Kalashnikov USA KR-9S 9mm 16.33" Bbl Side Folding Rifle w/Faux Suppressor Barrel Shroud & (2) 30rd Mags KR-9SKalashnikov USAsets a new standard for Pistol Caliber Carbines with theKP-9 a versatile AK-style PCCbased on the Vityaz Submachinegun. The Vityaz was designed at the request of Russian Federal Police forces to address the terminal ballistics issues faced by weapons like the AK-74u and other short-barreled rifles chambered with full-power rifle cartridges. Just like its Russian counterpartthe KP-9 takes its design from a variety of different firearms. One of the most obvious weapons the KP-9 is based on is theAK-pattern rifle evident in the weapon's overall appearance and anAK-style recoil spring. The core operating system however differs significantly from the AK-family of weapons incorporating ablowback systemrather than a gas piston system. This design was made possible by replacing the gas components of the AK with a bolt carrier that carries the extra weight of the AK's gas piston reminiscent of the telescoping bolt design used by the Uzi submachinegun. Finally the KP-9's magazine is based largely off thecurved double-feed magazineassociated with the WWII-ear PPSH submachinegun. This magazine design was chosen due to the sheer reliability and is enhanced with an ultra-durable polymer/steel construction as well as a specially designed feed ramp to accommodate the use of jacketed hollow point (JHP) ammunition.The result is a simple yet robust operating system with an incredibly reliable magazine. Testing conducted by Kalashnikov USA proved the KP-9 was capable of accepting a wide variety of cartridges and a 20000 round torture test with a full-auto variant demonstrated the KP-9's utter reliability.In addition to its unique design and extreme dependability the KP-9 offers a considerable range of user-friendly features. The bolt is outfitted with anout-of-battery safety mechanismto ensure the weapon will not fire unless the bolt is fully closed and the Uzi-inspired bolt helps reduce both recoil and carbon fouling. The KP-9'shinged dust-coveris equipped with apicatinny rail giving the user virtually unlimited options for mounting optics and retains optic zeroing even after cover is opened. The 16-inch barrel is topped with afaux-suppressorto give the weapon a distinct look and better balance but this can be replaced with any muzzle device that uses 1/2x28" threads. Furthermore the KP-9 features asmooth 2-stage triggerfor precise shot placement and askeletonized Vityaz-style folding stockprovides greater long range capabilities.Features of the Kalashnikov USA KP-9:Based on the renowned Russian Vityaz SubmachinegunUzi-style blowback operated telescoping bolt designPPSH-style curved double-feed polymer/steel magazineAK-style recoil-spring and overall profileOut-of-battery safety mechanism prevents weapon from firing unless bolt is completely closedHinged dust-cover with picatinny railFaux suppressor - balances weapon and gives a unique look can be replaced with any 1/2x28" muzzle deviceSmooth 2-stage triggerVityaz-style folding stock
