The PP-19 Bizon is a 9x18mm Makarov submachine gun developed in 1993 by the Russian company Izhmash. It was designed by a team of engineers headed by Victor Kalashnikov (son of engineer Mikhail Kalashnikov, creator of the AK-47). Alexei Dragunov, son of Yevgeny Dragunov (the creator of the SVD sniper rifle), was also a member of the team.

The Bizon was developed at the request of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) and was primarily intended for counter-terrorist and law enforcement units for close range combat. It is issued to armed response units of the Federal Security Service (FSB) and Ministry of Justice in Russia.

The Bizon uses a simple straight blowback method of operation with an unlocked breech system. One of the Bizon's more unusual features is the magazine, which is often mistaken for a grenade launcher. The cylinder below the barrel is a 64-round helical-feed magazine, similar to the type used in the American Calico M960 submachine gun.
