That gun knife looks deadly at both ends!
Thanks for the pics Samuel |

Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
|

recoil from that bayonet gun could brove...uh...painful!!!
why the white gloves? in addition to the stechkin and the integrally suppressed round pistol, what is the other pistol shown laying on the pack? |
|
I see mostly plumb/black stocks. Do they still use wood? Does any country use wood stocks still?
|
|
wood is sooo 1950's |

It is a little, but not too bad... Vladimir is actually holding it differently according to common shooting doctrine... Typically, you actually hold the blade in one hand. sharp side up (Duh) with your thumb pushed up against the hilt. After that, it is a matter of just not blowing your finger tips off. It hurts your thumb almost as much as it does to hold the bolt handle closed on a Ruber 10/22 and fire a round... That makes Vladimir's way a little easier on the fingers... Nothing like having a recoiling knife pointed at you to keep your concentration! Thanks for the pics Roma- -C |

Be more interesting if it were a .410 shotshell in that Knife.

Wood may look old"ish" but it looks very evil too. In fact, so evil that I ordered my SEAKII with wood. I will post pics when I get it from ORF. |

Looks like Russias best should be sporting higher quality weapons. Don't get me wrong, I sure as hell wouldn't want to be on the business end of those guys guns, but some of them look either pieced together, older than sin or just prototype weapons that never should have made it out of R&D.
Compare the weapons they have vs pretty much anything the Germans use. I'll take German weapons over that lot any day. Ok all you AK freaks, open season on me starts now. Edited to add: Really great pics by the way, I have the highest respect for those guys....some of the worlds best ass kickers without question. |

OK, I'll bite.... but some of them look either pieced together, older than sin or just prototype weapons that never should have made it out of R&D. Hmmm, you mean like the M-16 platform??? -C |

I'm going to agree with chamberlin here. Some look a little rough, but the AK74s in general seem to be the main weapon. And those look extremely well maintained. Man, I'd love to have a standard issue AK74. Certainly alot nicer than most M16s I've seen. Course these guys are the elite, so I'd expect them to have nicer equipment. Either way, sweet pics.

Damn! I woul dlike ot have a bayonet that shoots a round for my AK's!
I wonder what caliber it is? |
|

I sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo want one of those bullet proof helmets.

I like what they did, but not sure why they had go right between the 9mm and 7.62x25 already existing. Type: Double Action Caliber 9x21mm SP-10, SP-11, SP-12 Overall length 195 mm Weight loaded 1180 g Magazine capacity 18 rounds Effective range: 200 meters Muzzle Velocity: 420 m/s Initially this gun was designed to meet Russian Army requirements for a high capacity pistol with effective range of no less than 50 meters. To achieve such characteristics, a new cartridge was developed - SP-10 (9x21) with AP steel core bullets, designed to deal with targets in bulletproof vests or hiding in cars etc (capable of near to 100% successful penetration of 30 layers of Kevlar plus up to 2.8mm titanium plate at 100 meters). When, in the mid-1990s, Russian Army lost interest in this gun in the favor of the 9x19mm developments, some Russian Law-enforcement agencies picked up this gun, and in 1996 it was adopted by FSB ( Federal Security Service, a part of the former KGB) and some other agencies. The development of this pistol and ammunition for it continued into the 21st century, and, in 2003, its improved version was finally adopted by the Russian Government for military and police use as the SPS - Samozaryadnyj Pistolet Serdjukova - Serdyukov Self-loading pistol. Originally known as "Gyurza", or as SR-1 "Vektor" (in FSB service), this pistol had been developed by the designer Piotr Serdyukov at TSNIITOchMash (Central Research and Development Institute of Precision Machine Building, in Klimovsk city, Russia). At the present time this pistol is used by the various FSB and FSO (Russian state VIP protection service) troops. The SPS is a short recoil operated, locked breech pistol. The slide to barrel locking is achieved by the tilting locking piece, located under the barrel, much like the Walther P38 or Beretta 92. The return spring is located around the barrel. Frame is made from steel upper part and the polymer grip and the trigger guard. Slide is made of steel. Double action trigger featured automatic Glock-like trigger safety, plus internal firing pin safety and the automated grip safety. No manual safeties are provided on the gun. Until the very recent production guns, SR-1 also lacked the slide stop. The external hammer can be put on the half-cock position for increased safety. It must be noted, that the DA mode will fork only if the hammer is on half-cock. The gun is fed using steel, double stack magazines that hold 18 rounds of 9x21 mm ammo. 9x21mm ammunition now available in basic Armour Piercing form, as well as with expanding increased stopping power bullets, non-ricocheting training bullets, and some other types. The one downside of this ammo is that it is very expensive, at least now, having cost several times more than of any commercially available 9x19mm ammo. I had the chance to inspect this gun (pictured above), during September, 2003, but not fired it yet. In my opinion, the grip is just too big for shooter with average palms. The grip safety also may play a dirty trick with the shooter, since it may not be disengaged if the gun held improperly during the stress situation, so, many FSB field operatives simply block this safety off by some sort of scotch tape. Sights are somewhat tiny. But, otherwise, the SPS is a fine and very powerful close combat weapon, that could be used as well as defensive, and as offensive weapon, especially in the room and car search scenarios, where single-hand controllability and good penetration of the round are welcome. |

Again, please see my post above... -C |

It is indeed .30 cal, but it is not an AK-47 cartridge.....that would seriously be a little hard to hang on to. It is an SP series silent cartridge, piston driven, gases and sound stay in the case, low velocity AK bullet (143/122 gr.) quite unique in the world of firearms... it is also used in the PSS pistol, and the older SM-4 pistol. There are 3 known variants of this cartridge. -C |

I think only a few of them are. The cost of going to a new rifle and the war are slowing this down from what I understand.
|
|
No need for AN-94
The AK-74 versions and the good'ol AKM does the job there just fine |
|
(capable of near to 100% successful penetration of 30 layers of Kevlar plus up to 2.8mm titanium plate at 100 meters).
huh??? a pistol round that will sail thru 30 layers of kevlar AND a .110" ti plate...AT ONE HUNDRED METERS???? pardon my skepticism, but a 9mm that does that is coming mighty close to the .50 beowolf! |
|
There you go again Campy, tempting me to build that .50 Beowulf RPK . |
|
|
|
Those helmets will stop a 7.62 X 39 shot to the face! Not for every day use for sure. But I would liek to have one. Your neck would never be the same after the impact, but at least you would live. |
|
|
They should test and see how much it would stop, I would like to see the helmet vs. 50 cal BMG from a Ma Duece from about 10 yards away. |
