Yo, listen up, gun enthusiasts! Let me introduce you to Peter Andreevich Tkachev, the rockstar small arms engineer from TsNIITochMash in Klimovsk. This dude was so good at his job that he snagged the prestigious Hero of Socialist Labor medal. But that’s not all – he’s the mastermind behind the “BARS” Balanced Automatic Recoil System, which he designed for the badass AO-38 prototype. Talk about a Second Amendment legend!
