  • The Obrez is without a doubt one of the worst weapons I have ever handled. It's a Mosin Nagant made into a pistol and was done as a necessity in a time and place where pistols were scarce but a concealable weapon was needed. The results was the most cursed of all guns to have ever been made. Today we review the Obrez.

      "Obrez" in russian relates to just about any rifle with cut down barrel - usually for concealment purposes. Typically a double-barrel hunting rifle could undergo such "mod" by criminals, or another famous case - RPD LMG cut down by USA rangers in Vietnam - no precision, but compact/lighter and good for suppression fire in the jungle.
      Mosin was often cut down by "counter-revolution elements" to resist Soviet NKVD/ChK/militia or to be used in robberies/etc.
      Technically it can be done not only by sawing but by shooting a rifle with its barrel partially submerged in water.

    I seen a guy shooting a custom built 30-06 a few years ago. It had a custom barrel that was smooth bore until the end were it had 2.5 inches of rifling which was only a 2 groove rifling. It was smashing out 1 inch groups at 400 yards with 160grain bullets.
    Apparently the gun was originally built back in the early 60s for target shooting in a sled. I don’t know many details on it as it was about 10 years ago. But the short rifling always impressed me he talked about less bullet deterioration, Less barrel fouling ect. The range was only 400 yards but I’m sure it would stay sub MOA at 1000. For a 70+ year old gun that’s impressive to me.

    Step 1: remove pistol grip
    Step 2: atach the obrez to the bottom of any Assault rifle of choice in a way that has the Bolt going up when closed (or atach It to the side in a way that has the Bolt going over the handguard)
    Step 3 (optional): atach a trigger linkage system on the side of the obrez to make It easier to fire in the underbarrel configuration.
    End result: underbarrel/sidebarrel obrez.

    You know, looking at the recoil in slow-motion it just occurred to me that fitting that thing with an ergonomic revolver grip would probably make all the difference in the world.

    Actually, considering the unstability of this "pistol´s" round, it makes it even more dangerous. It´ll tumble heavily upon impact and would make a lot more damage than just piercing 7.62x54 mm bullet. So from close range this thing would chop down any man. And even when hitting an arm or leg, it´d be "game over" in first shot.

      and let's be reasonable, no one will snipe with this thing. It's more of a conceal and shoot when you are certain to hit.

      7x62x54r being unstable??? It flies very straight. Do you mean the 7.62x39???
      Or do you just mean the lack of barrel??

    3:03 The way he said _"cursed"_ is more cursed than the U-Obrez that he showcased.
    And the sound of that Obrez reminds me of one of the shotguns from CS 1.6.

    I remember when Dice added this weapon to battlefield 1.
    They basically allowed those armed with smgs and shotguns to carry a shortened rifle as a backup for long distance targets.
