KALASHNIKOV USA The American branch of the Kalashnikov concern presented a prototype version of their new AK Alpha assault rifle– unfortunately, only as a mar- keting video clip and a the rapid prototyping model behind the glass. The AK Alpha has the internals of the classic AK which guarantee reliability in any conditions, merged with improved ergonomics and ambidextrous handling. The rigle has no separated safety and fire mode levers – they have been replaced with one, ambidextrous switch. AK Alpha will be offered only on the American market and, at the begin- ning, only in 7.62x39 caliber, in variants AKL with a 16" barrel and AKS with a 12.5" barrel. SPRINGFIELD versions of Croatian-made HS Produkt pistols known Springfield XD in the US market, were present at SHOT. Springfield XD2 Grip Zone has modified and he- pistol grip which offers increased adhesion and width of the slide has also been made narro- the pistol may be comfortably worn when con- standard front sight has an in-built optical fiber view in low-light conditions. One of the variants extended threaded barrel for attaching silencers and devices. COBALT KINETICS Kinetics B.A.M.F. is another variation concerning AR. What does make it unique? Apart from the precise design crafted in aircraft-class aluminum is characterized with a unique solution in form of a system that releases the magazine after shooting round and drops the bolt to the front position after placing another mag in the well. I had the chance to check this option at shooting range and it actually works. However, I would say that the feeling when you notice that the magazine drops auto- matically is quite priceless. What is the use for all of this? To achieve better results during sport competitions. TRADE SHOWS
