Following the unveiling of the [[QCW-05]] submachine gun at the 2005 International Police Equipment Expo in [[Beijing]], [[Jianshe Industries (Group) Corporation]], a company under the [[China South Industries Group Corporation]] state-owned conglomerate presented an export variant of their latest submachine gun at the 2006 MILIPOL expo named the 'JS 9 mm'.<ref>http://www.globalmil.com/military/army/china/infantry/2017/0218/400.html{{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230402033711/http://www.globalmil.com/military/army/china/infantry/2017/0218/400.html|date=April 2, 2023}}</ref>
Internally, the JS 9 mm is exactly the same as the QCW-05, which is a submachine gun designed for use by the [[People's Liberation Army Ground Force]], [[People's Liberation Army Special Operations Forces]] and the [[People's Armed Police]] except for the different chambering.
The JS 9 mm is designed for export to the international market, specifically at various police and law enforcement forces and not for domestic use either with military or any police force.<ref name="WG"/> Currently the JS 9 mm is exported worldwide by [[NORINCO|NORINCO Equipment, Ltd.]] through a marketing agreement with China South Industries Group.
==Design==
Internally, the JS 9 mm is identical to the QCW-05 as a select-fire, open bolt, blowback operated submachine gun with a screwable suppressor that is capable of using many different 9×19mm cartridges.
The only difference between the two submachine guns is that the JS 9 mm is slightly smaller and lighter compared to the QCW-05 and uses the common 9×19mm round. The JS 9 mm is also capable of accepting widely used MP5 magazines along with its own double-column, 30-round, box magazine.<ref name="SD"/> As the JS 9 mm does not share the QCW-05's carry handle, the sight bridge is mounted on top of a receiver on a [[Picatinny rail]] and can be removed in favor of a multitude of aiming equipment.<ref name="SD"/>
The JS 9 mm possesses three different firing modes, automatic, semi-automatic and [[Safety (firearms)|safety]].<ref name="National Cultural Resources Sharing Project">{{cite web | url=http://www.ndcnc.gov.cn/datalib/Weapon/2005/2005_11/weapon.2005-10-12.7312514151 | title=国产新型JS 9mm冲锋枪初窥 | publisher=National Cultural Resources Sharing Project | author=黄俊 袁炜 | language=zh | date=2005-10-12 | access-date=2007-09-15 | archive-date=2006-08-23 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060823065827/http://www.ndcnc.gov.cn/datalib/Weapon/2005/2005_11/weapon.2005-10-12.7312514151 | url-status=dead }}</ref>
