Greater popularity among amateurpneumatic pistols purchased weight and size copies of military weapons. The Makarov pistol (PM) is widespread in the Russian Federation, which caused an increased demand for its pneumatic version - the MP 654K. The model is unpretentious in application and has a decent initial speed of a bullet.
In the process of manufacturing products are usedelements from the combat PM, due to which the pneumatics is very similar to the original. Slightly shortened barrel, recessed in the muzzle, imitates this 9-mm caliber. Externally, it differs from the PM in that it does not have a sleeve ejector.
Appointment
This MP 654 air gunintended for amateur and training shooting spherical bullets for airguns of 4.5 mm caliber. Shooting is carried out at a temperature of 10-30 degrees.
During a pistol shooting after hiskeeping in curb condition at a temperature of more than 30 degrees the speed of a bullet can significantly decrease at the first shots (as a rule, not more than three). During subsequent shooting, the speed is restored.
Technical and operational characteristics
Makarov MP 654 air pistol has the following specifications:
- Bullet speed: nominal 110 m / s.
- Caliber: 4.5. Standard ammunition - steel (or copper-coated) balls of reduced size, although the use of full-sized lead shot is possible.
- Weight: 0.73 kilograms.
- Емкость магазина: 13 шариков-пуль.Also, a device for fixing and puncturing a cylinder with CO2 is integrated into the store. But the cylinder is enough for 50-80 shots, after which for a full-fledged flight of a bullet of gas energy will be small.
- Body: metal, polymer and rubber sealing compounds, plastic handle cheeks.
- Dimensions: 169x145x35 millimeters.
- Descent: double action.
- Barrel: rifled.
- Fixtures for the sight: open front sight and rear sight, unregulated.
- Fuse: manual.
The manufacturer: "Izhevsk mechanical plant".
Cost: about $ 250, depending on the exterior, components.
Scheme and device
The pneumatic MP 654K is similar in function togunshot model. Almost not redone trigger mechanism, characterized only by the absence of striker. The store, which was modified for charging with balls and fixing a carbon dioxide cylinder, was also changed.
Makarov MP 654 pistol works on this principle:
- a CO2 cylinder is placed in the store, screwing it in before the needle is punctured;
- in the cartridge the liquefied gas becomes compressed, it is located in a sealed chamber;
- lead or steel bullets charge in the store, equipped with a spring-loaded feeder;
- after pressing the trigger, the trigger hits a spring-loaded valve that briefly releases compressed CO2;
- the outgoing gas has a high pressure acting on the ball and pushing it out of the barrel at a considerable speed.
Standard equipment
Almost all accessories to the product need to be purchased.separately. Standard equipment includes instructions, seals (gaskets) with a screwdriver, 200 steel copper-coated balls. For shooting it is necessary to buy cartridges with CO2, oil for cleaning weapons and a ramrod.
Users of the MP 654 can also purchase these additional accessories:
- bullet catcher (very convenient for shooting at paper targets);
- holster.
Cleaning and disassembling
For disassembly and assembly of weapons, as a rule, not enough instructions and manuals, you must see the whole process. Training videos can help you understand the disassembly and assembly of the MP 654 pistol.
Note: a complete disassembly may be required after the product falls into water or dirt. Not recommended without the need to disassemble the weapon.
During scheduled maintenance, incomplete disassembly is performed, the barrel and mechanisms are cleaned and lubricated. For this:
- the store is disconnected;
- trigger guard is retracted to the left and down - it becomes on the delay, allowing you to disconnect the shutter;
- the bolt is pulled back until it stops and the back of it is lifted up, then before the bolt goes out of engagement, and it is removed through the barrel;
- recoil spring is removed from the barrel.
Для очистки ствола применяется медный шомпол.The barrel is wiped with a cloth moistened in oil and pushed through the bore with a ramrod. As soon as there is no dark spots on the waste, wipe the remaining oil in the barrel with dry oil.
The mechanism is cleaned with a dry toothbrush. In places of moving parts, oil is added (an oil can with a long nose is used for this or sprayed from a can).
The design is going in the reverse order. The assembled product is wiped from excess oil, but not wiped dry - the remnants of a thin oil film will protect against early metal rusting.
We prepare the product for use
First, the store is charged with balls and a can of CO is screwed into it.2. Equipped magazine is placed in the handle until it stops, while the fuse is transferred parallel to the barrel.
Security measures
To minimize walking with chargedweapons should be prepared in advance of the target. Shots are made only in the direction of the goal, making sure that in the direction of shooting there are no people. Before being transported, the MP 654 pistol must be discharged, for which the remaining balls in the store are being shot, and the cylinder with the remaining gas is unscrewed.
During the operation of the gun is prohibited:
- direct people towards the muzzle;
- store and leave charged;
- disconnect the full cylinder from the store;
- disassemble the store with the placed balloon.
Also when the speed of a bullet decreasesassociated with the flow of gas in the cylinder, you need to stop firing on time, without making single shots without gas. Otherwise, after the magazine is removed, the remaining bullets in the barrel will fall into the shock-trigger mechanism, causing it to break.
Replacement and repair parts
Often it is required to replace cracked butts and “dead” springs in a pneumatic gun. Replacing the seals, they must be carefully removed from the seats.
Note: you should not hurry, because because of this, you can scratch the contact points of the gasket and metal, which is bad for airtightness.
To eliminate gas leakage, gaskets are lubricated with silicone oil. It is not recommended to use WD-40 automotive liquid because it destroys the polymer material.
To replace the recoil pistol Makarov MP654 does not fully understand. More trouble involves replacing the supply spring, because you have to do a complete disassembly of the store. To replace the burst elements with USM, the product is completely disassembled.
Benefits according to user feedback
The advantages of this design includesimplicity of the mechanism, increased bullet speed and recognizable design. Thanks to this, the MP 654K is one of the most popular pistols for those who like to shoot at targets in the forest.
Due to quick incomplete disassembly and easycleaning and lubrication labor costs to maintain the model become minimal. Thanks to multiply charged, you can make more than 10 shots in a row, without being distracted by frequent recharging.
disadvantages
By cons, according to reviews of lovers of airguns, include:
- common problem for all pneumatics WITH2which concerns the reduction of the temperature of the cartridge with frequent shooting and leads to a significant decrease in the speed of the bullet;
- in some models, modifications are possible that impair the tightness of the pneumatic system;
- not completely similar to the original firearm: experts will notice that there is no ejector and there is an extra screw with a ring for tightening the spray can at the bottom of the handle;
- It is impossible to install other aiming devices - with the exception of the laser pointer in front of the trigger guard.
Although the air gunMakarov MP 654 has some drawbacks, they are not considered critical for shooting fans. Lead balls are recommended to reduce barrel wear and increase bullet speed. To improve the tightness, you can make easy tuning, which does not take much time. This will allow in practice to understand the device and the principle of how the gun operates. Due to proper care, you can significantly increase the life of the product, because the weapon loves lubrication and cleanliness.
This product can be purchased at any gun shop.
