PKSK Carabiner - 10
An additional constructive condition is that when using this type of weapon there is no shooting in automatic mode with a holder capacity of no more than 10 cartridges.
PKSK-10 is a short-barreled carbine, which is equipped with various security forces and detective agencies, along with the chop. For the first time this type of weapon was demonstrated during the exhibition “Security-98”, during which high ratings of this type of weapon were obtained by experts.
The production of this type of service armament is organized at the machine-building enterprise of Zlatoust by the production company “Weapon Production”, which is engaged in the manufacture of various types of sporting and service products used as weapons.
There are a number of rather contradictory opinions on how to properly identify these weapons, like a “submachine gun” or “short barrel carbine.” Opinions diverge, but in terms of their functions, this is more a carbine than a pistol. Let us dwell on the “short-haired carbine” variant. This sample was the result of the refinement of the pistol - machine gun PP - 71 "Cedar". Changes occurred both in the ammunition, (the ammunition 9x17K was used) and the exterior. The cage capacity has undergone a change; the shot production mechanism and the receiver barrel box have become structurally different. The shutter of the product is of a free type; during operation it slides along the guide channels of the receiver box. The mechanism for producing a shot of a hammer type is located on a base that is easily disassembled. The clip latch and the reload lever are located on the left for the convenience of most shooters.
To create a certain comfort in the production of shots at targets that are at medium and long distances, there is a folding metal butt. Sighting device is made in an unregulated version of the combined type. When an unused butt is used, the aiming is conducted through a rectangular slot. With the use of a weapon with the butt folded down, the sight automatically switches from the mechanical to the diopter version, thus achieving shooting accuracy, and the aiming is noticeably improved. The design of the sighting mechanism allows this service weapon to change the sight, both vertically and horizontally.
The safety checkbox is located to the right of the receiver box and, if necessary, “locks” the trigger and the bolt carrier. At the end of the ammunition in the cage triggered delay bolt carrier, which feeds up the tooth of the dispatch cage. The re-cocking lever is located on the left side of the product.
The trigger mechanism is made in an easily removable version, when turning and removing the safety lever-bracket, it is easily separated. Structurally, it is assumed to conduct firing only single shots.
.When a shot is fired, the barrel channel of the carbine is closed with a bolt.
The button to connect the clip is on the left side of the product.
A ramrod is mounted under the barrel of the product, which serves only to visually distinguish the service article from the PP-71 Kedr or Klin military weapons.

A few words about the operation. Short carbine in the study and application is simple. Wearing it can be carried out in a hidden manner on a belt or a special holster, which is supplied in the product set.
The model range of portable carbines in service armament is still represented by only one PKKS-10: This product allows you to fire at targets more accurately than short-barreled classic samples, which plays a big role in conducting mobile patrols and guarding service objects with a long security guard route. Visually, this type of service weapon is clearly different from gas weapons, and the appearance, similar to military weapons, can serve as a deterrent for violators who decide to encroach on private property.
