    Definitely not KSVK, just from a glance there are multiple differences between the KSVK and the rifle shown, namely the design of the bolt.

    EDIT: Also, taking a closer look, the rifle shown isn't even bullpup like the KSVK

    Pretty sure as the Firearmblog says it's small-scale factory or workshop level production based on freely available enthusiast designs. As such, if it has a designation, it's known only to the chaps in the photos.

    The Croats produced all sorts of wierd stuff during the Balkans wars

    the Sovs did the same during the siege of Leningrad

    and the Pakistanis have a town in the north west that does pretty much nothing else

    At a glance it resembled the Polish WKW Wilk / Tor. It looks more similar to the Serbu though.

    I didn't say it wasn't possible I was just surprised about the large caliber. How accurate can they be anyway?

    Later we copied the PPS to make the M/44 smg http://www.varusteleka.com/product/d...I7U&lang=en_US
    The russians copied from us first though Suomi KP/31 = PPSh-41

    So it's some sort of rifle pieced together in an underground factory/workshop then?

    Is it single shot, or are the magazines just not in place?
