The PM-9 is a submachine gun that appears in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Campaign

The weapon appears in "Stronghold" in the hands of Makarov's men, where the weapon can appear with or without attachments.

Multiplayer

The PM-9 is unlocked at level 56 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer, sporting a 32-round magazine. The PM-9 has the fastest fire rate of any automatic weapon in the game at 1090 rpm, making the weapon very effective in close quarters, featuring decent enough power. However, the PM-9 has a slow reload time and high recoil, both of which can be partially cured by Sleight of Hand and Kick, respectively. Rapid Fire is an interesting choice for the PM-9, as it increases the rate of fire to dizzying levels, and paired with Steady Aim, the PM-9 becomes devastating at close range. The small crosshairs allow it to be used out to medium range. Range will increase the PM-9's maximum three hit kill zone and allow it to be more effective outside of close range. Overall, the PM-9 is extremely effective in close range combat due to its traits, but the three hit kill range is short and the gun itself is outclassed by every other submachine gun in terms of recoil and reload speed.

Pairing Rapid Fire and Extended Magazines is one of the most effective setups for the PM-9,as the recoil is unpredictable and it is not recommended to constantly aim down the sights.Rapid Fire will bolster the PM-9's preformance at close range and give the PM-9 an incredible rate of fire,combined with the three hit kill and reliable hipfire at close range,the PM-9 is capable of killing multiple opponents very quickly.Extended Mags will partly cure the issues of burning through the players ammunition and the slow reload time.with the aforementioned setup,the PM-9 becomes a very powerful close range weapon,but the weapon still suffers from high recoil and limited range.
