Wonder what they're packing? KGB assassins and recon agents are known to carry the PSS, with an almost completely silent report. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

- DanielBMarkham 11y agoThanks for this link. A fascinating weapon. Would love to see a teardown and some range action. I didn't think such a thing would be possible. Sounds like something along the lines of a gunpowder-powered air gun -- the gunpowder contains the force, but it's the cylinder that ejects the round -- all the gases are captured. Very interesting!
- moron4hire 11y agoThat's pretty much exactly how it worked, with the piston internal to the cartridge, rather than the weapon http://worldweapon.info/patron-762x415-sp-4 http://worldweapon.info/patron-762x415-sp-4
- fein 11y agoProbably not a PSS. I can nearly guarantee it would be a Makarov, and only special forces have ever been issued Grachs. KGB is synonymous with the Makarov and to a lesser extent the Tokarev.
