Weathered weapons: characteristics, features

Glazed weapons are non-combat copies of various assault rifles, pistols and rifles. The design of such an arsenal is not a priori intended for the use of warheads, and this is physically impossible. As ammunition, special blank cartridges are used. The main purpose of this weapon is collecting, as well as use in cinema and theatrical productions.

Production

Glazed weapons in the domestic market often have handicraft production. Among the official manufacturers of this type of product is Hammer Arms. All brands of machine guns, pistols, machine guns and rifles visually maximally resemble combat analogues. Single modifications are made by remaking combat specimens into non-killing copies. The SHP category (firing blank cartridges) also includes starting pistols with a caliber of nine or less millimeters.

Status

For a long time, rifled weapons in Russia did not have a specific status. The law governing this issue came out in 2012. It states that this category is allowed to acquire without a special license to citizens who are over 18 years old. Among the main provisions of the regulatory act, several points can be distinguished:

  • Weathered weapons (SHP) are assigned to the class of decommissioned inventory.
  • The redesigned product design eliminates the use of live ammunition.
  • The right to purchase without a license are citizens who have reached the age of majority.

How to change the configuration of a combat unit? To exclude the operation of warheads with weapons, they can carry out various manipulations:

  • Drill a chamber to a wider caliber.
  • Install pins in the barrel, making it stationary.
  • Stitching briskly.

The main purpose of such alterations is to radically change the characteristics of weapons, excluding them from the firearm category.

Features

There are craftsmen who are trying to remake the wetted weapon into a combat or traumatic option. It is worth noting that such attempts, even unsuccessful, fall under criminal liability. In addition, such experiments are dangerous for the designer himself, since the characteristics of idle models are irreversibly changed, which as much as possible eliminates the return of the modification to the military past.

Another feature of using SHP weapons is their external similarity with real prototypes. Consequently, the appearance with such a device in public places will cause a resonance among others, and will definitely attract the attention of law enforcement agencies, which first disarm the joker, and then they figure out what's what.

Finally

The decommissioned, cooled weapons, the models of which are indicated above, externally imitate combat analogues by almost 100 percent. However, the scope of their application is radically different, limited to collecting, theatrical stages, cinema and reconstruction of historical events. The domestic market offers a wide range of blank copies of modern weapons of domestic and foreign production, as well as units from the Second World War.
