Magpul FMG-9

The Magpul FMG-9 is a prototype folding submachine gun, designed by Magpul Industries in 2008. It is made out of polymer in place of metal, reducing weight. The FMG-9 never left the prototype stage, and never saw widespread production on any level, as the item was only produced by Magpul as a proof of concept.

In 2010, Magpul Industries' PTS (Professional Training and Simulation) Division in cooperation with KWA Performance Industries released the FPG (Folding Pocket Gun).[1] The FPG is almost identical to the FMG-9 prototype, but contains the firing mechanism of an airsoft KWA G18C replica. The FPG fires 6mm pellets with a magazine capacity of 49 rounds.[2]

FDP-9

In 2021, Magpul unveiled the FDC-9 (Folding Defensive Carbine) and FDP-9 (Folding Defensive Pistol), two redesigned versions of the FMG-9, that are planned to release in 2023.[3][4]
