The real name of "PMKMS"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Vis]

Pmkms stands for "Pistolet Maszynowy Kalasznikowa Modernizowany Skladany" which translates to Machine Pistol Kalashnikov Modernized Folding. The name implies Machine Pistol and was used in 1950"s. The designation is similar to
German "MPK". Later on they changed it to "kbk AKMS" which stands for "Krotki Bojowy Karabin Automatyczny Kalasznikowa Modernizowany Skladany" which translates to Short Battle Carbine (or rifle) Automatic Kalashnikov Modernized Folding. It's obvious that AK is not a pistol. Why they named it PM is beyond me but we know the commies were stupid.
PMKMS- wrong name,
kbk AKMS- correct name..............:D







Edited to correct spelling:eek:
