The Beretta PM12S, 9 x19 mm select fire (safe, semi, auto) is an example of what can be claimed to be the best open bolt sub-machine gun in the world. Not only is its super smooth action and controllability superb and a bit shocking when you first shoot it, but also its features are extremely unique and well thought out. This is quality of design and manufacturing of an open bolt sub-machine gun at its highest. The Beretta PM12S is still in production in various variants since 1959 according to Wiki. Used extensively by the Italian military, police, and in numerous wars around the world, etc. The SMG has multiple safeties. A flip switch safety, a grip safety that locks the bolt either forward or rearward. There is also another safety that does not allow the firearm firing pin to hit the primer until the round is fully chambered. In addition to the rail guided bolt that makes it so smooth, there are windage and elevation adjustable sights with a flip up peep sight for 100m or 200m. On top of that is a very well designed side folding stock that is not in the way when opened or closed. Rate of fire is 550 rpm and has push pin disassembly Firearm comes with three high capacity magazines. Firearm is in excellent condition.
