Magpul FMG-9

Page issues

The Magpul FMG-9 is a prototype for a

new generation of folding submachine
guns, designed by Magpul Industries in
2008. Like other folding machine guns, it
would be used for concealed carry and
can be disguised as anything from a
small package to an extra laptop battery.
It is made out of a light-weight polymer
material rather than metal, making it very
light and easy to carry. It was developed
for potential use by personal protection
details such as the United States Secret
Service. As of 2014 Magpul has
indicated no intention of bringing the
prototype to production.
