MOSCOW, February 26.
/TASS/. The Kalashnikov Group, part of the state hi-tech corporation Rostec,
has developed the sports modification of the Lebedev PL-15 pistol that has been
designated as the SP1, the Kalashnikov press office said on Tuesday.
"The
modification for sports has retained all the positive features of the Lebedev
pistol, including ergonomics that is a strong point of the PL-15. The sports
model can be furnished with laser target designators, the under-barrel
flashlight and collimating sights. The handgun has large export
potential," the Kalashnikov press office told TASS.
The SP1 has the same
automatic mode as the PL-15. The pistol is chambered for the 9x19mm round and
without the magazine it weighs 0.8 kg (the aluminum alloy) or 1.1 kg (steel).
It is 205 mm long and has a barrel length of 112 mm.
The SP1 is furnished
with standard Glock detachable open sights. The pistol’s sports model is
primarily designed for amateur shooters and athletes that are members of the
International Practical Shooting Confederation.
The new model was
featured for the first time at the 14th IDEX 2019 international arms show in
Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates, on February 17 - 21.
