SR-1 Vektor
The SR-1 Vektor also known as the Gyurza (''Гюрза'', Russian for " blunt-nosed viper") or Serdyukov SPS is a semi-automatic pistol. Design The operating system is based on the Beretta 92, utilizing a dropping block. The frame is polymer and steel. While the SR-1 does not have a traditional manual safety, it is equipped with a grip safety that disengages the trigger mechanism, as well as a trigger safety to prevent fire when the trigger is not depressed. Additionally the hammer must also be placed into half-cock to engage the sear and enable double action firing. The SR-1 pistol is chambered in 9×21mm Gyurza, a specialised cartridge also used by the SR-2 Veresk submachine gun designed for the Russian military. Variants SR-1M The SR-1M variant redesigns and modernizes the handguns frame, adds a lanyard loop behind the magazine, and enlarges the grip safety device for easier usage. SR-1MP The SR-1MP variant is a further modernization kit of the SR-1M which adds two ad ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

MP-446 Viking
The MP-446 Viking is an Hammerless, internal hammer firing 9×19mm Parabellum, 9mm Semi-automatic pistol, semi-automatic handgun originating from Russia.

The MP-446 is a short recoil operation, recoil-operated, locked breech pistol. It weighs around when unloaded, and has a Magazine (firearms), magazine capacity of 18 rounds. The key differences between MP-446 and MP-443 are the frame materials (polyamide rather than steel) and barrel construction: the barrel of the MP-446 was intentionally weakened to prevent the safe use of high-powered armour-piercing military rounds (i.e. Russian 9×19mm Parabellum, 9x19mm 7N21 type, 9x19mm NATO) or civilian "Overpressure ammunition, +P" or "+P+" cartridges.

OMON
OMON is a system of military special police units within the Armed Forces of Russia. It previously operated within the structures of the Soviet and Russian Ministries of Internal Affairs (MVD). Originating as the special forces unit of the Soviet Militsiya in 1988, it has played major roles in several armed conflicts during and following the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union. OMON is much larger and better known than SOBR, another special-police branch of the National Guard of Russia. In modern contexts, OMON serves as a riot police group, or as a gendarmerie-like paramilitary force. OMON units also exist in Belarus, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, and other post-Soviet states. However, some post-Soviet units have changed names and acronyms. Russian speakers commonly refer to OMON officers as ''omonovtsy'' (; singular: omonovyets – ). On 5 April 2016 OMON became part of the newly-established National Guard of Russia, ending its years as part of the MVD. The MVD continues to ...

Stechkin APS
The Stechkin or APS (''Avtomaticheskiy Pistolet Stechkina'' = ''Автоматический Пистолет Стечкина'') is a Soviet selective fire machine pistol that is chambered in 9×18mm Makarov and 9×19mm Parabellum. History Submachine guns such as the PPSh-41 or the PPS-43 were declared obsolete shortly after the adoption of the AK47 assault rifle. A new self-defence weapon was requested for artillery and mortar crews, tank crews and aircraft personnel, for whom a cumbersome assault rifle was deemed unnecessary. Igor Yakovlevich Stechkin, recently graduated in 1948 from the Tula Mechanical Institute, began work on this new automatic weapon concept, competing against other prolific designers such as Vojvodin and Kalashnikov. Stechkin designed a select-fire pistol capable of accurate fire up to 200 meters, with the possibility of attaching a combination holster/shoulder stock. Field-testing of the first prototypes was undertaken from April to June 1949. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
