Dear friends, here is the Russian Guard put forward another initiative that is currently in the discussion stage. Those interested can read the full text at the link above. In short: there is no urgent need for these changes; Apparently the officials/officials within the system want to show their efficiency and intend to change at least something. I'm not against changes that are needed, but this situation seems dangerous. 1) It is now suggested to perform any weapon modification (even with light parts) only through the workshop. (including replacing the hand guard, installing a sight). This cannot be realized in our reality. Not all regions have certified workshops. To visit the workshop, a referral must be taken from the LRO inspector, which will lead to a sharp load on all departments, will sharply reduce sales in the weapon tuning market, Russian private companies will suffer losses and at the very least will stop producing new items, and at the most will be closed. Plus a question: How are you going to control what the hunter installed on his tail in the woods? And does it really make sense? 2) The mechanism of purchasing weapons by shooting ranges is getting more and more complicated. Yeah, it doesn't seem to concern us regular shooters much, but life isn't sweet for shooting organizations anyway. We expect a further increase in the cost of renting the galleries, a further reduction in the range of bullets in ranges, another wave of closing ranges and in a few years a wave of weapon malfunctions. Old races will remain, but new ones will not come. 3) A new definition of "weapon mechanisms" has been introduced and the user is forbidden to interfere with them in any way. Another blow to athletes. You will not be able to adjust the gas block/recoil buffer and other components for a more stable and comfortable operation of the weapon. Such things cannot be adjusted once and for all in the workshop! Sporting firearms require fine tuning for cartridge/weather/gun life.
