In 1972, the company manufacturing the M2 series(Palmer Weapons Systems or PWS) realized that the M2S MKII was too long for paratroopers, and the small bullet didn't need such a long barrel. Thus, the 7.62X26 Magnum was developed to fit into a STANAG magazine. Then the old model was modified for full-auto function and the scope was removed, along with 8" of barrel.
