Very nice to see the photos and videos of the Stechkin in action.
I believe those are no longer made?
Molot plant made Stechkin small batch for pilots of combat helicopters and bombers in 2019
Arrow on foto year of production

That is very cool.
I found a video of Larry Vickers putting the Stechkin through its paces.
Some good closeups and slow motion of the gun in action.
The only full auto handgun that I've ever shot was a Glock 18.
It was surprisingly controllable with the shoulder stock.
The Stechkin looks to be quite shootable.

Sir
Stechkin pistol developed in 1949 year, glock-18 in 90 - 50 years age differences!
Makarov pistol and Stechkin pistol - peers
and Stechkin its military pistol developing in cold war
Some problem this pistol - caliber 9 mm Makarov basic 300 j muzzle energy, in Stechkin -350 j because more longer barrel
All produced no more then 20000-30000 Stechkin pistols, because developing AKS-74U

I've fired the 74u.
Not a bad little weapon..but loud!
I'd hate to shoot that indoors with no hearing protection.

Russianshooter,
I did find my Glock 18 video.
As you can see, it took me a little bit by surprise with the first burst.
I wasn't expecting such a high rate of fire.
Once I knew what to expect, it wasn't hard to control.

Of all the submachine guns that I have fired, the one I would like to own is the PapaSha (PPSh-41)
In WW2, the Soviets really had the submachine gun down pat. I'd take one of those over the Thompson, Sten, Grease Gun, MP38, UZI, etc.
I only wished that it wouldn't eject straight up. When under cover, with a low ceiling, the empties would hit the roof and bounce back on top of my head.
To be fair, this is a military weapon and this is not an issue if you are wearing a helmet or if you are outside.
