More like he maintained the family name. He designed a number of weapons of his own that became successful.

He made the bizon and the vityaz. Didn't know that. They seem like cool guns, I wish there was an easy way to own a bizon.

It's disappointing to see how far Jow Forums has fallen. A few years back, threads like this would have been full of people discussing his achievements and/or dumping pictures of the guns he was involved in the development of (which includes the Bizon for fucks sake). Now most of the thread is just people spamming a shitty meme without adding anything to the discussion and only 4 posts out of 35 at this time actually discussing his life achievements. Why do most of you people even bother posting in these threads when all you're contributing is another post toward the bump limit and a minor "I cared enough about this mans life to spend the time filling out a captcha to spam another thoughtless, low effort post"?

While I'm not sure how massive of a difference his contribution made to users of Russian small arms, I have to give it to Victor he kept up the family name. Not only did he design his own gun, he made something with pretty interested design ideas. To build an SMG on the back of his father's life's work kept Mikhail Kalashnikov's legacy enduring and showed that there was still some innovating that could be done with the weapon's system. That's pretty damn cool.

You might be thinking of his grandson Igor.

Which other guns besides the Bizon did he design? IIRC he had a hand in the 107's balanced recoil system.

Wikipedia says the Vityaz-SN uses 9×19, rather than 9×18 or 7.62×25

can someone explain that decision to me? or is the wikipedia article wrong?

Rot in hell commie.

They had swapped over to 9mm Luger (or a +p+++ish version of it) before the invention of the Vityaz and Bizon and the likes.

I believe they have a 9x18 Mak Bizon though.
Then do it, faggot.
I find it interesting that not once did Mikhails SMG ideas catch on, but his assault rifle did. But then his son is born and he finally achieves what his father never could; invent an SMG that gets adopted.

Anyways, what did he do besides the vityaz? I can’t think of anything else off the top of my head.

Alright, lets talk about his achievements, I'm aware that he Mikhail had more children, is there any other of his offspring working in the firearms industry? What other guns did Viktor develop besides the Bizon and the Vityaz?

Well, the Russians had phased out the 762 Tokarev a long ago for God knows what reasons, and eventually they realized that the 9mm Parabelum is a far better cartridge than the 9mm Makarov. So they use 9mm loaded hot with armor piercing bullets in their submachineguns.

>Just an AK with a bunch of rails

Wow

Fuck. I want to both cry and laugh.

Rest in peace Victor.

They moved away from x25 and 9x18 was only adopted because it is the largest caliber feasible in a not-hipoint blowback pistol.

That's not very respectful user
>A FUCKING PULLEY
Yeah no I think Kalashnikov is safe.

the canted mag is ingenious

They’re pure sex user. I regret doing that to a Hungarian mag though, hence why it’s twin is unmolested. I’ll probably buy a few more cheap tapcos and see how they work with the window, and i’ll Probably get some of the mags on apex currently to do this with as well.

It reduces the mag weight by a noticeable amount, which is strange considering it’s just a mag.
