This is one of my dream guns. I just got a new pdw for home defense. I have an AK, but they're not the best suited, and my girlfriend couldnt handle one at night, in the dark under pressure. So I picked up a stribog sp93G, then decked it out with a light, holosun AEMS pro (amber color, its beautiful), hm3x magnifier (for range day obviously. my house aint that big) and a ported comp. Now its.....well its not nearly as cool as an mp5, but its about the same size, telescoping brace, and similar roller delayed blowback. My gf is very competant with it. Hasn't been off target even once. I'll grab my cinema camera later and put together some shots
Sweet setup! Would love to be able to get my hands on a Stribog. I have a roller delayed AR9, but it's more of a competition gun with the 16" barrel.
I haven't shot very many 9mm pdw's, but this one is easily the smoothest shooting firearm I've touched. Haven't gotten my hands on an mp5 obviously, which I hear is the goat, but this thing is fuckin sweet.
Likely lighter and with better ergos than the MP5, but the MP5 definitely has that Cold War charm. Would the Stribog make a good suppressor host?
I've heard the dead air wolfman is excellent on it, but I dont have the cash for one right now. That's the final purchase I need to "finish"
And yeah, the weight and ergos were exactly why I bought it. I didn't want to have to teach my gf the weird quirks of an HK when I could just say "flip this switch and point at the bad guy". AND she's a fairly small person, the weight of the stribog is already on the higher end for her.

no, bad bot
