Izhevsk Mechanical Plant (IMZ), part of the "Kalashnikov" concern, has announced the release of an exclusive batch of MR-512 pneumatic rifles with unique engraving. Each of the ten rifles in this limited series features a unique image of a dragon, made on the receiver in the technique of relief engraving, and has no analogues. The works were performed both by classical methods of engraving, and with the use of filling with special colored paints for metal processing, as well as inlaying with precious metals.
To create the exclusive series, the stock from the MR-161 "Manul" product was used with minor modifications. This is a high-quality walnut, treated with linseed oil or varnish, which favorably emphasizes its noble wood pattern. Engravers, designers and woodcarvers of IMZ have developed an original grid pattern, which is applied to the stock using a laser.
Each rifle is equipped with a wide Picatinny rail, which is a novelty for MR-512 pneumatic rifles manufactured by "Izhmash". In addition, each rifle comes with a passport indicating the names of the designer, engraver, woodcarver, as well as the individual number and engraving pattern. The first products received serial numbers from 000001 to 000010.
Work on the "dragon" series lasted three months. The company notes that the plant's specialists continue to master "new techniques for applying unique patterns to metal".
Today, the plant is ready to produce products with artistic engraving in limited batches and according to individual orders.
