LoginPP-2000
The PP-2000 is a Russian submachine gun developed by the KBP Instrument Design Bureau of Tula, Russia. This modern-looking weapon debuted at Interpolytech weapons trade show in 2004. It is designed specifically to use Russian 7N21 and 7N31 overpressure 9x19mm ammunition, with the intent being to produce armour-piercing capability to compete in the vaguely-defined PDW market. The PP-2000 can also fire conventional 9x19mm Parabellum rounds.
It is a conventional blowback-operated weapon and weighs 1.5 kg (3.3 lb) empty. The PP-2000 is designed as a close-quarter combat weapon, intended for riot police and special operations forces. In 2008, it was adopted as one of the two standard SMGs of the Russian police, along with the Vityaz-SN. An unusual feature of the weapon is the ability to store a spare 44-round magazine at the rear of the gun, where it functions as a stock (a wire folding stock is also available). Another unusual feature is that the charging handle is located directly behind the front sight and folds out of the way when not in use.
