Hunting with a machine gun

83


Carabiners from Kalashnikov assault rifles and PPSh, Mosin rifle, and for those who wish - the Maxim machine gun, firing single. Market of the so-called martial weapons has grown in recent years by half, but the State Duma intends to ban fencing in the near future.

Small, on 30 thousand people, the town of Vyatskiye Polyany in the Kirov region may lose its two city-forming enterprises. The fact is that the Molot-Arms plant, the successor of the PCA (Shpagin submachine gun), famous for the Vyatsko-Polyansky machine-building plant in the war years, and the Hammer Armz (an enterprise founded just five years ago) are the largest in Russia sellers of weapons, converted from combat to civilian. And at the autumn session as part of the package of "antiterrorist" amendments, the State Duma is going to adopt a law prohibiting enterprises from "fencing off" military weapons, in May the bill was passed in first reading.

“We will lose jobs,” the leadership of Hammer Weapon scares. The company employs more than 2 thousand people, about half of all products - civilian weapons.

“For us, this law will actually mean collapse,” laments Ravil Nurgaleev, the director of Hammer Armz, lamenting that there are more weapons produced at his weapons factory than combat weapons. The former veterinarian and head of the design bureau of sports and hunting weapons, Ravil Nurgaleev founded the company in 2011, not far from the old “Hammer”; last year, he tried to ban the Nurgaleev plant from using his name in the title, terminated the dealership agreement with the younger namesake and complained about it to the FAS. However, according to Ravil Nurgaleev, "this was the work of some employees who did not coordinate their actions with the management," and today Hammer Armz sells its own products and Hammer Weapons.

Now two players occupy half of the market for unarmed weapons: according to expert estimates, this market is about 150-180 thousand units per year, Vyatka-Polyansky factories, according to their management, sell 3-3,5 thousand units per month.

The control package "Hammer-Arms" belongs to the state corporation "Rostec", and it also owns the third player of a specific market - the plant named after Degtyarev (ZiD), one of the oldest (opened in 1916 year) weapons and the largest industrial enterprise of the city of Kovrov in the Vladimir region. "Our plant in 2012 received a shipment of outdated military small arms to the Ministry of Defense free of charge. We incurred considerable expenses for the organization of specially equipped warehouses and the delivery of tens of thousands of weapons, developed design documentation for converting weapons to civilians, and issued certificates. At the enterprise additional jobs have been created where workers are currently undergoing training. The adoption of the amendment will lead to a reduction in jobs and will deprive the plant of both income and to cover losses incurred ", - say in the marketing service ZiDa.

Swords on plowshares

For weapons factories, the conversion of military weapons into civilian is a profitable business. Worn out, obsolete and defective weapons that can be used as "raw materials" in military warehouses millions of units, it is much easier and more profitable to protect them than to produce civilian weapons from scratch - 90% products are ready, you just need to cut off a few parts and brew a number of holes: remove the ability to conduct automatic fire, leaving only a single, and the capacity of the store is limited to ten rounds.

For weapons factories, the conversion of military weapons into civilian is a profitable business.

Since the beginning of the 2010s, the production and sale of such weapons has grown significantly due to the fact that in addition to traditional alterations from the Kalashnikov assault rifle (hunting carbines of the Vepr series manufactured by the Hammer-Weapons, self-loading carbines MA-136 Hammer Armz) rarities of the pre-revolutionary and Soviet era appeared on sale. Since 2012, ZiD has been making the SVT-O carbine based on the Tokarev rifle of 1940, a year later the Hammer-Weapon and ZiD released the carbine from the Shpagin submachine gun. The Hammer-Weapon began to make a three-line Mosin rifle (it was used in the Russian and then in the Red Army from 1891 until the end of World War II) as multiple-shot carbines KO 91/30, KO 91 / 30M and OP-SKS from a self-loading carbine Simonov (adopted by the end of World War II, was used by the Soviet army in most wars of the XX century). It is also produced by ZiD. And since 2014 you can buy - and they’re buying! - a civilian version of the Degtyarev machine gun of 1927 (ZiD production) and even the legendary Maxim machine gun (it is produced by ZiD and Hammer-Weapon). At Hammer-Weapons, we were informed that the sale of weapons having historical value, are growing steadily, and from 15% to 20% of tainted products is exported, mainly to the United States and Germany.

Cheap and shoots


The most common form of alteration of military weapons - civilian version of the Kalashnikov

The reason for the popularity of alterations is that such weapons are significantly cheaper than models of the new assembly. Hobby citizens can talk about it for hours. “See: Saiga 9 carbine (Kalashnikov concern. ——“ Money ”) costs 28-40 thousand rubles in the basic configuration. And Zidovsky PCA-41 for the same cartridge (9х19 Luger) - 23-27 thousand. RUB. ", - explains the chairman of the board of the All-Russian public organization" The Right to Arms "Igor Shmelev. "I have 80% of weapons - converted from combat," said Vladimir Demidko, amateur collector, municipal deputy of the Mitino district. "This is a weapon for a standard cheap cartridge that is produced in large quantities, and high-quality - good samples can be found even up to 10 thousand. rub.".

Amateurs claim that the weapon, which was originally produced as a combat one, is higher in the production requirements: as a rule, there is an employee at the plant who reports not to the enterprise, but to a military unit of the Ministry of Defense and is responsible for quality control of the weapons produced. “The trunks with the army’s past get more accurate, but they shoot further - I’m telling you, as a hunter,” says Yevgeny Petrenko, a hunter from the Pavlovo-Posad district of the Moscow region.

Sales of weapons of historical value are growing steadily, and from 15% to 20% of foreign products are exported, mainly to the USA and Germany

Since most of the alterations of military weapons fall on rifled specimens, and it is allowed to acquire it only to people who have experience with possessing smooth-bore weapons from five years, their main consumer is hunters. "At first, I wanted to buy a Czech rifle for 30 thousand rubles. However, because of the fall of the ruble, the weapon became more expensive, and now it costs at least 70 thousand, not to mention the prices of imported ammunition for rifled weapons, the price of which has completely taken off to Heaven, "- says Dmitry Alekseev from Novgorod. Now a suitable option for Alekseev is the Russian carbine "Tiger", a civilian version of the legendary Soviet SVD rifle.

Sellers of weapons of nationality claim that it enjoys special demand in remote areas of Siberia and the North, because there hunting is often not so much a hobby as work: people hunt for food or are engaged in commercial hunting, for example, they get furs to sell it to furriers.

Dear shooting


Shooting sports in Russia is gaining popularity - for example, several tens of thousands of people are engaged in practical shooting.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, on 1 January 2016, the 4,5 million Russian owners of weapons 6,6 million units of equipment are in the hands of 2011. Before 5,2, there were more gun owners - XNUMX million people, but with the tightening of requirements for the acquisition of traumatics, the number of people decreased, but the weapons on their hands became more: hunters and collectors continue to acquire it. The ban on fencing will affect many buyers: according to the PNO chairman Igor Shmelev, the majority of Russian civilian and service weapons are designed and manufactured using a base or components of military weapons. “We don’t have imported weapons of this category, there’s nothing to replace it. Because of this, prices will rise not only for civilian weapons produced from combat, but also for other types of weapons of similar caliber, and even for used weapons,” Shmelev predicts .

Among the "victims" along with hunters and collectors will be athletes, for example, fans of practical shooting. This discipline, including shooting from a pistol, a smooth-bore gun and a carbine, appeared, by the standards of sport, quite recently - the first world championship was held in 1975 year. In Russia, the sport is very popular - today in the country 72 regional federations and 150 practice shooting clubs are registered. According to estimates of the Ministry of Sports, active athletes are about 24 thousand people, and there are several times more citizens who are fond of practical shooting at the amateur level. The anti-armament initiative may hinder the development of this sport, Igor Nemov, deputy chairman of the Moscow Region Practical Shooting Federation, said: “Although the shooters use only new weapons, mainly imported ones, cheap cheap samples are used for primary training and instilling the skills of safe weapons handling. Russia's first program to re-equip shooting sports, to provide it with high-quality weapons, ammunition and equipment for the Russian . But the present-day roduction deputies initiatives go against it - because we simply deprive them of inventory. "

Trunks with an army past get more accurate, and shoot further - I tell you, as a hunter,

Private security companies will also get away from the ban - most of their weapons are also made on the basis of combat or of its components. “There will be a shortage of armaments in the market, and many private security firms simply cannot rent a weapon from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Interior Ministry’s problems may begin with the issue of service weapons for rent. Naturally, we will suffer losses,” explains the commercial director of AKM Group "Alexey Shchedrin.

Explaining the ban on the protection of weapons by the fight against terrorism is rather stupid, said Vladimir Gutenev, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Industry. According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, 6,6, that is, 589%, was involved in the commission of crimes in the last year from 0,009 million, in the overwhelming majority of cases, it was poaching. “Moreover, the law does not specify what will happen to the converted weapons that are already in their hands,” says Gutenev. “The law does not regulate withdrawing it from the population, so I don’t see any direct consequences in the fight against terrorism.” However, according to Gutenev, complete freedom in acquiring and carrying weapons, such as, for example, in most US states, cannot be introduced in Russia. “We all remember numerous tragedies with shooting in American schools,” explains the deputy.

Strangely enough, even among citizens close to the weapons environment there are supporters of a certain restriction on the sale of weapons, for example, Mikhail Degtyarev, the editor-in-chief of the Kalashnikov magazine. "I think that it’s safe on the streets not where everything is with pistols, but where there are no pistols. Take, for example, American statistics - this year in Chicago alone six people died from firearms on Veterans Day last year “Fourteen,” he says. Opponents of the weapon cite the case of Russian school shooting as an argument - February 2014, Moscow school N263. The 15-year-old tenth-grader, waiting for his parents to go to work, pulled out a Browning sports carbine and Tikka rifle from his father’s safe, went to school with them, killed a geography teacher and took a classmate 21 hostage. During the detention, the teenager also shot one policeman and wounded the second. The student was recognized mentally insane - he was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.

And yet, despite the thickening atmosphere, enterprises engaged in arms protection rely on the lobbying capabilities of the powerful Rostec: the conversion of military weapons into civilian is beneficial to both the Ministry of Defense and Rostekhovsky enterprises.

“Millions, and in the case of some items, tens of millions of weapons of decommissioned weapons have been stored in military warehouses for decades without losing their properties,” says Mikhail Degtyarev. “Their protection and maintenance in proper technical condition are not cheap. Periodically, during some the technical inspection of the weapon is re-sorted and falls into the category to be destroyed - it is she who goes into civilian rework, and the Ministry of Defense receives money, since the interested enterprises are ready for pons to pay in the case of recycling pays the state itself -. and, moreover, much as arms must be protected, to take the place of utilization and any movement of weapons -. it is very expensive and it is difficult not to carry the potatoes. " Excluding logistics and security, the disposal of a single weapon under pressure costs 250-300 rubles, the destruction of one cartridge costs 15 rubles. The figures are small, but in terms of lots of tens and hundreds of thousands of expenses are tangible.

    Needless to say, not a word about the legality of this weapon, the prohibitive laws of the state of Illinois and the circumstances of the incident. It’s so simpler: It’s one thing when you scare everyone with such deaths and say “prohibit and not let go,” another thing if everyone becomes aware that the weapon was originally illegal and a large part of the bodies are the consequences of gangster squabbles. After all, here you understand that this person does not want to disarm the criminals, but to disarm law-abiding citizens. It's like with the massacres in the United States in which they record everything where more than 3 people were killed and are not at all eager to say that a large part of it is gangster showdown.

    As for the prohibition of alterations, there is, as always, the "incredible mind" of our State Duma and their "incredible level of work", but there is also a completely commercial interest of the manufacturers themselves. After all, if weapons are produced in a full cycle, then at each stage of production there is a surcharge by itself, and by itself more people and capacities are employed. This is trite more profitable than first buying a ready-made frame for little money, and then redoing it a little. This is especially true for the rifled one, which is really very little altered.

      Here it would be worth explaining what kind of weapon it says: Keeping a smoothbore can be a very long time and getting it is usually not difficult. The same hunting ticket was simplified and now it is a formality, now there is no hunting minimum, and just came and received. Rifled after this you need to wait 5 years. Further, it is necessary to divide the wearing as a colloquial term and as a legal interpretation: Legally, carrying a weapon is carrying a weapon without a case, in the clear, with a cartridge in the chamber. That is, what is called hidden wearing in the United States. However, we still have transportation: Weapons in a case, assembled, and unloaded. There is one interesting point with this: the law does not prescribe what is uncharged, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, referring to GOST in official answers, says that it is solely the presence of a cartridge in the chamber and setting up a combat platoon, and thus it is not a crime to transport weapons with an adjoining and equipped magazine and / or without fusing.

      That is, the storage of a long barrel is already legal, hidden wearing is de facto legal, so what should be clarified. About the application? Short-bore?

    In traffic accidents and medical errors, hundreds of thousands of people die annually. These are official statistics.
    The weapon is needed. A man with a weapon changes psychologically. He already ceases to be a "dumb brute", he can give an answer. This is what the authorities do not like.
    At the everyday level, after they deal with scumbags, people will become more polite and kinder ..)
    We can say that a man with a weapon is a killer! and other emotions.
    But it is not weapons that kill - man kills.
    The driver is also a potential killer, but he does not go to crush pedestrians.
    The risk of fatal accidents is higher than the risk of being robbed by a drug addict and even more so killed from a gunshot.

      Authorities wear a portrait of Tsar Nicholas in an immortal regiment and hang a tablet of Mannerheim, a fascist,
      only by the fact that the fists itch to beat us slaves, their head ached from the whining of the people. The sword a symbol of power in Russia could have abundantly, but everyone did not have a sword - it was a weapon easier in a hut up to a club. The lack of trust in their own people gives rise to impunity for bandits in the first place, what can a herd break into a wolf corral?

        It was during the reign of Nikolai Aleksandrovich that anyone could buy from a revolver to a rifle. Only after the 1905-1907 rebellion attempt did they stop selling combat rifles and imposed restrictions on the purchase of short barrels (Mauser, etc.) with the permission of the police, and all of them were 7,62 caliber. 2 Long (TT type) is free. Now, regarding the "immortal regiment" Poklonskaya, apparently, proceeded from the fact that our church was ranked NIKOLAYXNUMX as a saint, which means that it was equated to the holy cross. It was the Bolsheviks who started restricting the right to access weapons

      Strongly and completely agree. It is not necessary to prohibit weapons, but to increase the cultural and moral level of citizens. But with this the authorities are always bad, it is easier to ban. In any case, any criminal, if he needs to, will always find the trunk. What is wrong with registered weapons for ordinary citizens, I just do not understand.

    This law is more harmful than useful, because - if, according to their logic, cut weapons are acquired to restore stupidity by terrorists. Any restored weapon is unsuitable for military operations in view of low reliability, only collectors will suffer because the acquired collections will be outlawed and they will be hunted.
    In turn, in order to eliminate leaks of military automatic weapons, it is necessary to review the conditions for their storage, a living example is the case in Vladimir, because a trained group of interested parties should not only disarm a separate green soldier, they can also take a warehouse, an armory in a separate unit, etc. .

        And about the converted military weapons, I have my own opinion. We have been creating dioramas for military patriotic clubs for a long time. As exhibits - deactivated military weapons of the Great Patriotic War (redone for pneumatics) and interiors, including personal items of fighters.
        You do not need to be a great psychologist to understand what is happening in the soul of a boy holding a real PCA or PPS with the stigma of the 1943 release of the year. The weapon is deactivated, but it is now. And before, fighters looked through these sights and cleaned our land of all evil spirits. Take a good look at our guys and you will see their serious eyes.

      not only disarm an individual green fighter, they can also take a warehouse, an armory in a separate unit, etc.


      A very optimistic scenario is when someone will attack and disarm. Alas, weapons from warehouses are not obtained by force, but by money and communications. And when a considerable part has been unloaded from the warehouse, it can catch fire at 6 different ends at the same time and burn up, and there already try to calculate how many weapons were actually left, how many bandits were sold, and how many exploded in a fire.

    And why do the deputies not equate cars with weapons, especially expensive breeds, on which some young people constantly commit murder attempts? In the United States, for example, a criminal's car is an instrument of crime and is subject to confiscation. I am no longer surprised by constant messages like: "He (she) has already committed ... dozens of offenses in intoxication ...
    You think: "Stop!" And who recorded this? And who passed the punishment? And the names of these people ...
    Oh, and these people in power and laws in general cannot be touched. The present ones will easily acquit Chekatilo if he is from a "good" family, but if a five-year-old boy pees on the wheel of a "respected person" ...
    And you say "weapons are in the hands of ordinary citizens." This is scary. An official turns out to be equal to a simple, battered citizen. Equality must be corrected!

    A lot has been written about civilian weapons, but there are no improvements. The media work in one direction and stubbornly give out horror stories about the dangers of these terrible guns. For some reason, they don’t report anything about the dangers of kitchen knives, with which the vast majority of domestic murders are committed. About the dangers of cars, through whose fault 25-30 thousand people die every year, also keep quiet.
    The car is not accused of murder, but the weapon is accused. It means that there is an order for such a shameless lie and the subsequent tightening laws. I’ll say straight-comrades, driving around in armored Mercedes under protection, are afraid of their people and by hook or by crook try to disarm them. , apparently, that social inequality has crossed all permissible boundaries. That is why all the resources of the media, deputies, the Ministry of Internal Affairs are connected, in the hope of forming an "objective public opinion" and at the "workers' request" generally take away all hunting weapons from the population. And how long have these weapons been sold in sporting goods on a hunting ticket and its registration in the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not exist at all. Something I do not remember any showdown with weapons, although in rural areas everyone had them. And hung on a nail without any safes. Let’s then, with the permission of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, sell boots, or televisions, they can also be declared dangerous items.

Stalin was true tyranny, but the hunting rifles were freely sold, and the librarian NS Khrushchev (in hell was his place) began to restrict. So the current authorities continue what you started.

    The position that our legislation takes in relation to the possession of weapons by citizens of the country is openly hypocritical. In this case, as a rule, they press on two circumstances.
    1. There has never been a culture of gun ownership in Russia. This is an outright lie. With some restrictions, the carrying of weapons in Russia has always been allowed. Including firearms. Even the “bloody despot,” as some call him, Stalin, did not forbid the possession and carrying of weapons.
    2. Citizens of our country are not ready to own a weapon for self-defense. (Figuratively speaking, the state a priori considers the citizens of its country ""). At the same time, it is ready to entrust the 18-year-old guy not only with an assault rifle, but also with a tank and control of missiles from the remote control, to protect the existing state system. It's ready to send this guy to war. And when he returns home, he is told that he cannot, due to his moral and intellectual unpreparedness, acquire a weapon for self-defense.
    The reasoning that as a result of the availability of weapons around the country will be a wave of crime will not stand up to criticism at all. If desired, a person can be killed with a kitchen knife or fork. Which, in fact, most often happens during a showdown in a drunken stupor. Firearms mean precise control. And you need to be a complete idiot to commit a crime from a trunk registered in a file cabinet. But in order to prevent weapons from falling into the hands of idiots, the state should already be monitoring.

    Our legislators, policemen, and other representatives of all branches of government are protected by the law and completely legal private security companies armed and having only rights, without any obligations and responsibilities. Well, do not take the same punishment for excommunication. That's just RUSSIAN CITIZENS do not have the right to protection, even children and wives do not have the right to protect, criminal liability is inevitable, even if prevented the murder. Such a reverent attitude towards bandits and criminals only confirms that all these gangs and bandits are necessary for something, and no one in the government plans to destroy them. It is from here that the disarmament of citizens, lest * Allah *, do not * offend * the bandits those whom they attacked. So the collectors were invented for the outlawed bandits and fired policemen, everything for feeding * the injured * from the law.

          Capturing an arms store is possible only in two cases.
          1. The store has a shitty guard. There is nothing to do with the weapon.
          2. Capture - a pre-planned and competently conducted operation. In such a situation, both unarmed and armed people are powerless. Such a development of events can be prevented only through the intelligence work of the relevant authorities, because you cannot put up a checkpoint at every weapons store.
          At the same time, I completely agree with you that unregistered weapons should be withdrawn from circulation. But if a normal law on weapons is adopted, it becomes possible to acquire precisely registered weapons. A person who has committed a crime with a weapon registered in a card index is much easier to track down than someone who has used an unrecorded or ordinary knife. What is wrong if a law is passed according to which a sane citizen of the country who does not have conflicts with the law will be able to acquire weapons to protect his life? Of course, the law should be pretty tough. The purchased pistol should not lie in a linen drawer or shopping bag with potatoes. For example, I am convinced that gun owners must regularly, at least once a month, visit a shooting range or a shooting range, where they learn to use their purchase, and pass certain standards. And if the law is "about carrying weapons", then you will not have to run to the weapons room.

            It is much easier to calculate a person who committed a crime with the help of a weapon registered in a file cabinet than someone who used an unaccounted-for or ordinary knife.


            Here I agree and note a simple thing: The same "Nagans" in the country are like dirt (they have been made in huge quantities since the days of the Empire) and as far as I know they are sold for very little money. The provincial killers have no problem throwing off the old one and buying a new one. The situation with the PM is a little better, the main word here is "a little". A legal short-barreled barn is more expensive, to put it mildly, it is banal financially unprofitable for a criminal to buy it.

    Alas, not in our country. In Russia, weapons cannot be given to citizens, from the point of view of the authorities, because the psychology of an armed person changes. In the vast majority, he becomes more conscientious, less drinking, more intolerant of insults, bullying and outright physical attacks on himself and others. Then it would be possible to forget about the road attacks of the crazed dolboyas on cool cars, and the officials, then - aggressive scum will be shot in the first six months. An armed citizen becomes a completely different person. And which official, and especially the policemen, would like the deprivation of a large part of the monopoly on the use of force? Indeed, from their point of view, a citizen should be stupid (hello USE and Dom-2), be afraid of everything and everyone (officials, policemen, devil ... x "guests" from the south and the authorities tenderly covering these "guests"), unarmed and submissive fate, where officials of all levels consider themselves to be the fate of citizens ...
    Vova, when asked about the legalization of short-barrels in Russia, repeats his favorite mantra with an enviable simplicity: "The Russians are early, they are not yet mature enough, they will kill each other ..." , storage, wearing and use of short-barrels suddenly sharply, in six months or a year, street crime fell by 50-70%. And we, you see, are different ...
    Neither Vova nor his henchmen ever talk about the real numbers of murders in Russia. And according to the research institute of the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation, up to 50 (fifty !!!!!) criminal murders take place in Russia each year, which is several times more than in the United States, where about 315 million weapons are carried by 270 million and where 60% of crimes are stopped by armed citizens. 50 thousand, the population of a decent regional city, every year ...

    Currently, the circulation of weapons is normal. Acquiring legally weapons is quite simple. Speech about the short barrel is special, in my opinion it is necessary to prohibit trauma, and allow the short barrel to people who have owned the long barrel for at least five years under existing conditions. Separately consider the issue of permitting storage at the place of residence and transportation to the venue of the competition or training of the sports short barrels for shooting athletes. It is impossible to forbid weapons, it’s clear that no one will hunt with a machine gun or PPSh, but things are very useful for the collection and military-patriotic clubs. On the contrary, it is necessary to develop a network of shooting facilities for a rifled barrel. (I would have scored more, but I'm tired of poking a finger on the tablet))

    For many years he was a hunter in Russia, and he had a rightly cut dice. Everything is clear with the legislation striving to limit the rights of weapons owners. I do not agree with this categorically. This is a betrayal of their people. How disgusting is the soul when Negroes shoot and praise from Soviet TTs, with svt 40 pimpled teenagers thresh. THE HEAD DOESN'T LAY OUT why a formidable weapon made by the hands of our parents is available to everyone except those to whom it should belong by right. Of course, with PPSh you can’t go hunting like a hazel grouse (and it’s impossible by grafting), but the caliber is rather weak for wild boar, but for collectors and weapon lovers this thing is priceless. The button-teenager, taking the hands of PPSh or Mosinka or Dyagter, suddenly begins to realize that there are things more serious than virtual toys. But there is one thing .. BUT! Weapons must be weapons. And not a model of rubber-gas shot ... With injuries people are always mutilated for no good reason ..... No, really .. I got the barrel, be ready to answer before the law.

    As I see it, there is no problem in the production of the civilian "AKM". Previously, these same "AKM" were taken from arsenals and sawed into civilian weapons, and after the adoption of the law, these weapons will be produced immediately in civilian execution. To be honest, I don't quite understand all this masturbation about "real-combat-weapons", which, according to the law, cannot fire in bursts, and in addition is barbarously "fenced in" and pinned (I am not talking about the specificity of the weapon itself).
    For hunting, military weapons are very conditionally suitable, but for IPSishnikov ... Well, I don’t know, it’s not such a big layer of weapon owners to listen to them.
