It is referencing the extended inner barrel version of the Walther MPL, chambered in 9x19mm Luger.

MPL stands for maschinenpistole lang, or machine pistol long, abbreviated as MPL. The gun is chambered in 9x19mm Luger. I am assuming the E stands for the extended inner barrel variant. Who knows... the e might be unnecessary. $10 says the gun looks like this though...

Are you sure it's Russian? There are more than 1 languages that use Cyrillic..
