SMG Russia uses. Dose it come in both 9×19 and 9x18mm calibers?

Looks like a PM63

Erik, the magazine wells seem to be perfectly vertical. Most pistols have a sloped grip, and an angular magazine to match. Compare a Glock mag to an Uzi mag.

Wait wait wait…All these comments and nobody mentions the hotty! I come here for the gun blogs too, but when Ms. Polonia makes a cameo I can’t help but notice. Go Poland. Gun talk to resume after I come back from a google search for more pics of her.

In that case it could be interchangeable with the M9 magazine.

I’m digging the blonde too… POLAND IS AWESOME AND THEIR WEEMENZ ARE AWESOME!

Also, neat little submachine gun

Plus, it’s a submachine gun-pretty specialized weapon basically for hostage rescue; those don’t tend to see a whole lot of gunfire exchanged. (If there is, the hostages are probably dead by that point. :p) The magazine capacity might not be such a big deal in that sort of scenario.

wait, there were guns in this post

If 25 rounds seems a little ,you had best learn to shoot better!
