The Agram 2000 is a Croatian submachine gun inspired by Beretta's model M12.[3] The name "Agram" is the old German name for Zagreb, the capital of Croatia.[4] The vast numbers of ex-special forces Agrams in Croatia after the Croatian War of Independence, as well as the availability of a sound suppressor, has made it a popular choice for criminals.[5] It was never officially adopted by the Croatian Army.[6] Infamously unreliable in the war period due to its poorly constructed magazines, it would often fail to feed rounds from the magazine, decreasing its commercial demand outside of Croatia and transnational criminal organizations of the time.

The Agram 2000, like the Beretta M12, was chambered for the 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge. These weapons were used in the Kosovo War and were preferred due to its full-auto fire, provisions for silencer, flexible ammunition count and compact size.[7] Today, the 2000 series is a rarity outside the Balkan areas, because even though it is still produced in Croatia, its production has been scaled down. Mainly produced between 1990 and 1993, only a few more examples have been produced since 1997. The reason for this is that the Agram 2000 is locally manufactured and there is no more conflict or demand for a fully automatic SMG in the region anymore, and low demand due to poor and cheap construction.
