The operating speed of the Kalashnikov assault rifle has been increased by five seconds. This was achieved by Valery Sosnin, a former watchmaker from Tula.
To speed up the weapon, a trigger mechanism was created with instantaneous bolt release and a convenient safety location. The development was tested on a special stand with simulated different loads.
The results showed that the standard mechanism of the assault rifle can withstand up to 10,000 shots without visible wear. The new mechanism mastered five times more.
The new system is also easier to use. Now there is no need to switch the safety from automatic to single mode. All parts are easy to replace in seconds, they are assembled in one block.
The developer hopes that his invention will attract the attention of gunsmiths.
Earlier www1.ru reported that "Kalashnikov"will manufacture a batch of modernized AK-308 for foreign customers.
