I bet that's a really interesting article...if you can read Russian.

At the request of Esquire expert forensic center Interior Ministry, Colonel Igor Ignatiev praised the skill of clandestine WMD seized from criminals by a homemade sawn-off shotguns, pistols and revolvers.

The submachine gun made by skilled craftsmen in the early nineties at the Kiev factory "Arsenal".Excellent quality: the butt fuse translator fire from automatic to a single, built-in silencer. There is even a moderator pace shots.

Edge, from which the serial killer Anatoly Onopriyenko shot nearly all of his victims. Redesigned with a hunting rifle eighties, stolen from rural kin. Classic weapon for close combat in the far from it a little disconcerting: because of the shortened barrel shot fly away.

Poorly thought-out design that was supposed to be a sub-machine gun. Literally shatters into pieces when you take it in hand. The designer was clearly limited to the materials at hand, and would not know the technology. Shop too much: he needs a very strong spring, but then the last cartridge is guaranteed to jam.

Not a bad idea, but poor execution. Jammer will definitely not work. Shop rests on questionable screws and rivets. However, one feels that the author has a lot of thought, be smart about it and was on the right track. Right - in terms of design, but not in the way he was going to use the result.

The submachine gun. The author has decided to bring a lot of their ideas in the gun making. To eject spent cartridges then created a separate element, similar to the one that has a machine gun "Maxim".But unfortunately (or fortunately), this device does not work. It has a lot of welding, coarsely processed parts. We tried to run it, but could not - not fully understood even how he has to shoot.

Chechen "dogs" - a simple but effective weapon. Made, as far as I know, at the cannery. Judging by the serial numbers of such manufactured several thousand. The trunk of poor quality, it is often jammed bullet, so it can be unscrewed and put in another. In Ukraine, such submachine guns seized most in the Odessa, Donetsk and Chernivtsi regions, where Chechen criminal gangs were active.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9223.jpg
An early model of the "dogs", made by an obscure civil factory. The sample time of the first war in Chechnya. In the second there were already using professional weapons entirely different level.

Armenian submachine gun K6-92 since the early nineties and the civil war in Nagorno-Karabakh. The prototype of "dogs", a convenient partisan weapon that is not effectively in an offensive or defensive battle, and when you need to approach quietly, "uncover" shoot out and leave. In Ukraine, such seized about 800 units.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9231.jpg
Creatively rethinking Mosin rifle, or just barely enough. Homemade wire butt, couch, front sight on the end of the barrel. The classic criminal weapon for concealed carry - and then shortened barrel.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9234.jpg
Revolver seized from criminals from Nikolaev, looting, robberies and murders in the late nineties. Very well done. The trigger is easy to work, quality rifling in the barrel.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9237.jpg
Revolver with a long barrel and a convenient line of sight. Performed at a high level. From it you can shoot a good distance, though better use in the melee. It is a compact 22-gauge (5.6 mm), so the drum is designed not for the classic six and ten rounds of ammunition.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9242.jpg
Rough imitation of a Makarov pistol (PM). Fuse No body is kept at a cog. But visually the copy looks very good: in the dark or from a distance can easily be taken for the PM.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9244.jpg
On the surface - an imitation of the Austrian pistol Glock, in fact - single-shot weapon, designed chambered .22. The author tried, but the result looks pretty funny. Although, if you shoot out of it, is no laughing matter, but the work is still clumsy.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9250.jpg
Pen-gun (pistol simplified design). It works like this: Charge the cartridge, manual shutter lever taps, let go - there's a shot. The liner also have to extract yourself. A very dangerous thing for a shooter, if not in time with the shutter release your finger, you can lose it.

http://www.esquireyearone.com.ua/upload/photofeature10_weapons_9249.jpg
Pen gun with a handle for convenience. Barrel is threaded, but no sense in it: make any cuttings to stabilize the bullet in flight, and even the theory of this design is not fired.

Pen gun with enlarged government. There is a trigger, barrel welded to the handle, convenient gate with levers for right and left hand. It shoots much further than five meters (normal range of fire pistol handle).

It looks scarier than it actually is. Dimensions impressive, and only one cartridge and charged manually. Perhaps the author was originally planned to do a pistol .38, but then put the barrel of the 22nd - for the cartridges that were at hand. Painted it, put a soul.

Looks rich, a lot of markings: some rooms, the stigma of a crown, inscription «Aleco» and "1969." Made with a claim to the factory version, and done well. Visually simulates the "Walther" model P38.

Self-loading pistol "under the revolver." Very competent performance. Above this is clearly an instance of a long hard - there is even a magazine tube, spring for custom designs that are rare. Fundamentally no different from the real weapons.

The old-fashioned model. Charges are prepared by hand from the gunpowder and bullets wad: author did not have modern cartridges, only the components, so he began to create. To reload a weapon, you need a few minutes, so it is not suitable for fighting, but rather for hooligan gop-stop.

Even after the translation it reads like Russian without the Cyrillic alphabet!

I like this one:

pretty accurate if you ask me......oh damm....I just went there!

Pretty interesting designs

Some day we'll be reading a similar story about our country. Some of them look Bladerunner-ish. The SKS bullpup on arms list would have fit in fine

Some day we'll be reading a similar story about r country.


ONLY If our side gives up.
