Willy is correct. That isn't a grenade launcher... it's the magazine.

The Bizon shoots 9mm rounds.

If you take a close look, you'll see those are not PP-19's. Those are AK's with some sort of tubes zip-tied to the bottom of them.

So it's a submachine gun with a tubular mag?

That's not a grenade launcher. Let's not forget that NK is at least 2 decades behind the rest of the world and they've just discovered pogs

Bizon is made by Kalashnikov.

Whatever those soldiers have strapped across their chests is too long to be a PP-19.

You can't load a fricking mag in the weapon.




And if they were loaded, each rifle is pointed at the man to the lefts face. Not at the ground. Any weapon went off during a March and guy is losing an eye. At best.

Bingo. That "grenade launcher" is blocking where the magazine goes and it lacks any visible trigger or way to even load it. It looks like they took some PVC, painted it black, and zip tied it to and Airborne version of an AK.

Feels like that's probably for the best since they're pointed at each other's faces.

I understand. But like I said, if you look closely you can see these are no PP-19's. They're too long. Plus the gas tube is different.

Like, I get that war is hell and people would die, but I think it would be hilarious to see these people fight the Chinese or something. For all their pomp and boasting, could they even pretend to fight a real war?

My specialty in the USAF was Russia. Anyone with Korean experience care to comment cleared information in general about N. K. ? It seems like the global powers just let these guys act up as much as they want. Would removing this jack-arse or his family lineage cause some extreme destabilizing catastrophe and they really aren't the threat they act like they are?

My response was going to be..."do I see zip ties?", but I'm far from an expert. Apparently I did see zip ties! Lmao

Not sure where y'all got the book trigger thing.

You can clearly see the trigger on all the front line guys.
