The Most Underrated Subgun Ever Made: Beretta PM12
The Beretta PM12 is highlighted as an underrated 20th-century submachine gun, praised for its controllability due to a slow cyclic rate (550 RPM) and a telescoping bolt design that allows for a compact form factor. Despite its historical service in numerous countries and its legendary reliability, it remains less recognized than contemporaries like the Uzi and MP5, partly due to its limited availability to US collectors. The PM12's design evolved from the M1938, incorporating stamped steel for faster, cheaper production and featuring a triple safety system.
