    WE DO! The good ol' U.S. of A.

    A 'machine pistol' is an automatic weapon that fires pistol caliber ammunition(.45ACP, 9mm Luger,etc.)

    The machine pistols with the fastest ROF (Rate of Fire) are the Ingram design manufactured by MAC (Military Armaments Corp.) of Smyrna, GA.

    ALL Ingram design weapons are 'machine pistols'.

    MAC-10 .45ACP

    MAC-11 9mm Luger

    MAC-12 .380ACP

    These weapons fired at a rate between 1200-1500 rpm.

    this is probably beyond your definition of 'machine pistol'

    ...but it's interesting. 180 rounds per second ?
