EU-Deactivated Russian PPS43 Submachine Gun. The Avtomat (pistolet-poelemjot) obr. 1943 g. (Автомат (пистолет-пулемёт) обр. 1943 г.), also known as PPS (ППС - Пистолет-пулемёт Судаева) is a submachine gun designed by Alexei Sudaev and used by the Soviet Union during World War II. The PPS was designed when the Red Army needed a compact and light weapon that had the same firepower and accuracy as the PPSh-41, but was cheaper. This example is made in 1952 and is fitted with a stick magazine. The PPSh has been deactivated conform the requirements of the common minimum technical specifications set out in Annex I from the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/337 and comes with a Certificate of Deactivation. This PPS is free to own for EU citizens, aged over 18 years. We will sell this PPS only to people above the age of 18 (with proof) within the EU (please check your country's regulations before purchasing). Nice original PPS43 in very good condition!
