    GSh-18 Ugly and lovely as it is

    Just wanted to share the pistol I would like to have. Don't jump on prohib barrel length, it's possible to have it made 3mm longer "Canadian Edition" :D

    As far as I know it's no-no to USA. But we can have it if we really want
    Also it's not cheap...

    Pictures are borrowed from Vitaly Kuzmin. Velocity in specs is for 7Н31 +P+ cartridge.

    I'd own one of those, no uglier than a Glock. How do you define "not cheap"?

    The choice of a two-position feed magazine is interesting. Practically every other double stack detachable pistol magazine feeds from a single, central position.

    they wanted $950 at the factory gates.
