Controversial opinion time, I am not a fan of Russian weaponry. But I am a fan of a good machine pistol, and that’s the other thing, over the years there has been much debate about the proper classification of this firearm, is it a submachinegun, a personal defense weapon, or a machine pistol? Who the hell knows, take your pick.
Now there is one unique feature this weapon possesses that I’ve never seen before on a machine gun. The rate of fire can be adjusted! Maxing out at a fast 1,000 rounds per minute to a not as fast 850 rounds per minute. Honestly though, you’re still gonna burn through 20 rounds in no time. Still a cool feature though.

I’ll admit it’s a ton of fun to use at the range, but that wire stock loves to slip off my shoulder and I would not trust my life with it.
It was a coin toss between this or that PP-2000 but I’ve got a feeling I would have the same opinion about that weapon too.
Now if you want to talk about a fine Soviet SMG, I would kill to get my hands on a PPSH-41.

Hahaha! Yeah the coat hanger stock's a pain to deal with I hear. Still... there's always modification if needed. Then again, the cool factor one of these gives off is unmatched. I could only imagine the envy you got at the range! Even if it's 32 acp.
Well of course the WW2 era Soviet guns are as solid and beautiful as it gets, that goes without saying hehehe. I own an AKM myself of the Polish variety (not WW2, I know but...close enough, give or take), when it comes to rugged reliability and simplicity, I think the Soviets had a leg up on us. But! That's just my opinion.
Either way, these old cold war era pieces are a blast

Well, finding the rifle itself won't be too hard. The real trick will be the ammo. Its .45-70, but it has to be a black powder load. Modern .45-70 generates too much pressure and can cause the barrel and/or chamber to rupture. I got lucky, when I got the rifle I also got 250 rounds of ammo and a bayonet.
