3D Animation: How the Russian GSh-18 Pistol works

The GSh-18 is a striker-fired semi-automatic pistol developed by the KBP Instrument Design Bureau in Tula during the 1990s and chambered in 9mm (9x19mm Parabellum). The pistol’s name is derived from its designers Gryazev and Shipunov and its double stack magazine with a capacity of 18 rounds. The GSh-18 is a rotating-barrel, short recoil, locked-breech pistol with 10 locking lugs spaced equally around the barrel. The GSh-18 may be employed using standard 9x19mm Parabellum rounds, but was designed for the high velocity 7N31 9x19mm round. Check out our Gun Apparel at: We ship worldwide.
