The weapon is the predecessor of the FMK-3 submachine gun and it is not entirely clear whether it was really mass-produced, the previous PAM-1 and PAM-2 are licensed American M3A1 submachine guns modified to a 9x19mm round. The PA-3 is really inspired by the system that first appeared in the design of Jaroslav Holeček and was subsequently taken over by, for example, UZI. Apparently, the designation PA-3 is just a designation of prototypes, the series probably ran under the designation FMK-3. By the way, the PA-3D designation is more accurate, the DM designation should belong to a weapon adapted for mounting a grenade launcher.

Diskuse

The PA-3 DM means in my Pistol Ametralladora 3, Domingo Matheu. Version with a grenade launcher is not marked particularly, and relates to a gun FMK.

With the possibility that this is a prototype or the zero series, I would have agreed, now it seems to me that there was only relabelling weapons. Yet it is clear, however, that the FMK-3 at least mod. 2 different cap breech..

According to some sources, the version without the grenade launcher značile only PA-3D, how much of this is real due to the fact that the weapons are probably in the larger series never did that of course is the question. Theoretically, although the DM may indicate Domingo Matheu, but personally, I'd bet, the factory is actually called "Military factory small arms "Domingo Matheu"" and Domingo Matheu is something like an honorary title (such as plants In.Also. Lenin) by a dead policy. While it is possible that the name (the question is how much the official) was, according to this, but it is according to me little probable. Personally, I think that the designation of the PA is just a working title and at the time of receipt of the equipment it was renamed FMK (there it is right according to the factory) That PA actually induces that it is a further development of the previous submachine guns, or is it just that the designation sub-machine gun in Spanish.

Well just FMK me the factory doesn't fit- "FM"- clear, but "To"? I thought the carbine, but that is with a "C".

I also stumbled on it, that the variant with a retractable support is referred to: the PA-3 DM-FMK-3..

Well I'm afraid that it's completely different, FMK - is some kind of general designation, it is used also for other types of weapons (like american or british Mk. So there is also the FMK-3 as a 60 mm mortar (from the other military factories) so the FM is probably the fabrica militar, but not relative to the weapon but that it is a pattern and must be followed by the type of weapon (such as the american M3 can be a machine gun or a light and medium tank)
well and if you look here : http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/FMK-3 is there an explanatory sentence of "Nacía así la PA-3 DM, conocido posteriormente como FMK-3". Thus originated the PA-3 DM later known as the FMK-3, nu, and because between the emergence of the PA-3 and the start of production of FMK at the beginning 70a 1974 is not much time for any more development, let alone production, it seems that the designation of PA-3 was only in the period of development, not production, that is apparently no longer held as the FMK-3. It is theoretically possible that the foreign was used and the internal designation of the factory, but more common is the boast is that it has its own army established, and that therefore the buyer is buying a pig in a poke Smile

Just for the record here's the FMK-3 in a quite different form Smile articles.janes.com.

FM can tell you even before Fabricacion Militar.

Can, the question is what is it To which refers probably to something like pattern, type, model simply to distinguish the things within the group, the FMK-3 is, for example, and mina, so the army probably marked the weapons within the group always symbols FMK and number (it is always in a group of at least FMK-1, FMC-2 and FMC-3). While FM is probably the designation that it is a gun for the army (maybe "fuerza"? I don't know if it works with a militar, need to be in the importance of ground forces?) the air force nor the navy this marking probably used, at least for him they did not come across. To should then mean something like "pattern" and the number after the dash (the latter sometimes absent) then the specific weapon. And just for the record, guns PA-1 and PA-2, therefore, the license of the U.S. M3A1 were marked (perhaps retrospectively and retroactively) as the FMK-1 and FMK-2. So marking in Argentina is unclear, but it looks to me like at the turn of the 60a 70 marking has changed, so older weapons were re-labeled and new accepted as "FMK" Then, while the PA-3 began in the old labelling, but adopted would have been in the new and it would have been one weapon with the FMK-3, which according to the pictures probably is. The question of course is, if that's the way it was. It will probably be in the springs rather from Argentina, and in addition to Spanish, which is a little outside of my normal options Smile.
