3M ("M"innesota "M"ining and "M"anufacturing) made a lot of photographic film over the years -- including disc film -- appearing under the 3M label, and several other brand names -- but 3M never made any disc cameras. However there were at least four disc cameras that were sold with the 3M label on them. They were all re-badged Haking cameras, that had 12.5mm f2.8 fixed-focus, fixed aperture lenses, a fixed shutter speed, a built-in flash that required batteries -- and were sold under other names as well, such as Dixons, Haking, Halina, and Continental.
Although this model is lowest on the 3M totem pole, it has nice features: a 12.5mm f2.8 lens with a lens cover. It also has a setting for sun or for cloudy/built-in flash. Requires two AA batteries for the flash, of course.
Same as the Disc 103 but adds a motor drive.
It is the same as the Disc 203, but it adds a Cds meter. There is an ON/OFF switch for the flash and when ON, the meter will fire the flash only when needed. In addition, it has a front cover that flips down.
There is no evidence that this model existed, but I would not be surprised.
The features are the same as the Disc 303, but it has a "Sensor-Flash", so the ON/OFF switch has been removed and the flash is completely automatic.
