Chambered in 9mm, this pistol is based on the currently available MPA930SST, but it comes with a fully machined aluminum pistol grip and lower receiver, thereby reducing pistol weight.

As the press release notes, the MPA930DMG comes standard in Cerakote Tungsten coating.

The 9x19mm and.45 ACP versions were introduced simultaneously.

The.380 ACP version was introduced later in the same year.

The MAC-10 was then offered to the U.S.

Military during the final years of the Vietnam War as a weapon for special operations and for support personnel, like armored units (hoping to replace the M3A1 Grease Gun Submachine gun as the self defense weapon of most tank crews).

The lack of a foregrip motivated M.A.C.

But it was still an awkward weapon to fire and was most popular when mated with the efficient Sionics Two Stage Sound Suppressor.

The Sionics Suppressor increased the length, quieted the sound (in a manner that was impressive for its day), and gave the shooter a stable point to grab with the second hand.

Unfortunately no major military ever formally adopted the weapon and it was sold mostly to elite police units (foreign and domestic) as well as special covert ops units until Military Armament Corporation went bankrupt in 1976.

The death knell was the U.S.

Government ban on selling SilencersSuppressors to other countries (a ban that has since been lifted).

As foreign clients only wanted the MAC-10 with the Sionics Suppressor, orders fell to nothing.

Ingram MAC-10s can still be seen in South and Central America (usually gifts from the CIA over the years) and in the armories of some European countries, but no one uses it as a front line weapon any more.

Only the MAC guns built by M.A.C.

Gordon Ingram was there) can be called Ingram MAC-10s.

It is worth noting that this is not official nomenclature (Military Armament Corporation only ever called them the M10 and M11) but since it is so frequently used by dealers, collectors and firearms authorities, it has become more or less the generally accepted name for these guns.

This is the semiautomatic pistol, note how the selector switch is on the opposite side of the receiver and the pins are in different places on the receiver.

Cobray was the company that emerged when SWD closed down in 1986, however SWD was the first company to design the elongated M119 pistol that Cobray became famous for.

All of the fully transferable SWDCobray M11 submachine guns were actually built by SWD between 1978 and 1986.

Cobray continued placing the SWD logo on many of their frames, but Cobray (the new company) actually only manufactured semi-automatic pistols for public sale after 1986 until they themselves folded (for the most part) in the late 1990s (though they still exist now, selling replacement parts for their guns, they are just a shadow of their former selves).

When identifying MAC variants on IMFDB, look closely at the back of the receiver to see if it is elongated.

Numerous upgrades have been made in materials, stock design, fire controls, and accessories.
