Magpul Folding Carbine FMG 9
Check out the latest Magpul creation. It is a folding carbine. Similar to the Ares FMG and PP-90. It appears to use some glock parts uses the Glock action, magazines and laser systems.
A couple of video demostrations:
Some photos from GlockTalk.com:
It looks very cool!
Compare with other FMG type firearms
The original Ares FMG which was designed by Eugene Stoner:
the PP-90, designed by the KBP design bureau in Tula:
the Ukrainian Goblin
And although very different the Kel-Tec SUB-2000 (this folds for storage, not rapid deployment).
I will update this page as more information becomes available.
UDPATE:
According to this thread, it is called the FMG9 and Magpul do not have plans to put it into production, at this point it is just a prototype… although I am sure James Bond will get his hands on one for his next movie!
UPDATE
Another video demo
UPDATE: From ar15.com:
The advantage to the FMG9 over previous versions are…
1. One button, spring loaded action.
2. Light weight, color coded plastic (can be molded as a non gun color)
3. Closed bolt, safe action (others were open bolt SMGs, ours can be carried with a round in the chamber).
4. Proven Glock action with stock Glock factory magazines and laser systems.
