MW3 In Depth - PM-9 SMG (w/ Charity Xbox 360 update and video from my wife!)

[@haloschafer]

It's recoil is so high because your dang character one hands the weapon even though it has a fire grip!!!

[@bangasou12]

lol same with the mini uzis

[@Che_Yo]

Lol same with the g18

[@frigglediggle2]

Lol same w my weiner

[@maziku4749]

man i loved this game. it was the last good call of duty for me.

[@elishahahn3064]

black ops 2 was pretty good, but the franchise went downhill starting with ghosts.

[@maziku4749]

oh god ghosts was horrendous. i caved and bought it because there werent many options on the ps4 at the time. didnt take long to regret the purchase. i always wanted to play black ops 1 when it was the newest game but i never did. im almost certain i would have liked it a lot.

[@greenwhale6191]

REVIVE

[@Zeb737]

PM-9 with thermal and silencer all day, might be a weird class but it really helps controlling the recoil :D

[@kingoftherevolution4855]

I use any combo of rapid fire, kick, silencer, and thermal. Great fun.

[@Angelo-jd8xx]

i don't even play this game anymore, i just come here for this guy, love u drift0r

[@waluigi5138]

I'm Japanese and i use this weapons because its japanese and i love this gun !!

[@Y260]

Thanks for the shout-out man. Also- great review you have here, it's un-biased and honest.

[@thatchman9605]

Pm9+steady aim+slight of hand=dome beast

[@-._._._-_._._.-]

Thatchman = 3 kills and no more ammo

[@Snubrevolver]

Thatchman Specialist with Scavenger

[@Drift0r]

Listen to this guy. He knows what he is talking about. Also, that damage per second only makes a big difference if you can actually hit your targets :P

[@troymcalister5000]

This gun reminds me of the Uzi. For that reason, I like it, and occasionally use it.

[@pepperachu]

More like the mac 11 same reload and everything

[@factura5]

I'm so happy. You did an in depth pm-9. I recommend using extended mag and rapid fire. Steady aim of course. And I like using with scavenger. Slow reload when its safe, switch to g18 when its not.

[@arachnid5206]

What I use is pm 9 Range silencer and/or extended mags Extreme Con. Assassin Steady aim/Dead Silence If you flank and get around the enemies, you WILL get doubles, trips and quads, got genocidal accolade SO MANY times

[@GForce_01]

Exactly.

[@darkruler47]

I really like this weapon, it can be awkward at times, but with enough use of the weapon you can get used to it. I've found that if you can aim for the lower body, more often then not, you will get the kill. I've also found that it plays similarly to the Vector from MW2, just with a shorter range. Rec. class setup: Pm-9 w/ Kick, and Suppressor or Red dot and an MP-9 w/ Extended mags or Suppressor. The perks that I use are, SoH, Quick draw or Assassin, and Steady aim. ~Thank you for reading, Bye!

[@yaskobg5656]

i used silencer+ACOG... it might seem crazy, but i was really beasting (and trolling a lot) with that weapon...

[@sowhazupguy]

But why ACOG o_O

[@yaskobg5656]

Even with kick, this weapon is way to inaccurate. And i love putting silencers. So this was decreasing my range + recoil: this is almost impossible to kill someone, that is why i used acog.

[@sowhazupguy]

+Yasko BG but isn't thermal a lot better on it? I never understood people saying the recoil was super terrible, I used it with kick and red dot or extended mags all the time.

[@SickeningMirror]

This gun plus kick and rapid fire is a flat out beast. I had a lot of fun using it. With kick the recoil is actually manageable and rapid fire makes the time to kill extremely quick.

[@lolrus]

I LOVE the iron sights.. are you crazee

[@Nathanity1000]

PM-9 Set-ups. From a former PM-9 player (I prestiged recently). Support class: PM-9, attachments, extended mags and rapid fire. Accurate machine pistol Choice of Lethal Choice of Tactical Sleight of hand Choice of red perk, or overkill and accurate 2nd primary Steady Aim Low killstreaks, like UAV and Counter-UAV. Choice of deathstreaks

[@somespartan3536]

Recommended Set Up for PM9 Silencer or Red Dot Focus, kick or Range Sleight Of Hand Quickdraw Steady Aim Pro

[@pounc3r782]

This is pretty much the Mini-UZI from COD4, which was my favourite silenced gun

[@kairyuubird]

I don't know why, but I'm better with this gun than most smgs xD Maybe I'm a natural born troll

[@kikou1615]

When I used to play I had Overkill as a perk with Rsass as first weapon and this as second. I was freaking unbeateable haahhaha

[@kairyuubird]

Haha mega troll class if you spammed the trigger on that RSASS

[@kikou1615]

It was amazing xD about no skills required but so much fun

[@kairyuubird]

I miss the good old days

[@kikou1615]

me too my friend... me too

[@Yan.H]

Drift0r if you are reading this, according to XboxAhoy's video on damage, all smgs have a headshot multiplier of 1.5, so all smgs with a damage of 25 and above can kill in 2 headshots

[@user-fy5vz4bh9d]

This was my favorite gun back in the day

[@Lordran__]

@ 15th prestige, i've recently started using the pm-9 w/ rapid fire & steady aim & wow! what a great combination. i rarely aim down the sights w/ it. i enjoy using underrated guns like this one. never seen anyone own w/ the pm-9 like i have

[@Woley5]

I have it gold, and i love using it. Extended mags and rapid fire on a close quarters map fits the weapon perfectly

[@Drift0r]

YOU DO NOT DEMAND THINGS OF ME BUT I AM MERCIFUL AND WILL ANSWER: Xboxahoy made a series for Activision. Part of that deal was that he couldn't make a competing series. They viewed his gun reviews on KZbin as competing and took them down.

[@bobjoneswood]

rapid fire+e mags before the patch was really good hipfire and at point blank ads. I can't wait to try it after the patch almost there

[@dillonc7955]

I use this gun as if it were a machine pistol when I'm using something like the PKP or a sniper rifle. This gun is less versatile than the somewhat overpowered MP7, but it dominates the machine pistols and some of the SMGs up close.

[@Drift0r]

I'm 24 earth years in age.

[@cezarcozianu966]

I actually really like the pm9 with just a red dot and using medium length bursts. plus it kills at short range and surprisingly, the recoil is actually advantageous at medium to lang range if you aim at their knees at let the recoil take the aim up to the chest. Its my favorite sub-machine gun by far

[@aSheepsGamertag]

You breaking mah heart Drift0r, this is mah favorite gun on MW3!

[@79000tomas]

Best class setup: 2 Attachments Rapid Fire Extended Mags Perks: 1st: Scavenger (Pro is a LOT better) 2nd: Hardline 3rd: Steady Aim Killstreak: Specialist: Sleight Of Hand, Assassin, Recon. Second Weapon: Mp9 Description: The PM9 is a almost completely CQC weapon, so if you get to need to gun down people at a larger range the MP9 has that capability making this class setup DEADLY at close range and the MP9 has your back when you're unable to handle a medium/long range gunfight.

[@Dimanti88]

I recently started using the PM-9 and after a bit of practice I started to really like it. Try it with range and rapid fire along with Scavenger (you'll need it), Quickdraw and Steady aim (mostly for the 'pro' effect). I use it with specialist 'cause Sleight of hand is really useful to.

[@vendetta941]

I loved her smile Drift0r. ....Her chesticles were pretty cool too.

[@Drift0r]

People just compare us a lot.

[@Alijjose]

Drift0r made this video before the gun got buffed in August.. the buff gave this gun a reduction in recoil making it a more deadlier weapon

[@luisfredz6451]

my favorite gun in mw3. extended mags + silencer, blind eye, assassin, Dead silence with specialist. love hearing kids rage with this setup

[@gold3263301]

He meant with fully automatic guns and he did mention other weapons with Rapid Fire being faster than the PM-9, but with Rapid Fire, it does then indeed become the fastest firing weapon in the game.

[@lillnedy]

After watching this video i decided to try the Pm-9... i love the red dot sight. It is actually an amazing attachment

[@Paulbreetbisihrkotzt]

So, that is THE Drift0r we all love and worship :D

[@spartan3498]

I use the PM-9 often and iv found that if your want more accessorie on the PM-9 you should try the suppressor with red dot, or range or kick with suppressor.

[@CPOdin]

I use supressor and extended mags always hip firing, and then the G18 with extended mags (since i have no trouble with the G18's ads recoil) with Scavenger, Assassin, and Steady aim. That was my go-to class in mw3 and i had so much fun using it

[@darkruler47]

I have and I've gotten it golden only using the setup that I've described. I use kick because I can manage the recoil, but some players, much like myself, use weapons with a lot of upwards kick because it's easy to manage.

[@DethklokFanVideo]

You're right but I addressed that in my original comment. I was using the thermal before the patch came out and found it to be decent. If I had reviewed it before the patch I would of made it clear NOT to ADS unless using the thermal.

[@cinnie]

One of my proudest moments in video game history was when I got a double PM9 MOAB. :D My friends were running support for me, but still, a double PM9 MOAB...

[@YouDewCod]

Mere is my tip #1 Always try to crouch when shooing it lowers your recoil #2 Always use rapidfire #3 Use on 2v2 or 3v3 #4 Stay active with this gun cut people off #5 Rush RUSH dont capm this gun isnt made for that #6 Use the iron sight the gun has had a major recoil reduction in a recent patch

[@brendanbuckley13]

It might not be the most accurate or precise gun but it's so fun to use

[@LatestHour]

I've been having a good time using it lately, but like you said, the hip fire isn't better than any other SMG. I think what makes it so fun is its insane fire rate, and most of all....you hardly ever see it used! That's the best part!

[@convergence1point]

I got 54 and 8 once using a tactic insert with the PM-9, extend mags and range on Dom(Carbon). One of my greatest matchs ever.

[@sneakyshadow7]

With Rapid Fire, Extended Mags, and Steady Aim, the PM-9 is actually pretty good when you hipfire.

[@mskux19]

This is an amazing weapon for your secondary. I use overkill and have this as my second weapon and usually works out pretty well!

[@Gatorade5152]

Drop end, means that the bullet reaches it's minimum damage point. For this gun (Pm9) at close range it does 30 damage, but at drop end range it does minimum damage 20. So the bullet doesn't disappear, but it does minimum damage. So drop end doesn't mean the bullet disappeared, it just means that the bullet after reaching a certain distance from the gun's barrel does lower damage. Hope this clears this up for you.

[@ChildofMadness9]

these may as well be secondary machine pistol but I still love it

[@derekmejia8755]

Actually I LOVE this weapon. I use this weapon with Steady Aim, Rapid fire and extended mags. I ONLY hipfire because of Steady Aim. and i would recommend going to the sides on the map DO NOT go where a lot of enemies are. If you stay on the edge of the map it is more likely to get a kill since most of the time you are going to flank the enemy. i go where high trafic areas are at when im behind them. another good choice might be to get rapid fire and a silencer.

[@FortifierPS3]

I absolutely love this gun I ads with it all the time and very rarely hipfire. I think it has great iron sights and is great for rushing.

[@Dimanti88]

I know it's not a big help but you should check TmarTn's video on the kick proficiency and watch the PM-9 bullet pattern with and without kick, it's funny as hell. I could use focus but if you want to do well with the PM-9 you have to flank enemies, so you're the first one to start shooting most of the time anyway. I haven't tried all the other proficiencies yet, maybe I'll start using dual attachments with rapid fire and extended mags, once I unlock extended mags.

[@carlover975]

I used this gun for something different and it is an absolute beast with this setup silencer and kick kick helps way more on this weapon than other weapons and I use scavenger assasin and steady aim and the strike package predator attack heli and reaper it is a beast

[@mikediloreto5965]

This gun kicks ass with rapid fire, kick, and Steady aim

[@samschellhase8831]

It's fun to use. I'm working on it towards gold camo, and it's about 1/3 of the way through level 30! Either silencer and kick or focus, or attachments with rapid fire and extended mags, which is AWESOME!!!!

[@BeautyandChris]

I decided to try to use this gun a while ago, and I fell in love with it. PM-9 w/ Red Dot. Yah call me crazy but it was awesome and I had fun using it..... no my kd ratio didn't go down, in fact I built it up with this weapon. Believe it or not my secondary was a USAS 12, (Sleight of Hand my first perk). Just try it out. I loved it.

[@WarPigRS]

The PM-9 is a good weapon if you use rapid fire and extended mags. Scavenger is a must and so is steady aim. It's a hip-fire machine, use it that way.

[@zzZIGZAGzz]

PM-9 Attatchments Silencer Rapid Fire MP9 Silencer Semtex Smoke SoH Assassin Steady Aim Final Stand Whatever Strike Package you want. Use the MP9 as your primary, but in CQC use the PM-9. Hipfire with it will win a gun battle every time, even against the FMGs

[@nikbatlik]

i like using it with rapid fire and extended mags, scavenger and steady aim. makes you like a FMGay akimbo user, but without people complaining.

[@PlanarCollapse2]

The most underrated submachine gun in the game! I don't know why people hate it, but I've had a lot of fun using it.

[@Noeltjuhhh]

I was training this for trolin but when i had rapidfire&ext mags on it this gun is so beast

[@Jannabix]

This weapon is the best smg in the game,, its very good without any attachments and using FOCUS proficiency. boom you are going to put all the bullets into your enemy before he can push his buttons. Great video man :)

[@ukguy]

first game with pm9 won FFA 30-9, this gun is beast

[@N00bOps]

i actually like the pm-9. i suggest using range and rapid fire so you can kill faster and at longer ranges. i think the iron sights on the pm-9 is managable, for me it reminds me of the an-91 from battlefield. i say use speacialist and put slight of hand if u dont already have it because bullets run out quick because of high fire rate.

[@convergence1point]

This thing is like a bigass machine pistol, it draws pretty fast too. Great overkill weapon.

[@omegazeroINFI]

you can mitigate its effects by turning around, i only increases its effectiveness when you look at it

[@T0pMan15]

i find that going prone lets you deal better with the recoil because i get my specialist bonus 4 times in a row by doing this

[@LegacyWolf51]

5:08 Made me laugh it was like you saying in your mind "Just don't use this gun bro :(" lol

[@jakubnezgoda3154]

Proved with kick & silencer and it´s awesome. With AA12 it´s deadly combo for most maps.

[@RavingReviews125]

Dude I love this gun in game! I use it for killing and with the red dot sight, kick proficiency and steady aim this gun is immense! I usually never hipfire as the recoil is SO much better. Got 17 kills 10 deaths on Arkaden

[@geothermalrobot]

I have this gun Gold, and I wouldn't say ADSing is useless, every now and then it's actually helpful to ADS. I would recommend using Extended Mags + Silencer, or Extended Mags and Focus, or something. it's actually really good, you just need to get used to it

[@ZackK413]

My other favourite setup. 1 PM-9 Range Extended Mags 2 Duel Desert Eagles T1 Recon T2 Assassin T3 Steady Aim DS-Juiced This is great for flanks

[@T0pMan15]

the best add ons for pm-9 for me is putting stability (gets rid of recoil) and rapid fire..cos i seem to drop people so fast its crazy

[@brazilianEYEreportU]

extended mags and rapid fire, steady aim is a must

[@MxChloeB42]

I know you suggest never aiming down sight, but I think it helps me a lot. Then again I love the guns that have insane amounts of recoil like the AK and M16 so...I guess I'm just weird like that

[@MrJaywalker72]

PM-9 extended mag and rapid fire, RPG, C-4, portable radar, sleight of hand pro, quick draw pro (dont ask) and steady aim pro. You can choose your killstreaks. =Me getting 37 and 5 (not the best, but good for me)

[@FogJohny]

Lucky you. Btw. I've used this gun and I would just recommend dual attachments rapid-fire/extendedmags.

[@CubanVader]

I'm one of the oddballs that loves this gun for reasons other than trolling. It's one of my higher kdr weapons. I say take rapid fire and extended mags and use specialist. Starting perks scavenger hardline steady aim. Specialist perk soh and whatever else (I use assassin sit rep). If you don't want dual g18s then the silenced or extended mags mp9 works great to give you range

[@TheTeeWorldsfreak]

hey @Drift0r , if you use kick on this gun you can compensate MUCH MUCH of recoil! (on the ps3)

[@ZackK413]

same here bro i love it extended mags and rapid fire its a BEAST

[@ThatCurlyGuy95]

i used this gun all the way to level 30, and at the beginning i couldn't stand it, but by the end it felt like the best gun in the game. ADS was actually really good once i learnt how to control the recoil and stuff. basically this gun takes a lot of practice to do well with it

[@mitchhammond3213]

I just used it the other day this thing melts people so fast up close. Mw3's weapons have really high recoil.

[@-._._._-_._._.-]

Mitch Hammond Thermal with rapid fire, this thing is as fun as a curious puppy

[@Koolkid736]

this gun is actually amazing at close-medium range. but only with hipfire. my k/d with this weapon is one of my highest according to CoD Elite..

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

This is a good secondary with overkill, as it draws fast and its the best smg in the game if it weren't for range and kick

[@DrLadyfingersMD]

I LOVE THE PM9! I've been using it forever. Exmags rapid-fire all day.

[@Quiverson]

I just realized that IW used the MAC 11 model from black ops, made the mag size bigger and gave it a very odd grip to the model. Seriously that's what it looks like.

[@jorge60343]

Thank Driftor,After watch this video I got a MOAB with the PM-9! The second in my life!!!

[@dapths3281]

THAT ENDING THOUGH.

[@osvald2020]

the pm-9 is a really good weapon. it's the weapon which iv'e got closest to moab with 23 killstreak or one from moab.

[@haletwo]

i use rapid fire + extended mags because its a beast at close/middle range. I also use overkill with a more accurate smg so im not completely helpless outside of cqc

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

With the acr as your primary. and use soh pro or whatever it is that makes you switch weapons faster. its a beast.

[@robbokris64]

Pm9 rapid fire and kick and using ADS works reasonably well but you will burn through ammo ridiculously fast.

[@DaSparkRunner]

PM-9 is my fun weapon. It's the weapon I like to use when I'm not using my MK-14 (which is my personal favorite weapon to use).

[@NoahTheJew17]

i can just imagine, "the pm9 akimbos are so overpowered, infinity ward needs to patch this!"

[@whodatwindat]

i see people use this gun and make some crazy longshots with it and i tried using it for like 3 hours straight and i couldnt make this gun work for me , i think the mp7 is the best gun on the game it has no recoil hardly , its like a assult rifle but in a submachine gun , you can shoot longshots without muzzle rise , its mobile so you run faster with it than assult rifle and lmgs, its damage is medium but its really accurate so the damage doesnt matter because you can just hold the trigger down

[@justinhall1606]

This gun is ok when you use silencer with focus, and sleight of hand, quickdraw, and steady aim. With specialist scavenger, assassin, and stalker. Pretty good IMO.

[@fozzybearFTW]

I've never had a problem with the iron sights, and I think it may be unintentional, but when I put kick on it, there is basically no recoil when looking down the sights, and barely any when from the hip :)

[@gold3263301]

The PM-9 needs a good, rapid firing secondary that can be raised very quickly.
