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.The PM-9 also has very limited range which strains it's effectiveness outside of close range,this can be partly cured by the Range Proficiency.
Pairing Rapid Fire,Extended Mags and Steady Aim,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 performance at close range and give the PM-9 an unmatched rate of fire.and 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 the gun burning through the players ammunition quickly and its slow reload time.
With the aforementioned setup, the PM-9 statically becomes the most powerful submachine gun in the game and is extremely powerful within the short range the weapon is suited for.Despite the high power at close ranges,the PM-9 still suffers from high recoil,limited range and a slow reload time.Weaknesses of which can be cured by perks and proficiencies chosen at the players discretion.
