De Bergmann MP18.1 of Bergmann MP18/I was een van de eerste echte pistoolmitrailleurs. Ontworpen tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog door Waffenbau, werd hij verdeeld onder de troepen van eerste lijn (met name Sturmtruppen, Duitse aanvalstroepen). Het basisontwerp beïnvloedde vele latere pistoolmitrailleurs.
