Large-caliber assault revolver RSH-12. Infographics

27
RSH-12 is one of the most weighty revolvers I've ever heard of. It was developed at the beginning of the 2000-s at the branch of the Tula KBP: the Central Design Bureau of Sports and Hunting weapons under the same cartridge 12,7х55 mm as the assault rifle ASH-12. The most powerful assault revolver in the world.

      And what for?

      “The most powerful revolver!” - yes, cal. 0,45-0,50 guns have already been made for a long time. Moreover, the technology has been worked out and the quality is excellent. And as for reloading an assault weapon, the indicator should be among the first. Change the store either with an automatic pistol, or this "super-weapon" request hi

    Yesterday I said that probably the next article about this gun laughing That's what I want to say. I read comments about the line of these products. And I constantly see “what the hell, delirium.” Specialists write comments. I don’t argue more clearly. But I want to tell them and everyone else. If in Russia it was allowed to buy weapons as in the USA (this is not a reason for further discussion), then I personally would buy this gun and an assault rifle and a rifle. And I do not care about someone's opinion there. That is, I bought it with pleasure. And if this weapon appears on sale in the USA, it will be scattered from the shelves with terrible force. Personally, I repeat myself, I want to acquire such weapons.

      And yet, what's the point of it? There are few charges, cartridges are not for weapons held and controlled with one hand.

      Of course, I will not sign up for assault weapons specialists, but I have not a modest question - how are you going to carry a 2,2-kg gun and almost the size of it, and why do you need such destructive power in your pocket? After all, the victim of your bad mood may still not be identified later ... Do you play computer shooters?

        Health allows. And personal physiological data. laughing(growth) What do you care about my Wishlist and opportunities? I’ll drive to the shooting range and in the case.

      One small observation of our barrel is made at a lower point and it will be more comfortable to shoot from it than from a classic revolver hi I don’t want this, but I would shoot for sure.

    An assault pistol must have ammunition of at least 16-18 rounds, five rounds of laughter, and a weight of 2.2 kg, this is an extraordinary weight for a pistol. With such a caliber and weight, who can shoot from this miracle. For these purposes, the Serdyukov Gyurz pistol is best suited (ATP, CP1, GRAU 6P53 index).
    And under this caliber, an AS-12 assault rifle with ammunition of 10-20 rounds has already been created.

    Confused by video ads. Bullets weighing 700 grams (!)?. From the wiki: "The .500 S&W Magnum is a large caliber pistol cartridge created under the Cor-Bon trademark in collaboration with the Smith & Wesson engineering team for use in the Smith & Wesson Model 500 revolver." Cartridge weight - 700 grains, approximately 45,36 grams. Bullet weight 19 grams. You can see it here http://maleglance.blogspot.ru/2014/12/500-s-magnu

    TTX not complete.
    Yes, I understand that 2,2 kg. serious weight. but what about the armor penetration of this revolver? it is possible to use it when releasing hostages - because there, as a rule, a lot of shots are not fired and you have to hit for sure, given the weight of the bullet the stopping effect of such ammunition should be more than sufficient, even for the enemy in body armor.
    there will probably be a niche for such a revolver, the main thing is that they would not be armed with all special forces.

      All heavy pistols have a butt, and then there is such a caliber, I don’t understand why it is needed. And what will be the return when fired. As I wrote above, this product is much more practical.

        But does such an elephant need armor penetration? He, along with body armor, will smear the recipient along the nearest wall.
        Although I can’t deny it is a bad gun, with such a weight you won’t especially swing.

      Yes Kama what a thing! What you like and buy! How much can one "authoritatively" decide for people .. People themselves want to decide what to buy for their money.

      Watch carefully.

    Anyone who does not understand why such a gun is needed for personal use, I advise you to shoot from something like that, at worst from DShK or NSV, the feeling is indescribable. But in the army region it is not clear why it is needed, in the police, and even if with a rubber shot, it’s understandable as an alternative to pompom.

    A normal weapon - a cartridge is not so powerful ... something like a Russian rifle ...- you can completely hold it ... and if you put a handle on the lower bar of the picatinny rail then it’s generally shine ... I’d take it into the house .... and even storming the door is very convenient to make ...

    I wonder why a cartridge with a bronze bullet? Increased stopping effect due to deformation upon impact? Or how?

    What for ? What is the tactical niche of this product? It would be better to make a pistol with a polymer frame under a small-caliber cartridge of high power and the ability to fire bursts of 3 shots. OTs-23 “Dartik” is too weak for an assault pistol, although it has a magazine for 24 rounds and can shoot in short bursts. Need something like this

    Or this

    The weight of the pistol / revolver should not exceed 1 kg without cartridges, and the length should be 220 mm, otherwise wearing it loses all meaning. 2,2 kg and 357 mm length - these are the dimensions of the equipped compact PP-2000, which will be much more effective than this "masterpiece" of the arms industry. Hit in the enemy several bullets from the PP is much more effective than a single subsonic bullet 12,7 mm.
