Hey guys, take a look at this "Pistol" I got a few weeks ago for fun at the range! Yes, it is classified as a pistol as the barrel is 10" long and the folding stock is locked in the closed position. This is a Polish made firearm and redistributed by InterOrdnance, Charlotte, NC. It shoots the Russian 7.62 x 25 ammo that was very cheap until about a 6-8 months ago and what surplus ammo is available is now sky high! It came with 3 magazines, oiler and cleaning kit for $350 at my LGS. I was no sure how it would operate, but when I took it to the range, it never missed a lick. The accuracy at 25 yds was approximately 4" groups holding it with my hands. I had a blast shooting this one and other folks at the range kept looking and waiting for it to go FA fire. Unfortunantly, it is only SA, but a heck of a lot cheaper to buy and shoot than a FA piece. The workmanship is much better than expected from a standard FA parts kit. There is an article in the latest Shotgun News about them. Pioneer Arms, in Poland take surplus FA Sub-Gun and covert them to SA. What a fun firearm to shoot!!!

That is so cool, I'm assuming you don't live in CA. Nothing this cool would be legal here.

Must be nice! I feel like on the opposite side of the Berlin wall over here. We have a "Roster" of guns that we are allowed to own. Are you F'ing kidding me?! A roster?! So much for "Land of the FREE." If all of my fiance's and my family didn't live here I'd be in North Texas right now.

MVRK,
I was in Houston, Texas most of last year and it was great! Buying guns were so easy, especially since I had a C&R License. Other than a hot place in the summer, Texas is great!

It is amazing that weapon is classified as a pistol! Interesting rifle-like piece you have there!

Geobob,
I agree with you when I saw it a y LGS!!!!
But the fit and finish is not bad for a reworked Sub gun from the 1950s. The locked folding stock allows the barrel to 10" and classified asa pistol. I bet California Rep Pelosi would go NUTS to know these are on the market, LMAO! I was a bit concerned how well it would shoot holding the pistol grip and the magazine at arms length, but it s surprisingly accurate at 25 yds. All shots were on an 8 x 10 target. It is definetly a "head turner" at the range!
