They've lost their heads. The Strizh or whatever is a brand spanking new, unproven design and from a company that makes the god awful double barreled 1911. Supposedly they will be adopting it within a few months, talk about cramming a log of field testing in.

I would take my makarov over this new thing any day.

Interisting. I find it hard to belive hte russians of all people are adopting a relitivly untested weapon. It will be interisting to see how this turns out. In my opnion the makarov was long over due for replacement. Though it is a nice little pistol.

Looks like a Glock screwed a Hi-Point and this was the bastard child.
