The '''Steyr TMP''' ({{Langx|de|Taktische Maschinenpistole|4=Tactical Machine Pistol}}) is a [[9×19mm Parabellum]] caliber [[machine pistol]] manufactured by [[Steyr Mannlicher]] of Austria.  

== Design ==
The [[Magazine (firearms)|magazines]] come in 15 or 30 round detachable box types.  

A [[suppressor]] can also be fitted. Though originally intended to be used without a shoulder stock, an optional fixed stock was made available later. 

== Variant ==

=== SPP ===

The Steyr SPP (Special Purpose Pistol) is a semi-automatic variant of the TMP. 

The TMP's barrel and barrel jacket lengths were increased slightly so there is a greater length of protruding jacket and barrel. 

The forward tactical pistol grip was also removed. It is large for a pistol and is constructed mainly from [[Nylon 66]].<ref>{{cite book|first=Ray|last=Bonds|author2=David Miller|title=Illustrated Directory of Special Forces|publisher=Zenith Imprint|year=2003|page=224|isbn=978-0-7603-1419-7}}</ref>
