Aerosol pistol Dobrynya - looks almost exactly like a real one

June 26, 2021

The Dobrynya aerosol device is a pistol developed by the A+A plant in Tula for self-defense, which does not require any licenses or permits for carrying and use in emergency situations. BAMs of 18×51 caliber are used as ammunition, but it also includes adapters for BAMs 13×50. Why do we need adapters for another caliber? The answer is simple, 18×51 does not have idle bams, but 13×50 does.

In case of an emergency, we can not only defend ourselves with pepper/mixed BAMs, but also give a signal or scare off the animal with a blank shot. The magazine holds 5 rounds. First we load 4 pepper guns and last we load the blank. As a result, we get the first shot in the air, so we make it clear to the ill-wisher that we have a weapon, but if this does not stop him, we shoot with pepper and call the police. The pistol has no batteries, good old mechanics.

Common features

In fact, it is not so easy to understand which is better, the Dobrynya or Pioneer pistol, because they, like the Premier, the third participant in this review, have quite a lot in common:

• have a pistol shape;
• manufactured by A+A;
• sold without a license;
• shoot liquid gas at 1-5 meters;
• do not injure the attacker.

Made from frosted gun-grade plastic, each has a guaranteed lifespan of 1,000 rounds and can be used indoors. But there is still a difference.

Differences

Despite the fact that pistols from A+A have much in common, each of the samples under consideration has its own characteristics:

Dobrynya

Looks like a real weapon. It can fire 18x51 and 50x13 mm calibers, light-noise, blank and gas ammunition. It has a mechanical tight trigger, aiming is carried out using the rear sight and front sight, the weapon fits well in a man’s palm, and is quite large: 140x28x125 mm.

Dobrynya has the largest number of shots - 5 BAMs are placed in the handle, and if necessary, you can quickly reload, since the breech is open, which makes it the best option for repelling a group attack.

Premier

Outwardly it resembles the well-known OSA traumatic pistol. Charged with 18x55 ammunition with a maximum gas content: 4 ml. Versions are available for 2 and 4 charges, with and without a laser pointer. The trigger is electronic; if one ammunition fails to fire, another will immediately fire.

It is infected with cassettes of 4 or 2 shots, alternating with the muzzle. It is advisable to carry this type of weapon in a holster, since the trigger is quite light and there is no safety lock. In addition, the holster makes it easier to draw the pistol in times of danger. It can be hidden or openly worn.

Pioneer

It also has a pistol shape and is loaded with 18x51 and 50x13 ammunition; the kit includes an adapter for firing the “Hunter Signal”. They produce options with and without a laser pointer.

The trigger in the pistol is mechanical, loading is carried out using cassettes, an additional replaceable cassette is stored in the handle. Thus, the owner of the pistol has the opportunity to fire 2 shots, reload and shoot twice more, and if you buy additional cartridges, the number of shots increases.

Bicaliber allows access to a wide range of ammunition, allowing you to combine different active ingredients and different calibers when shooting.

Feasibility of alterations

Any expert, a person with a higher technical education will answer that converting an aerosol pistol into a traumatic weapon is a stupid and dangerous idea that is not worth the time and finances.

The Dobrynya pistol itself, without modification, is quite effective in street skirmishes. With the help of various BAMs you can hit attackers at a distance of up to 5 meters. Types of projectiles:

1. Noise.
2. Tear-producing ones.
3. Peppers.
4. Marking.

At the same time, the use of any type of projectile does not exceed permitted self-defense measures.

To understand how effective the Dobrynya aerosol gun is, you need to analyze customer reviews. Having studied the information received, the following points can be highlighted:

1. The plastic from which the pistol body is made can withstand falls from a height of 2-3 meters. However, strong impacts cause cracks and chips.
2. When comparing this weapon to other aerosol guns, the size is slightly larger than average. For this reason, they are uncomfortable using one hand.
3. The pistol can be fired quickly without recoil. However, the trigger is tight. Because of this, with active use, the index finger will hurt at first.
4. Branded cartridges are powerful and effective. There is no point in looking for analogues.
5. The effective range differs from the declared range for the worse. The maximum accurate hitting distance is 3 meters.
6. When firing, the barrel gets dirty. Because of this, you need to carry a cloth with you so that you can wipe it off without getting your clothes dirty.
7. A separate complaint concerns the adapters for firing cans from the Udar pistol. Those adapters that come with the kit are extremely tight. They break down often, which is why it is recommended to have as many spare ones as possible.

If for some reason the desire to convert an aerosol gun into a traumatic one has not disappeared, you need to talk about its effectiveness. In most cases, a shot from such a weapon is fraught with destruction of the structure and injury to its owner.

How can you improve Dobrynya

On the Internet you can find many stories about the modification of Dobrynya pistols, similar aerosol weapons. If we don’t talk about completely remaking the product for injury, we can highlight several other options for homemade modifications:

To increase the wear resistance and reliability of the gun, some home craftsmen make a new metal body. At the same time, internal plastic parts can be replaced with metal ones. This will significantly increase the durability of the weapon and give it a more impressive appearance. However, in order to replace the parts of the case, its filling with a metal mechanism, plates, you will need special equipment and experience working with metal

At the same time, it is important to make each part strictly according to size so that the gun does not break during the shot.

In addition, traumatic pistols produced in factories have a number of advantages:

1. Reliability, durability.
2. Most parts are made of metal, making them wear-resistant and resistant to active use.
3. Attractive appearance.

However, there are also disadvantages:

1. Low accuracy of fire.
2. Heavy weight, large dimensions.
3. Inconvenient to use with one hand.
4. High price.
5. Permission required.

If there are no problems with documents and finances, it is better to choose a purchased weapon to protect yourself from numerous problems.

Your personal hero

More recently, in the summer of 2015, my cousin was attacked. She was picking up her older child from school; the younger one was sleeping peacefully in a stroller. It was during the day and not far from the school. My sister was robbed. She escaped with fright, scratches on her neck and the loss of gold worth approximately 25 thousand (2 gold chains, one of which is openwork, a cross and an icon). After this incident, we started thinking about how to protect ourselves on the city streets. I already had 2 pepper sprays: one highly concentrated dog spray and one regular one. As a result, my husband bought me a “DOBRYNYA” “pistol”. My husband helped me write this review; he is against the “DOBRYNA” being called a pistol, so later in the review I will refer to it as a device, as it is called in the technical data sheet.

We will talk about a self-defense device that has recently appeared on the market, the aerosol device model “DOBRYNYA”, manufactured by “A+A”, Tula. The device is designed for shooting pyromechanical cartridges BAM-OS.000 18x5, as well as BAMs with a diameter of 13 mm and a length of 50 mm (using adapters). BAM is a small-sized aerosol can, used in this device as cartridges. In other words, the device shoots a jet of liquid that irritates the skin and eyes (red hot pepper extract), which also makes breathing difficult when it enters the respiratory tract. The range of this device is up to 3m. Native BAMs contain a larger amount of erythant (that same burning liquid) and throw it at a greater distance than BAMs 13x50, but the active substance in them is not the most vigorous, say, BAMs 13x50 (black widow) in addition to red pepper concentrate also contain substances that facilitate the penetration of the composition through cell membranes, which accelerates and enhances the effect of use (like in a good cream, it acts not only on the surface of the skin, but also penetrates into the deep layers of the epidermis))))). The multi-caliber nature of this device is its advantage over other similar devices (the prefix -bi explains everything, I think different BAMs fit it).

The device was packaged in a rectangular blue cardboard box the size of the device itself. Also included are instructions - a small book of coated paper with large font, the instructions are very detailed with pictures and tables. The kit includes: device, adapter, passport, plastic bag, consumer packaging. A holster for the device, if you need it, will have to be purchased separately, just like BAMs, without which this device is completely meaningless. “DOBRYNYA” comes with a 1-year warranty when operating no more than 1000 shots. The device cost 2800 rubles. A set of 4 original BAMs cost 400 rubles, and a set of “black widow” BAMs cost 350 rubles for 5 cans. For comparison, a regular pepper spray costs from 400 to 500 rubles, and it has 1 spray of power.

“DOBRYNYA” is made of black weapon-grade plastic. The plastic had no smell even immediately after purchase. It feels quite pleasant to the touch. All elements of the trigger mechanism are steel. The device consists of two halves connected by seven self-tapping screws painted in the color of the body. My husband doesn’t really like the screws in this device, but they don’t bother me.

When I first tried to pull the trigger, the muzzle went to the side, and it was very difficult to press the trigger. After 2 presses, the joint in my finger started to hurt. My husband let a colleague at work try to pull the trigger, but she did the same. The hook is very tight, it is difficult to press it accidentally, but it is also quite difficult to apply it not accidentally. My husband corrected this oversight of the manufacturers for me, but it turns out that without additional intervention, it is almost impossible for a woman to use “KIND.” This is a significant disadvantage for purchasing this self-defense product.

Pros of this device:

2. good ergonomics. It fits comfortably in the hand and has a serious look; in a dark alley, a person not very familiar with weapons can mistake it for a pistol))))

3. good assembly. All seams are smooth. The parts are connected with self-tapping screws. There is nothing loose or creaking. “DOBRYNYA” looks and feels monolithic. The mechanics work reliably.

4. Mechanical initiation of charge does not require batteries or other consumables; you only need to monitor the expiration date of the BAMs.

1. Very tight descent. In conventional combat pistols, the spring is cocked by the movement of the free bolt. In this device, such technology cannot be used due to the fact that the mass of the projectile being thrown, as well as the power of the capsule charge, is insufficient. Therefore, the designers had to shift the effort to overcome the return and mainsprings to the user.

2. shot BAMs fly up at high speed, which is not very convenient when used in a car since used BAMs contain liquid residues and can stain the interior.

3. quite wide handle. It may be uncomfortable for people with small hands.

4. The device is quite large. It will not fit in every handbag or every pocket.

I would like to share my experience in eliminating the main disadvantage of this device:

To reduce the force on the trigger when firing, you can “set” the return spring a little. To do this, you need to put it on a 3mm stud, tighten it at both ends with nuts and leave it overnight. Try not to overdo it with compressing the spring, because after this the release becomes easier, you need to make sure that the trigger always returns to its original position completely, and otherwise the mainspring sear will not engage and pressing the trigger will not lead to a shot, but only to the ejection of unused BAM on the return stroke.

I recommend DOBRYNA, but before purchasing, I advise you to go to the store and ask them to let you press the trigger, or you will have to ask for help in correcting the defect - the trigger is too tight.

Is it true that plastic is being developed over time and cartridges are starting to “walk” in Dobrynya?

Dobrynya is made not from ordinary plastic, but from weapons-grade plastic. It has a large margin of safety. The manufacturer guarantees stable operation of the pistol for 1000 shots or 1 year of use - a very decent period, so there is no need to worry about this.

Do I need to clean Dobrynya?

There is no barrel in the usual sense, there is no chamber, and the ammunition - BAM - is a small-sized aerosol can, which, after a shot, is fired to the side, and the next ammunition takes its place and the cycle repeats. The gun is designed in such a way that virtually no dirt gets inside it, and it does not require cleaning or lubrication.

How long can you carry Dobrynya loaded without fear that the feeder spring will fail?

You can wear it charged for an unlimited amount of time - this will not affect the fatigue of the spring metal in any way.

The expiration date has passed, but I didn’t have a chance to shoot: is it possible to use expired BAM?

The active substance in BAM erodes over time and loses concentration. Therefore, after the expiration date, the effect of the irritant on the mucous membranes may be greatly weakened, and the ignition system in the cartridges may also become unusable over time. Therefore, it is not recommended to use expired ammunition.

Are there adapters to attach the GROM to Dobrynya, does it fire the Hunter Signal?

No. The only pleasure available to the owner of Dobrynya is the opportunity to shoot 13x50 blank cartridges, which make a loud sound when fired. There are options with a Zhevelo capsule, which are quite loud and smoky.

Does Dobrynya shoot with flash-noise cartridges Grom?

No. For it, only bamas of caliber 18x51 or 13x50 are used (via adapters)

Does the spring of the bam feeding mechanism weaken if you keep Dobrynya fully charged with 5 bams for a long time?

Yes, slightly, but it weakens because it is in a fully compressed state, subject to constant load. For long-term storage of the device in combat-ready condition, we recommend equipping the pistol with not 5, but 4 barrels, which will significantly reduce the load on the spring mechanism, maintaining its functionality for many years.

No, its function is partially taken over by the trigger guard of the device, and partially by the difficult movement of the trigger.

Factory packaging and complete set.

The Dobrynya five-shot aerosol gas pistol is supplied in the classic light blue cardboard box familiar to users of A+A devices.

On the front side of the package there is a large photo of a pistol with a bright red inscription: “Dobrynya”.

• the Dobrynya pistol itself (in a plastic bag),
• device passport,
• 5 (five) adapters for smaller caliber bams (13x50, 13x60), and 3 adapters are already inside the device, simulating its charge, and 2 more are in a small bag separately.

Complete set of Dobrynya pistol.

Ammunition

Standard charges for this pistol are considered to be cylinders of the BAM-OS.000 type (18x51). They are also produced by Tula. Each ammunition contains four cubic centimeters of active substance (red pepper extract). When fired at a distance of five meters, a spot with dimensions of 400x300 millimeters is formed.

When using special adapters, it is possible to use BAMs of a smaller caliber (13x50 mm). Their price is lower, but their power is also less. These charges are optimally suited for training shooting; they can be loaded simply with ordinary water. The design of the pistol allows the use of charges with other irritants and noise ammunition.

The purpose of the device and the types of booms used in shooting.

Dobrynya is a self-defense pistol with a wide spectrum of action. Designed to protect against aggressive dogs and inadequate, hostile people. The effectiveness of the impact is achieved as a result of the irritant (the contents of bam) getting into the face (muzzle) of the enemy.

Pepper or other gas ejected from the barrel, upon contact with the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, mouth (mouth), causes severe irritation, accompanied by painful and toxic shock.

Your opponent will be stunned, blinded and so dumbfounded that for the next 30 minutes he will not be able to take active action, but will only be busy with how to get rid of the caustic substance that is burning his entire face!

When firing noise booms (using adapters), a very loud bang occurs, similar to the sound of a shot from a military weapon. You can easily scare away any dog ​​with such a shot or have a psychological effect on a person.

Types of bam for the Dobrynya pistol.

Peculiarities

When fired, an aerosol gun produces a jet similar to a gas canister. At the same time, the device can be used in closed and cramped spaces (elevator, car, etc.). Also, the specified weapon is safe for the user in windy or rainy weather, since it does not form an extensive cloud mass. When the working substance comes into contact with the mucous membrane, it has a very strong irritating effect, burning, discharge from the nasopharynx and copious amounts of saliva.

As a result, the attacker becomes disoriented and cannot perform active actions for 10-15 minutes. At the same time, the gas does not cause significant harm to the body with irreversible consequences. The device in question can be purchased without special permission to store or carry it. Compactness and low weight make the pistol convenient for transportation, including concealed.

Operating principle.

When you press the trigger with your finger, the firing pin is activated. The firing pin, in turn, activates the striker, which strikes the primer of the upper bam, breaking it. In this case, the irritant (pepper gas) is released from the body of the bam, which, under powerful pressure, flies in a wide-directional jet over a distance of up to 5 meters.

When the trigger is released after a shot, the used bam is thrown vertically upward by the feeder spring through the hole in the Dobrynya body, and a new bam automatically takes its place.

Dimensions and operation

Consumers note that the special equipment in question weighs very little (only 175 when uncharged) and is small in size. Thanks to its parameters, the Dobrynya aerosol self-defense device easily fits in a handbag, purse, or pockets, which guarantees its concealed carrying.

In addition, the manufacturers have provided a proprietary holster for the pistol. The body of the weapon is made of cast reinforced plastic, the working elements are made of metal. Reliability and reliability are ensured by powerful springs, an improved striker design and excellent ergonomic qualities.

The pistol in question is loaded from above with five BAMs, which are placed in a clip built into the handle. After the shot is fired, the used cartridge case is automatically discarded, it is removed without the need for a subsequent salvo, by pressing a special key in the breech compartment.

Technical characteristics of the pistol:

The Dobrynya aerosol spray device has the following parameters.

The Dobrynya aerosol device can be additionally equipped with:

Advantages of the model and its disadvantages.

The advantages of the device include:

• Striking resemblance to a real combat pistol.
• Easy to use.
• Ammunition: 5 bam (can be loaded and then fired by consistently pressing the trigger).
• The maximum range among analogues to hit a target: 5 meters.
• The kit includes adapters for shooting other types of guns (13x50 mm, 13x60 mm).
• The light weight of the device is perfectly combined with the strength of the case.
• Available without purchasing licenses or special permissions!

The disadvantages of the device can be considered:

• The wide pistol grip and tight trigger make it difficult for the fairer sex to use the device.
• After the shot, a small amount of irritant remains inside the barrel, which it is advisable to remove as soon as possible using a rag.
• When using 13x50 mm bams. or 13x60 mm. with adapters (supplied), the latter fly up when fired and can get lost. Therefore, you should stock up on an additional set of adapters.

Is it possible to convert the Dobrynya aerosol pistol for injury?

We would like to warn you right away that it will not be possible to convert the Dobrynya pistol for injury. The manufacturer took into account this desire of many device owners in advance and made remodeling impossible.

Everything is designed to allow the device to be used without a license exactly as intended. No amount of handicraft modification of traumatic bullets, adapters and other parts of the device will give you the desired result. Use what has already been created in the form in which it is.

Owner reviews.

• Based on many reviews from owners of Dobrynya aerosol devices, the main important points can be identified:
• The pistol has a tight trigger, which makes shooting difficult for women.
• Accurate aimed shooting is possible up to 4 meters.
• After use (after firing), part of the irritant remains inside the gun, so each time you need to wipe the barrel with a rag.
• When using adapters, the latter fly out after a shot and are lost, so you need to have a sufficient supply of them.

History of creation

The progenitor of the Dobrynya aerosol device in domestic open spaces is a modification of UDAR (a device for dosed aerosol spraying). It was developed on the basis of special liquid kits “Violet” and “Jasmine”. They have been used since the 80s of the last century by KGB officers as non-lethal weapons.

The device is aimed at detaining criminals in public places where the use of firearms was unacceptable. Standard BAM models differ from special versions in a lower content of irritating composition, an increased diameter of the nozzle opening, and the absence of a powder sample. Among other competitors of the device in question:

1. "Bamer" from Nizhny Novgorod designers.
2. "Sorcerer".
3. "Premier". Both modifications are represented by the Tula one.

The modern version of the Dobrynya aerosol device was released in 2016. The pistol was named after a famous character from legends, a valiant hero known for his courage and daring. The new product has entered mass production and is supplied to specialized trade enterprises.
