Looks fun!

Bet it does not perform as well as it looks.

12.7x55mm...a short .50?

Also looks like a molested bushmaster bullpup.

So it's basically a .50 Beowulf bullpup.


Seems to be...totally impractical for mil applications (at large issue) but would be fun in a non-mil application of say, busting clays placed on top of Igor's head at 100 meters.

Hey Vasilli, hold my Vodka...watch this

This revolver looks like a S&W 500, Medusa & Chiappa gangbanged each other and this is the bastard result that should have been aborted with a coat hanger.

I wonder how much kick this round will have.  A 50 beowulf is 12.7x42 and a normal 50 cal is 12.7x99.  I wonder if this round is subsonic and is Russias answer to the 300blackout niche.

Russia's 300 blackout is the 9x39mm but it is much better than the blackout.

The State Dept had some .50 Beowulfs in Iraq.
Used them for stopping vehicles.
I heard they worked great when shooting down from a chopper
through the hood into the engine........

9x39 sounds a lot like the 338 Spectre.(sp?)

Based on size alone I would say this new Russian round is more powerful than the .50 Beowulf.

.50 Beowulf is 12.7 x 42mm vs. Russian 12.7 x 55mm.

9x39mm has been in Russian service for a long time....

9x39mm FMJ and AP next to a 7.62x39mm

I dunno.........lack of interest by the importer, unwillingness to sell that particular
cartridge to decadent capitalists by the Russians.....not sure.

Tula said they could make a sporting load
Izhmash said they could make a sporting rifle

but people didn't think they'd sell any..............fools......

Maybe some sort of recoil reducing mechanism in there?

Would the standard steel core AP ammo be a no go? Obviously importation would be an issue, but could it realisticly be made here then loaded into primed brass since it's not a pistol round?

The more I think about it, the more I wonder wtf the Russians plan to use a full auto bullpup carbine that fires what could be the ballistic equivalent of a 458 Winchester magnum for?  It makes me wonder if they have some kind of secret super soldier program that's creating some huge hulkish spetznatz or something.
