Download or read book Official Soviet PK Machine Gun Manual written by and published by Paladin Press. This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed by Mikhail Kalashnikov for the Soviet military, the Pulemyot Kalashnikova (PK) was introduced in the early 1960s as a replacement for the SGM and RPD machine guns. The general-purpose 7.62mm Kalashnikov -- PK, PKS (on a tripod), PKB (armored transporters), PKT (tank), PKM (modernized) -- is a powerful automatic weapon intended to defeat enemy personnel and weapons systems. The Soviet Ministry of Defense published this instruction manual for the use and maintenance of the PK in 1987, and this is the first time an English translation has been made available to the general public. The translation is very timely because U.S. military personnel in both Iraq and Afghanistan are facing this machine gun in the hands of insurgents. At the same time, U.S. instructors are training Iraqi and Afghan soldiers in the employment of the PK, and this manual will be a valuable tool for them to use in their instruction.

Download or read book Soviet Pistols written by Leroy Thompson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-27 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the absorbing story of the development, combat use and legacy of the influential sidearms used by the armed forces of the Soviet Union. Featuring archive and present-day photography and specially commissioned artwork, this is the story of the pistols that armed the forces of the Soviet Union and its allies during and after World War II. In 1930 the TT, a single-action semi-automatic pistol developed by Fedor Vasilyevich Tokarev and firing 7.62×25mm ammunition, began to supplement the venerable Nagant M1895 revolver in Soviet military service. From 1933 the TT-33, a simplified version, was also issued; all three would equip Soviet and proxy forces throughout and after World War II, seeing action across the globe. In 1951 a new pistol designed by Nikolay Fyodorovich Makarov entered Soviet service; it became the primary Soviet military and police sidearm during the Cold War era and continued in use into the 21st century. The 9×18mm Makarov round was used in various weapons used by Soviet allies, notably the Czech vz 82, the Hungarian FÉG PA63 and the Polish P64 and P83.The PM was quickly joined by the Stechkin machine pistol. Other specialized versions of the Makarov were developed, including the PB suppressed version and the 5.45×18mm PSM, a more compact version. Initially developed in 1990, the improved PMM version of the Makarov was intended primarily to increase the stopping power of the 9×18mm round by chambering a higher-pressure load. In this study, noted weaponry expert Leroy Thompson tells the story of the Tokarev, Makarov, Stechkin and other handguns in service with Soviet and other forces around the world, exploring the development, combat use and legacy of these formidable firearms.

Book Synopsis Hostage Rescue Manual by : Leroy Thompson
Download or read book Hostage Rescue Manual written by Leroy Thompson and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2005-01-08 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive illustrated overview of the dynamic operations that have saved lives in hostage situations around the world. Based on strategies proven successful in numerous incidents, including the landmark SAS rescue at Prince’s Gate, London, and compiled by an author with intimate and practical knowledge of the field, this book explains why the success of a rescue is often determined in the hours leading up to confrontation. Once an incident is contained, a large share of the responsibility for a successful conclusion rests with the hostage negotiator, whose job is to save the lives of both hostage and hostage-taker. But if negotiations fail, it becomes necessary to send in the hostage-rescue team to resolve the situation by force and skill. Hostage Rescue Manual explains the complex factors that determine the entry methods undertaken by a team, with discussion of the pros and cons of stealth versus dynamic approaches, plus the significance of distraction in securing successful site entry. Operations in widely differing locations from nuclear power plants to airliners are detailed, as are the range of special weapons available to the men and women tackling each incident. We learn of the multiple roles played by participants, such as the use of snipers as intelligence sources. With vivid photographs and diagrams of rescue units in action, Hostage Rescue Manual is the complete reference work on counter-terrorist procedures all over the world. This revised edition updates the book with an entirely new section devoted to developments in hostage rescue, among them operations in Russia and Iraq, since first publication.

Book Synopsis The Official Soviet Mosin-Nagant Sniper Rifle Manual by :
Download or read book The Official Soviet Mosin-Nagant Sniper Rifle Manual written by and published by Paladin Press. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mosin-Nagant bolt-action rifle is the most basic of the Russian and Soviet small arms. Before being replaced by the snayperskaya vintovka Dragunova (SVD) in the 1960s, the selected, scoped version of the rugged Mosin-Nagant was the principal sniper rifle of the Soviet army and of many Eastern European militaries. It is still used in many conflicts because of the large numbers in which it was produced. This manual, available in English for the first time, is entirely devoted to the sniper version of the 1891/30 Mosin-Nagant rifle with PU scope. It covers disassembly and assembly, cleaning and lubricating, and other general technical information, but its real value lies in the sniper-specific tactics it contains. Instructions and illustrations are included for the following topics: sniper firing positions; battlefield observation points; range estimation; how to fire at stationary, fleeting, moving and aerial targets; two ballistic tables; and much more. This is a must-have reference for Mosin-Nagant rifle and sniper enthusiasts.
