FK BRNO PSD Pistol

This is the much anticipated FK Brno PSD pistol, and it really is exciting to have it here on the range at Ancient City. You know, I've shot this pistol a lot in Europe. Of course, I was involved in some of the development of this pistol to enhance some of its capabilities and bring it to market in a better way, I think, for the U S market and for military, law enforcement, armed professionals, and what's really cool about this thing is, of course, is first and foremost is that it is a much more affordable version of the FK Brno pistol, designed around the incredibly impressive 7.5 FK round. Now, this round of course is designed to emulate the terminal ballistics to performance at 100 meters of an AK 47 round, but out of a five to six inch barrel pistol, and it does it marvelously, and of course you can see a lot of videos on the internet of both live tissue testing, hunting boars, large wild boars, large game animals, and of course, the ballistic gelatin test, and penetration tests that had been done with it, and it's amazing, I think, that this all comes out of a relatively normal sized pistol, right? And this FK Brno PSD pistol is just that it holds 16 plus one rounds of the 7.5 caliber ammunition, and of course there are a lot of different variations of that. There's a soft point. These are machined copper rounds known as the F5 and the new F9 round is going to be available in the U.S. as well. Let's talk specifically about the PSD. The PSD pistol of course, is a polymer framed gun. You can see that it does have a metal magwell and that magwell is designed specifically to take the folding brace, which can be used with this pistol. It's a non-NFA item. Originally, the folding stock for the FK Brno field pistol is an NFA item and that's another big improvement in this model for the U S market. You can see that it has an accessory rail, so you can put your white light or a laser on there. And the slide does come precut for a wide variety of red dot sights, so I have a hollow sun on here now, you can see that the ghost ring sites that come with the gun also are suppressor height. In other words, they can be used as a pass through on your red dot if you put it on there. Now, of course, there's no reason to try to suppress this round, which is moving as 2000 feet per second when it comes out of the barrel, but the idea of having the high-enough sites to work with the red dot, that's important as well. They do come with standard site alignment site picture, three dot sites, just notch and blade sites, as well as an option. Remember, all of this comes in the package for a price well under $2,000, that's less than a third of the price of the FK Brno field pistol that was originally released. Now, it is a single action gun, and as you know, I'm a big advocate of striker-fired guns without manual safety levers, but there's simply no way to be able to build this gun at this high equality, and get the terminal performance that you want, with the precision that you want at a hundred meters with that kind of trigger system, so that's why the compromise here to the single action trigger. Obviously, the safety is built up. The slide stop is built up. The magazine release is built up. Also, this is intended to be used by professionals, potentially PSD, protective services division, or special operations teams, and here's one of the coolest things about the PSD. It's a multi-caliber platform, and that means that you can shoot a multiple number of rounds at it with a simple barrel conversion, and in some cases, a magazine swap, you can shoot 40 caliber, 10 millimeter auto or even 9 millimeter NATO, as well as the 7.5 FK round. What's that mean? That means for an armed professional, you can train a significant majority of the time with commonly available in the inventory, nine millimeter NATO rounds, and then of course put your 7.5 FK round in to acclimate to recoil, to acclimate to the performance at extended ranges, in terms of your point of aim and point of impact, and use that operationally, or use that for hunting, so you've got an incredibly fast shooting 9 millimeter that you can take to the range with your friends, put the 7.5 in and use that as a hunting round, or whatever other application you're thinking about. Obviously, it's here. I want to shoot it. We've got a target set up out there. Now, again, this gun is primarily designed to be used at extended ranges in a hunting environment or in a professional environment. What we're going to do right now is just shoot it here at about 30 yards, and we're going to see how this works, and you can watch the recoil. You can watch the ability to manage recoil because of the proprietary recoil system, which sits underneath the barrel and actually has a weight that's moving with the movement of the slide, and that really does a lot as it goes back forward to help the guns settle whether you're shooting the full-power rounds or any of the other rounds, and you can see how we get very easy to shoot. Very easy to put. . . Into that high center chest target. I might have one that's out there to the left, but they're most part, all of those are inside of that high center chest, the FK Brno PSD pistol. Really excited to see it here in the U.S. it should be available through retailers and distributors that you can contact If you're interested in one of these, or reach out to me through Personal Defense Network. Again, I'm intimately familiar with the pistol, its design, its implementation, and exactly what it's intended for. It's super impressive, and I think that it's going to be a great addition for a lot of collectors, obviously, but I do expect we're going to see some armed professionals choosing this round particularly when it gets made into a PDW type four points of contact firearm in the near future.
