Not so long ago a novelty came from IzhevskArms Factory - a pistol "Baikal", which is an exact copy of the combat PM. This sample has increased power, there is a corresponding logo in the form of a star on the handle, as well as an updated assembly in the export version. This weapon consists of the main unit (air cylinder, valve, store) and additional elements - packaging or holster.
History of creation
The pistol "Baikal MR-654K" is aexact pneumatic copy of a similar combat unit. The release of the gas-cylinder modification began in 1997. Since the state orders for the supply of pistols were significantly reduced, Izhevsk gunsmiths had to adjust the manufacture of pneumatics, which at that time was in great demand.
During the release of the pistol "Baikal" constantlyimproved and acquired several original modifications, which differ externally and constructively. The product is a handy aid for beginner shooters, due to its simplicity and convenience. The exterior of the gun, the reliability, the worthy quality of the mechanisms in the traditions of combat PM contributed to its popularity among fans and masters who can enjoy dynamic shooting.
Appearance
In the production of a pneumatic gun, spare parts from a combat analog are used. This decision makes the gas-cylinder version as much recognizable and similar to the military prototype.
The trunk in the muzzle is slightly cut, which givesweapons solidity and similarity with the popular caliber of 9 millimeters. The recognizable feature, which has a pneumatic gun "Baikal" (photo below), is a lining on the handle. And in some models it also has a five-pointed star.
Realism and similarity with the military analogGas balloon model gives a masterfully made copy of the release button of the clip. In addition, the guns are provided with blown bolt holders. The modified unit is made of combat steel, and is in demand now.
Features:
- the handle is narrow with an overlay;
- the dimensions of the table in the muzzle are 10 mm in diameter;
- the balloon is tightened without a ring;
- The clamping latch in charged mode does not protrude beyond the clip;
- bolted frame.
In addition to the model in question, small-caliber modifications and "pugachi" are popular.
The pistol "Baikal MR-654K": characteristics
Despite the similarity with combat weapons,The pneumatic model has certain design differences. The trigger mechanism is identical to the original, but does not have a striker. For the functioning of the modification in question, balloons of 8 and 12 grams are used. The cage is designed for ball bullets, the mass of the pistol without carbon dioxide tank and charge is 0.73 kg.
TTX tools:
- caliber - 4,5 mm;
- ammunition - copper plated balls of steel;
- resource of one cylinder - up to 90 shots;
- capacity of the store - 13 cartridges;
- length / width / height (mm) - 169/35/145;
- material of the body - metal from hard alloys;
- seals are made of polymers;
- trunk - metal with six cuts;
- trigger mechanism - double type;
- manual flasher fuse.
Also the pistol "Baikal" is equipped with a movable shutter frame and an uncontrolled fly with the whole on the open sight.
Equipment
Shop, valve block and can inThe model under consideration is formed into a single working node. The clip is placed in the handle, as in the combat version. The cuts in the channel of the trunk are polygonal, the mechanism allows firing both in self-cocking mode and with preliminary preparation. In the first case, the force on the descent increases twice.
A flap-mounted fuse on the shutter allowsto secure the owner when operating a weapon. The pneumatic pistol "Baikal MR-654K", the characteristics of which are as close as possible to the combat version, is equipped with a valve unit that controls the gas supply, containing a device for holding the balloon and puncturing it.
To use tanks with a capacity of 8 gramsyou will need to install a special adapter. Correction of the static fly and the head is not provided, as is the base for mounting additional optics. Multiple-charge weapons are provided by the spring feeder, located in the store. This design is not designed for soft lead charges susceptible to deformation. Ignoring this point can lead to jamming of the gun and the occurrence of a hazardous situation.
Features of operation
The pneumatic gun "Baikal", the photo of which is placed above, is operated as follows:
- The magazine is filled with a clip and a gas cylinder is screwed into the magazine. Then the fuse is removed.
- Moving with a loaded weapon is undesirable. Targets and other equipment is prepared in advance.
- Transport of pneumatics is performed in a discharged state with a balloon unscrewed and an empty magazine.
The product from Izhevsk gunsmiths, like any otherAnother mechanism requires prevention and minor repairs. Most often this is due to the replacement of gaskets and worn out springs. Seals should be carefully removed from the landing nests, not allowing their deformation and depressurization. To eliminate the leakage of gas, you can use silicone oil, which does not destroy the polymer.
To replace the return spring, you will have to partially disassemble the weapon, and to manipulate the supply element of the store you will need to completely disassemble it.
Care and maintenance
For the lubrication of mechanisms, the pistol "Baikal" will need to be partially disassembled. This is done as follows:
- the store is disconnected;
- The trigger is retracted to the left and down;
- the shutter must be pulled to the stop;
- From the rear, it rises, but in the front it detaches;
- dismantling the gate is made through the receiver line;
- the return spring is retracted.
Полная разборка рекомендуется исключительно по necessity (excessive contamination or wetting of weapons). After preparation, all parts of the gun are wiped with an oiled cloth, and rubbing elements are lubricated with gun oil. Small mechanisms are cleaned with a toothbrush, and the stem part is a steel ramrod with a polymer coating.
Advantages
The gun in question has several advantages. Among them we can distinguish the following:
- as close as possible imitation of military weapons;
- simplicity, reliability and safety of the structure;
- high-quality materials, high rate of fire, multiply-charged;
- ergonomics, basic maintenance and the ability to conduct firing without having special skills.
It has this gun and certain disadvantages.The rifled barrel is not very suitable for shooting with steel balls. In addition, users say not very high accuracy and weak dispenser system. Also on this modification does not provide the ability to install additional optics.
