The Krinkov is NOT a pistol. It has a folding stock on one model and a telescoping wire stock on another.
The fav of Usuma and the Doctor.
Neat meat, but I do not see it as more than a REAL CLOSE up last minute, last resort kind of thing.

Pistol? Nahhhhhhhhhh!

The Russian tankisti I've chatted with do NOT call their AKS-74U shorty versions of the AK the *Krinkov*, but malysh, [little naughty fella] okurok, [cigarette butt] suchka, [slut] or Xusha [little Xena]. You are correct that the AKS-74U in the 5.45 caliber chambering has a stock, but the American *Krinkov* pistol variants do not- and they are indeed manufactured, licensed and sold as pistols, often using Yugoslav or Bulgarian components, and usually in the older 7,62x39mm M43 Kalishnikov cartridge.

Neat meat, but I do not see it as more than a REAL CLOSE up last minute, last resort kind of thing.

Point is, the 5.45 bullet has a better chance of penetrating soft body armour than 9x18mm PM or 9x19mm Parabellum pistol ammunition. But a better pick for that sort of thing would be the Canareyka [canary] version, with silencer and BS1 Tishina GP30 suppressed grenade launcher fitted.

Pistol? Nahhhhhhhhhh!

Pistol indeed the *Krinkov* is. The feds have so decreed.
