Description
date of existence: 1990s

creator: Minebea Co.

cartridge: 9×19mm Parabellum

wielder: lannister arbalesters

The PM-9[2] is produced by the Nippon Miniature Bearing Company , otherwise known as Minebea. The design is analogous to the Mini-Uzi submachine gun.[8] It was adopted in 1999 for non-frontline forces such as vehicle drivers, artillery personnel, some of its special forces units,[9] and some commissioned officers who were given priority for better equipment.[10]
Though it has been the official submachine gun for more than a decade, as of 2009 JSDF officials are looking at a possible replacement, as it is planned to phase it out in the near future. One possible replacement is the Heckler & Koch MP5 .[9] JSDF troops assigned to guard duty on both Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) and JASDF garrison bases had their PM-9s replaced with other high-performing submachine guns,[11] and the JGSDF will also eventually replace the PM-9.[12]
