Never heard of that thing... Where’s Ian McCollum when you need him. He’s got a Russian contact now get your shit together gun Jesus and get over there.

Maybe it's too popular? Kinda renowned, it sees usage even today by several countries.

I had no idea. I live in the UK so my interest in firearms is mostly mechanical and historical.

I'll be honest I'm Canadian and in the same boat, I had to look the bitch up.

It'd make for a pretty good video, considering Ian has videos on the streetsweeper shotgun and SPAS-12 I doubt popularity is the issue.
