The domestic company "Front-Tactical Systems" has developed a universal ammunition supply system designed to improve the combat qualities of existing machine guns.
The creation of a new product, designated "Scorpion", was carried out on an initiative basis, without an order from the military department or security forces. In order to increase the ammunition load of the machine gun, ready for use, it was decided to abandon the standard boxes for belts, replacing them with a larger container and a special device for feeding the cartridge belt to the receiving window of the machine gun.
As it stands, the Scorpion system consists of several main parts. A metal box-container of appropriate dimensions is intended for storing the tape with cartridges. A special flexible sleeve for feeding cartridges is connected to it, at the second end of which a bracket is provided for mounting on a machine gun. Such an architecture of the kit allows producing various versions of it, both stationary and portable.
The Scorpion kit includes several basic elements. A metal box-container is intended for storing and carrying the tape with cartridges. In its basic configuration, it measures 40x10x30 cm and holds 475 rounds in one belt.
To carry the box, it is proposed to use a special knapsack, adjustable in accordance with the anatomy of the shooter. A special cover with fasteners for a flexible sleeve is installed on the box for cartridges.
The sleeve itself is a structure of a large number of metal segments capable of changing position relative to each other within certain sectors. The sleeve is 160 cm long, 10 cm wide and 2.5 cm thick, which allows it to hold up to 75 rounds. If necessary, the sleeve is equipped with a protective cover.
The sleeve is completed with a bracket that allows it to be connected to the weapon. The set weighs about 4.1 kg without cartridges.
According to the manufacturer, in the basic configuration the "Scorpion" kit is intended for use with rifle cartridges 7.62x54 mm R and loose metal strips. In preparation for shooting, a single tape for 550 rounds is placed in the box and sleeve. The end of the tape is displayed to the receiving window of the weapon. The Scorpion system is designed for use with Kalashnikov machine guns: PK, PKM and Pecheneg using a 7.62x54 mm cartridge.
You can use the "Scorpion" for any task - whether it is patrolling in the forest, or targeted assault operations in urban areas. And here, it is also very important to mention that you can transfer the ammunition system in different ways, being equipped.
No piece of equipment will interfere with the use of a box with a flexible sleeve. So, for example, "Scorpion" can be worn in conjunction with any means of individual body armor - a machine gunner can use a bulletproof vest, an armored helmet or an anti-splinter suit, if necessary.
The developer of the system, the Front company, has already come out with a proposal to put the Scorpion into service, including its inclusion in the Ratnik system. However, at the moment, the issue is being resolved. Nevertheless, a number of such products are already used by representatives of various structures.
The Scorpion system will replace GLONASS in wartime
The Ministry of Defense has begun replacing the RSDN-10 ground-based long-range navigation radar systems with the new Scorpion systems. In case of war, these ground-based coordinate systems will replace the space ones - GPS and GLONASS. The update program is designed until 2020, Izvestia writes.
As noted by the representative of the Russian Institute of Radio Navigation and Time, Yuri Kupin, “during hostilities, all satellite signals passing through space will be actively jammed by the so-called“ white noise ”. In service with Russia, the United States and a number of other countries, there are aircraft with special equipment that are capable of blocking the entire near-earth radio space with noise.
The "Scorpion" system is intended to become a kind of GLONASS backup in such a situation.
The Scorpion system is capable of providing a large coverage area (1,000 km versus 600 for the RSDN-10). The system is capable of automatically maintaining the parameters of the emitted signal and can be controlled from a single remote control. The receivers of the system can be installed on aviation, land, sea and river equipment ”.
Another advantage of the Scorpions is the ability to synchronize stations with the GLONASS system, which significantly increases their efficiency.
In addition to the commissioning of new systems, the modernization of old ones is also planned. In particular, Rosoboronpostavka ordered the repair and restoration work of the RSDN-10 complexes and the RSDN-20 "Alpha" system.
Commissioning of the Scorpion systems is planned in four stages. In 2013-2015. three systems in Transbaikalia will be replaced, in 2016-2017 - four systems in the North Caucasus region, in 2017-2019. - four in the Far East, in 2019-2020. will replace three systems in the South Ural region.

And now, general information about long-range radio-technical systems.
In order to ensure the safety of air, land and sea transport, as well as to solve a number of special tasks on the basis of government decrees, a long-range radio navigation support system (LRNO) was created in the Soviet Union. DRNO is designed to create conditions for the combat use of aviation in theaters of military operations, operational areas and in military-geographical areas, as well as air navigation when performing all types of flights.
RSDN are designed to determine the location of an aircraft at a distance of 1500 km or more.
RSDN consists of ground-based radio transmitting devices - reference stations (OS) and on-board receiving equipment. The reference stations are located on the surface of the Earth at points, the geographical coordinates of which are stored in the memory of the onboard equipment.
The on-board equipment receives signals and measures the range to reference stations (in the rangefinder RSDN) or the difference in ranges (in the differential-rangefinder RSDN). Based on the measured ranges or range differences, the computing device of the onboard equipment receiver builds position lines. Lines of position (LP) - the locus of points characterized by the same value of the range or difference of distances, represent either circles (in the rangefinder RSDN) (Fig. 1.1, a), or hyperbolas (in the differential-rangefinder RSDN) (Fig. 1.1, b). Several operating systems are used to determine several LPs and by their intersection the computing device determines the location (geographical coordinates) of the aircraft.
Figure 1.1 Lines of position in the RSDN:
A) rangefinder RSDN;
B) differential rangefinder RSDN. Three aircraft (No. 1, No. 2, No. 3) are located on the lines of position 2, 3, 4. The distance between the stations OC1 and OC2 is called baseline.
In the rangefinder RSDN, to determine the distance to the reference station, the delay time is measured T signal on the path from the OS to the aircraft, i.e. T =D/with, where WITH is the speed of propagation of radio waves, and D- distance to OS.
Emission of signals by reference stations is carried out at strictly defined moments of time, known on the plane, that is, on the plane and on the OS there must be time standards. According to the time standard OS, the moment of signal emission is set, and according to the time standard on the plane, the moment of receiving this signal is noted. But, due to the presence of discrepancies between the time standards on the OS and on the aircraft, an error in measuring the range is possible, therefore the measured range is referred to as pseudo-range, and this measurement method is pseudo-range. If the time standard on the airplane is corrected (for example, according to the universal time system), then the measurement error will be determined by the time scale drift for the time interval between corrections.
The main tasks of the DRNO are:
ensuring the solution of combat missions by aviation in the tactical, operational and strategic depth of the enemy;
ensuring the solution of combat training tasks by aviation formations, formations and units;
ensuring flights of aircraft along optimal routes, over non-orientated terrain, water areas of the seas and oceans;
ensuring the safety of aircraft flights.
The use of long-range radio navigation devices ensures the solution of the following tasks by the aircraft of the Armed Forces:
the use of aviation weapons;
landing;
aerial reconnaissance;
overcoming the enemy's air defense zone;
interaction with ground forces and naval forces.
At present, the main means of the DRNO of the aviation of the RF Armed Forces are radio technical systems for long-range navigation (RSDN). RSDN are designed to determine the location of mobile objects at any time of the day or year with unlimited bandwidth in a given coverage area.
The high efficiency of these systems is confirmed by more than 30 years of experience in their operation, including in the conditions of local armed conflicts in Afghanistan and the North Caucasus, where in the conditions of mountainous and non-orientated terrain, RSDN were often the only means of correcting flight and navigation systems for solving problems air navigation and combat use.
All types of the RF Armed Forces are consumers of the RSDN. In addition to the Ministry of Defense, the consumers of the navigation information generated by the RSDN are the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Border Service, and the Ministry of Transport of Russia. In addition, the DRN stations operate in the State system of uniform time and reference frequencies.
The structure of the RSDN ground station includes:
Control and synchronization equipment;
- a radio transmitting device with a power of 0.65-3.0 million watts (in an impulse);
- general industrial equipment (autonomous diesel power plant with a capacity of 600-1000 kW, air conditioning, communications, etc.);
- the center of the service of a uniform time of high accuracy - SEV VT. It is equipped with a complex of equipment that creates, stores and transmits time seconds to a transmitting device for broadcasting. The basis of CEB VT is the atomic frequency standard, which generates highly stable electromagnetic oscillations with a relative instability of 1x10-12. Timekeepers are formed in time sequences: seconds, minutes. five minutes, etc. Station time stamps are "tied" to the national time scale. These signals are used when launching spacecraft, in navigation, geology, geodesy, etc.
Currently, the following long-range navigation radio systems have been deployed and are in operation:
1. Phase RSDN-20 "Route".
2. Systems RSDN "Chaika":
- European RSDN-3/10;
- Far Eastern RSDN-4;
- North RSDN-5.
3. Mobile systems RSDN-10 (North Caucasian, South Ural, Transbaikal, Far Eastern).
The first radio technical system for long-distance navigation, on the territory of the former USSR, RSDN-3/10, was created after the modernization of the Meridian and Normal RNSs. It was commissioned with the Air Force in the early 70s of the last century.
The RSDN-3/10 includes 5 long-distance radio navigation (DRN) stations: three stations are located on the territory of the Russian Federation (the settlement of Karachev, the settlement of Petrozavodsk, the settlement of Syzran), one station in the territory of Belarus ( Slonim settlement) and one station on the territory of Ukraine (Simferopol settlement).
After the collapse of the USSR, RSDN-3/10 operates in accordance with the intergovernmental agreement on long-range radio navigation support in the Commonwealth of Independent States of March 12, 1993. According to Article 2 of this Agreement, its participants recognized it necessary to preserve the radio navigation systems operating on their territory, as well as the existing procedure for their operation.
The analogue of domestic RSDN (Chaika) abroad are the radio navigation systems (RNS) Loran-C (USA).
Early 90s the last century was marked by the rapid development of satellite navigation systems (SNS). The Global Positioning System (GPS Navstar) was created in the USA. In the Soviet Union, a global navigation satellite system (GLONASS) called "Hurricane" was widely developed. SNS were distinguished by high accuracy in determining the coordinates of moving objects (tens, and in some cases, units of meters), creating a global radio navigation field, and the ability to obtain three-dimensional coordinates on board a moving object. The RSDN parameters were more modest: the accuracy was 0.2-2.0 km, they had a limited working area. For example, the working area of the European RSDN-3/10: the water area of the Barents Sea - the Black Sea and the Ural Mountains - Germany. The SNS, thanks to its unique parameters, created the impression that the time for ground-based RSDN has passed. However, after the tests of SNS for noise immunity and stability of operation, disappointing results were obtained. The fact is that in determining the location of objects in the SNS, noise-like signals are used. It is not very difficult to suppress such a signal in the aircraft coverage area. It seemed that the way out is in the integrated use of these two types of navigation: European experts followed this path. We have created the control and corrective technology "Eurofix" - a system of joint use of RSDN and SNS. We go our own way. And so, in the area of Taimylyr settlement, a unique structure, transmitting antenna 460 m high, was destroyed. Almost Ostankino tower in the Arctic Circle. The hardware and equipment are simply abandoned. 175.2 million (Soviet) rubles were spent on the creation of the exploded object.
As it became known, the bowels of the Arctic Ocean are fraught with huge reserves of natural resources. One can foresee the struggle of the circumpolar states (and not only them) for these riches. It is clear that navigation aids in this region will play a decisive role in the future. Therefore, the means of radio navigation support in the Arctic region must be preserved.
RSDN-20:
The Alpha Phase Radio Navigation System (also known as the Long Range Radio Engineering System or RSDN-20) is a Russian long-range radio navigation system. It operates on the same principles as the decommissioned Omega Navigation System in the very low frequency range. The Alpha system consists of 3 transmitters located in the region of Novosibirsk, Krasnodar, Komsomolsk-on-Amur. These transmitters transmit 3.6 s signal sequences at 11.905 kHz, 12.649 kHz and 14.881 kHz. Radio waves at these frequencies are reflected from the lowest layers of the ionosphere and are therefore less susceptible to attenuation in the ionosphere (attenuation of 3 dB per 1000 km), but the phase of the wave is very sensitive to the reflection height.
The receiver measures the phase difference of the signals from the navigation transmitters and builds a family of hyperbolas. A moving object can always determine its position, if it does not lose the ability to track the signals of navigation transmitters. The phase of the wave depends on the height of the reflecting layers of the ionosphere, and therefore seasonal and diurnal variations can be compensated for. The positioning accuracy is at least 2 nautical miles, but at high latitudes and in the polar regions, where sudden phase anomalies can occur, the accuracy is reduced to 7 nautical miles.
And I will remind you that it existed, and maybe it does exist Perimeter guaranteed retaliatory nuclear strike system, as well as what isThe system of uninterrupted supply of the machine-gun belt "Scorpion" changes the tactics of combat, allowing the machine gunner to solve the problem with the amount of ammunition and the need for frequent reloading without affecting mobility. Such a solution is a long-standing need for special forces, which has finally found a real embodiment.
"Scorpion" is equipped with an easy-to-use sleeve for feeding a non-scattering metal tape, which allows continuous fire from a weapon in any position. The system holds 475 rounds in the main compartment, and another 75 rounds directly in the feed arm. The cartridges are packed in a special box located in the backpack (to equip a machine gunner with such ammunition, 6 bulky machine-gun boxes would have been required earlier).
The main system, together with the backpack base, is equipped with an adjustable waist belt and shoulder straps. The flexible hose is made of durable steel and coated with a corrosion resistant chemical coating.
Advantages
The total ammunition of the system is 550 rounds. The ability to achieve a fire advantage without changing boxes and without reloading. Creation of a high density of fire to completely suppress the enemy. Lightening the machine gun by transferring the weight of the ammunition. The ability to quickly fasten the sleeve when switching from the stowed to the firing position. A box with a sleeve can fit into any backpack (if necessary, or if the included backpack is damaged).
Peculiarities
The "Scorpion" system is designed and manufactured for 7.62 x 54 R cartridge of various GRAU indices (production for other calibers is possible). Suitable for operators with any anthropometric data. Backpack base with adjustable shoulder straps and a belt (in the appropriate configuration) can be made in different colors (the main color is olive).
The sleeve is equipped with a soft cover for protection from the external environment. High-strength chemical coating of some elements. Full maintainability - the ability to replace individual elements of the system without the help of tools and appropriate qualifications in any conditions.
Simple and reliable attachment of the flexible sleeve to the machine gun body at standard box attachment points. Quickly put on and off. Excluded spontaneous opening during movement and shooting. Effort of the flexible feeder to break in the extended position, not less - 90 kg (static weight).
The product is suitable for: PC-based airsoft models, 6P41 "PECHENEG", 6P6M PKM.
The system is supplied on request. It is possible to manufacture with various parameters - wearable (MAX 1000 cartridges, due to considerations of weight load on the operator), any capacity, stationary, any capacity. Production time - 14 working days. We will contact you after placing your order.

The radio waves of the new stations are capable of covering Russia from the sky, sea and land.
The Ministry of Defense has begun replacing the RSDN-10 ground-based long-range navigation radar systems with the new Scorpion systems. In case of war, these ground-based coordinate systems will replace the space ones - GPS and GLONASS. The renovation program is designed until 2020 and began this year with three systems of the Trans-Baikal chain.
“During hostilities, all satellite signals passing through space will be actively jammed by the so-called“ white noise ”,” Yuri Kupin, a representative of the Russian Institute of Radio Navigation and Time, told Izvestia. - In service with Russia, the United States and a number of other countries, there are aircraft with special equipment that are capable of blocking the entire near-earth radio space with noise. The "Scorpions" are intended to become a kind of GLONASS understudy in such a situation.
The current long-range navigation systems were developed back in the 40-50s of the last century and partially performed the functions of determining coordinates (with an error of 150-800 m), which are now entrusted to GLONASS and GPS. Now, due to the deterioration of the equipment and the complexity of servicing the RSDN-10, they are practically not used, most of the stations have been destroyed. The replacement of ground systems is caused primarily by the need to ensure national security in terms of radio navigation.
Scientific developments of the past years were used in the creation of the new RSDN. "Scorpions" are capable of providing a large coverage area (1,000 km versus 600). In addition, RSDN-10 do not have LKKS - the so-called local control correction stations, which are located at a great distance, which does not allow radio waves to penetrate the territory of a potential enemy and makes radio navigation systems invisible.
“The main“ consumers ”of these stations, which are in service with the Air Defense Forces and the Air Force, are also long-range aviation and the navy,” said Kupin. “They receive accurate time signals and synchronize equipment over such networks.
"Scorpions", in contrast to the outdated stations, are able to automatically maintain the parameters of the emitted signal, can be controlled from a single control panel and are capable of suppressing residual radio pulses. The receivers of the system can be installed on aviation, land, sea and river equipment. Another advantage of the "Scorpions" is the ability to synchronize stations with the GLONASS system, which significantly increases their efficiency.
“The crews of long-range aircraft are never guided by data from only one system to determine their location,” former Air Force Commander-in-Chief Pyotr Deinekin told Izvestia. - We are always engaged in the complex application of means of determining the exact location of an aircraft. There should also be an autonomous navigation system so that the crew does not depend on radio and space assets that may be susceptible to interference. By the way, the issue of navigation accuracy is one of the important problems of war and peace.
In addition to the commissioning of the latest radar developments, the modernization of old systems is also planned. The Rosoboronpostavka agency has ordered repair and restoration work on the RSDN-10 complexes and the RSDN-20 Alpha system. The modernization is carried out within the framework of the federal target program "Global Navigation Systems" and in accordance with the "Russian Radio Navigation Plan for 2008-2015". For these purposes, about 50 million rubles have been allocated from the budget of the Ministry of Defense.
The Scorpion will be commissioned in four stages. In 2013-2015, three systems of the Trans-Baikal chain will be replaced, in 2016-2017 - four systems of the North Caucasian chain, in 2017-2019 - four in the Far East, in 2019-2020 - three systems of the South Ural chain will be replaced ... In addition to new long-range navigation systems, the Russian army will receive anti-jamming aircraft receivers PPA-S / V, operating on signals from GLONASS, GPS, the entire arsenal of ground-based RSDN and "Scorpion".

The system for feeding cartridges into the barrel of a weapon is designed for automatic and semi-automatic firearms. The system contains a magazine with cartridges installed in the weapon socket, a magazine retention latch and a cartridge feeder. The system is equipped with a slide latch and a mechanical connection of the magazine retention latch with cartridges or a slide latch, while the magazine retention latch is designed to open when the magazine is empty or if the last cartridge is present in it, as well as a lock with an additional latch mechanically connected to the protrusion made on weapons and located in the path of movement of the shutter of the weapon or related elements to prevent premature disconnection of the magazine from the weapon. EFFECT: simplified charging and reduced reloading time of weapons by self-disconnecting magazine when ammunition is used up. 2 n. and 8 c.p. f-ly, 6 dwg
The invention relates to automatic and semi-automatic firearms and is applicable to weapons of any small caliber systems.
Known ammunition systems, consisting of a store with a spring-loaded feeder and a magazine slot for weapons / cm. for example, "Manual on shooting" M .: Voenizdat 1970 p.4-19 /. The disadvantage of such a system is that after the cartridges are used up, the magazine must be removed. In addition, the magazine, which has a horn shape, is inconvenient to insert and remove, because movement in an arc is less orthopedically comfortable for the loader's hand - a simple straight movement is performed more confidently and faster, therefore, reloading the open-end magazine takes 1 second longer than a direct one. And the experience of hostilities in Afghanistan revealed the urgent need to reduce the reloading time of weapons, especially an assault rifle. In addition, when firing from a machine gun, if the trigger is released immediately after the last cartridge is used up or when firing single cartridges, the end of the cartridges remains unnoticed, which can lead to the death of a soldier.
The technical result is a simplified charging and self-disconnection of the magazine when the ammunition is used up, which is an alarm about the end of cartridges.
To do this, the magazine holding latch is mechanically connected to the feeder in the upper or upper upper / if there is one cartridge in the magazine / its position, or to an element mechanically connected to the feeder or to the cartridges, moreover, if the magazine has an indirect, for example, horn shape, then its worker the end has straight guides. The mechanical connection can be located both in the weapon and in the magazine, and in the latter case, with some design solutions, the counter latch located in the weapon can serve as an emphasis for the latch located in the magazine. In systems where the opening of the latch is designed not for lowering the magazine, but for the last cartridge, there is a lock for disconnecting the magazine in the form of an additional latch mechanically connected to a protrusion located in the path of movement of the shutter or related elements.
The design designed for the last cartridge differs from the first in that in the first design, the magazine separation occurs after the last shot, when the bolt moved back and released the feeder. In this case, the weapon remains incapable of combat for some time.
And in a design designed for the last cartridge, the magazine separation occurs before the last shot in the phase of sending the cartridge. In this case, the weapon, at least when firing single, remains charged all the time.
For a more energetic separation of the magazine from the weapon, there is an ejection spring attached to the magazine or weapon. And so that during practice shooting the store does not fall on a hard surface or into the mud, the store and weapons have loops with which the safety cord carabiners are connected.
Mechanical connection can be carried out both directly and through a rod, a two-armed or one-armed spring-loaded or spring-loaded lever, etc.
Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the ammunition supply system. Figure 2 shows four specific examples of the arrangement of rectilinear guides on the horn magazine. Figures 3-6 show specific design solutions.
Structurally, the system consists of element 1, which perceives the end of the ammunition or the moment when there is one cartridge or unitary shot left in the store, this can be a feeder, an element associated with it, for example, a slide delay in a PM pistol, or cartridges directly. A mechanical connection 2 interacts with this element, and with it - a latch 3 holding the housing 4 of the store.
In designs designed for the last cartridge, to prevent premature disconnection of the magazine, there is a latch 5 of the lock connected to the protrusion 6 on the path of the bolt or the element 7 connected to it. To speed up the separation of the magazine, there is a push-out spring 8.
This system works as follows: when the cartridges are used up, element 1 through mechanical connection 2 opens latch 3 and the empty magazine 4 is separated from the weapon by its own weight and spring 8. In designs designed for the last cartridge, after the release of the latch 3, the magazine is held by the latch 5 of the blocker until the last cartridge is removed from it by the shutter 7, which / or the element associated with it / when rolling, presses on the protrusion 6, opening the latch 5 blocker. The store is separated.
Figure 2 shows the main options for the location of the guides 9 on the housing 4 of the horn magazine. Intermediate ones are also possible.
Depending on the type of magazine / straight, open-end, disc, drum / and the type of mechanical transmission / direct, traction, pusher, one- or two-arm lever, shaft, etc. /, and the location of the mechanical connection, and the latch, various examples are possible specific implementation.
The systems in FIGS. 3-5 consist of a magazine body 4 with a feeder 10 spring-loaded with a spring 11. To hold the magazine there is a latch 3, and for manual detachment - a flag 12. Moreover, in Figs. 3, 5, the latches are formed by bending an elastic plate on which and are attached.
In Fig. 3, there is also a rod 13 attached, for example by resistance welding, to the feeder 10 and the flag 12.
Figure 4 shows staggered cartridges 14, between the tips of which there is a protrusion 15 of a two-armed lever 16, spring-loaded by a spring 17 and attached to an axis 18 inside the guide 19.
In Fig. 5, the latch 3 is located on an elastic plate 20 attached to or is part of the rear wall of the magazine, and an additional latch 21 serves as a stop for the latch 3 in the form of an elastic plate bent by an angle, attached at one end to the body of the weapon. On the housing 4 of the store there is a protrusion 22 for the latch 5 of the blocker 23, which is attached to the axis 24 and has a protrusion 6 located on the roll path of the handle 25 of the bolt frame.
Figure 6 shows a magazine 4 in the socket of the weapon 26. In the wall of the socket there is a groove 27, in which there is a glass 28 with a tooth 29. A tensile pushing spring 8 is attached to the glass and the bottom of the groove.
The systems in Figs. 3, 4 work as follows: as the cartridges are consumed, the feeder 10 under the action of the spring 11 is shifted to the open end of the magazine 4 and after the last cartridge is used up through a mechanical connection in the form of a thrust 13 / Fig. 3/ or a protrusion 15 on the lever 16 / Fig. 4/ opens the latch 3 and the magazine falls out of the weapon under the influence of its own weight.
The system in Fig. 5 works in a similar way, except that the latch 3, under the action of the elastic plate 20, enters the groove of the feeder 10 at the moment when there is still one cartridge in the magazine. This happens after the rollback, and so that the magazine does not prematurely separate together with the last cartridge, it is held by the protrusion 22 by the latch 5 of the lock 23.
During the roll-off, the cartridge is sent into the barrel and at the same time the bolt or, in relation to the AKM machine gun, the bolt carrier with its handle 25 presses on the protrusion 6 of the lock and the empty magazine is separated. Moreover, if the shooting was carried out with single shots or at that moment the trigger was released, the weapon remains combat-ready during reloading: at any moment it is ready to fire one shot. To reload, it remains only to insert a new magazine and without jerking the shutter, you can continue shooting. It should be added that in this case, it is desirable to use a slide delay in the machine, similar to the PM pistol.
For faster and more reliable separation of the magazine in the above systems, there may be a pushing spring 8 / fig. 6/, which, when the magazine is attached, stretches, and after disconnecting the magazine, it is compressed and by the tooth 29 of the glass 28 pushes out the empty magazine 4.
The use of the invention will significantly increase the combat effectiveness of motorized rifle and airborne troops, especially in short-term oncoming, close, urban battles.
