Groza-051 with EVO barrel
Like any other things in our world, this pistol has been upgraded by the developer over time, which should have made it better. So, I started developing and then creating the newest model of this weapon - Groza-051 with an EVO barrel.
Outside, no consumer can find any configurations. The developers have one hundred percent preserved the appearance of the old version. The only thing that can be found is that this is a specifically improved version of the trauma weapon, an index indicated on the weapon itself. Thunderstorm-051 is indicated here.
The main difference, as you might have already guessed, lies specifically in the design of the barrel. For its production, a new, higher-quality design is used, which made it possible to improve the technical properties of the weapon and its quality.
A new development in barrel production is called EVO. In its essence, this method of barrel production is a continuation of the development of v4 or v4.1 type barrels. The main advantage here is the barrier, which is installed in any traumatic weapon to exclude the possibility of using iron or live ammunition. Here it is a sleeve of misaligned drilling. They install it directly in front of the chamber, which reduces the load on it and significantly increases its service life. Such development is currently a feature of all modern traumatic weapons.
As the Groza-051 traumatic pistol demonstrated EVO technology, it immediately became very popular. The fact is that thanks to such a barrel, the number of various breakdowns is reduced, and the accuracy of fire is also improved. In general, such a trunk has the following advantages:
- Excellent accuracy when firing any type of cartridge;
- Absence of any significant breaks from the pile;
- There is no need to change the mainspring for certain types of cartridges;
- The recoil of the bolt and the feeding of the cartridge proceed smoothly with all types of cartridges of any power.
As a result, there is a significant improvement in the reliability of the gun. When using cartridges with the highest level of released energy, the Groza-051 pistol will not be inferior to any traumatic weapon. If you shoot cartridges with low energy release, then such a weapon will be even better than many types of trauma weapons. In general, the EVO barrel has become even better in its features than the v4.1 barrel.
Any model has a completely polished chamber with good calibration. The gun magazine is adapted only for 9 mm RA cartridges of any type. Due to the design features that the engineers introduced here, any possibility of the cartridge sticking into the upper part of the chamber is excluded.
After the first few batches, the manufacturer quickly responded to all user reviews with shortcomings and corrected them, offering the Russian market of self-defense weapons a good option. This pistol can, as mentioned above, work with any 9 mm PA cartridges. The features also include that the EVO barrel significantly increases the energy released by weak cartridges.

Main characteristics
In the production of model 051 pistols, manufacturers use innovative technologies, which, in particular, relate to the manufacture of barrels. These technologies are embodied in products that are designated “EVO”. Trauma gun owners should be aware that the earlier versions of the V4 and V4.1 barrels have gradually begun to be replaced. This trend can be seen among other manufacturers as well.
“EVO” barrels are distinguished by the presence of special partitions. These partitions make it impossible to fire a pistol with live ammunition. Also, these barrels provide a high accuracy rate.
The Thunderstorm pistol is based on real military weapons of 9x17 mm and 9x18 mm caliber, therefore it has the same components. Only the barrel, as stated above, is intended only for rubber bullets. The use of polymer materials has its positive aspects:
- the weight of the pistol is reduced;
- comfort when holding or constantly wearing;
- aesthetic appearance;
- corrosion protection.

The Groza pistol is chambered for 9 mm caliber cartridges. Such cartridges are considered the most common, as they are relatively inexpensive in cost. It is possible to choose energy characteristics when purchasing cartridges from different manufacturers.
The weapon is designed not only for shooting with rubber bullets, but also for using gas cartridges. With such a variety of cartridges, for the optimal choice you will need to know the range of uses of the weapon. Accuracy and speed are two indicators that are mutually opposite. That is why it is recommended to choose low-energy cartridges for sporting pistol models.
According to Russian law, a traumatic pistol magazine cannot contain more than 10 rounds. But with special registration, you can increase the magazine capacity, as the manufacturer allows it.
Due to the low mass of the shutter, return springs are installed in the device. To make it easier to work with the shutter, there is a notch on its sides. The trigger mechanism is self-cocking. The fuse has two positions and is located on the left side of the product. The rear sight is adjustable only on models 021 and 031. Other versions of Groza have non-adjustable sighting devices.

Fortunately, there is no such variety with barrels as in previous models of Groz traumatic pistols. The weapon is immediately equipped with a full-fledged V4 barrel, which can be called one of the best solutions for barrel design for traumatic weapons. This barrel does not have any obstacles in its bore in the form of pins, teeth and other “joys”; the manufacturers took a slightly different path in order to prevent shooting with a solid bullet by shifting the axes of the chamber and the bore relative to each other. Despite the fact that the barrel has no obstacles for the bullet in the channel, the channel cannot be called smooth even if one wants to, since there are valleys along it or, as they are incorrectly called in this case, rifling. Naturally, the barrel of the weapon is not rifled, otherwise it would not have passed licensing; what is commonly mistakenly called rifling in these barrels is nothing more than the most natural fullers that weaken the barrel of the weapon, although they still partially took over the function of the rifling, since practice shows that with such a barrel the accuracy of fire is higher than with a smooth and polished one, but in any case, calling these elements rifling is an insult to a full-fledged military weapon. The ammunition that can be used for the Groza-01 traumatic pistol includes the entire range of 9 mm RA traumatic cartridges. The weapon perfectly withstands all the loads that the weapon experiences when firing the most powerful cartridges, but it is still recommended to use less powerful ammunition for training shooting than for self-defense. At the same time, it is also worth considering that if you take very weak cartridges, with a bullet kinetic energy of less than fifty Joules, then the weapon will naturally fire, but constant failures due to the fact that the gun does not reload after firing are inevitable. In view of this, if you plan to use such weak cartridges, you should replace the return spring in the traumatic pistol with a less rigid one. At the same time, you need to understand that without replacing the weak spring with the “native” one, it will be impossible to return to the use of more powerful, and therefore more effective, ammunition. Traumatic pistol Groza-01 It is noteworthy that the weapon, despite the fact that it is completely metal, does not have the greatest weight - only 420 grams, this is on the one hand a huge plus, especially since the traumatic pistol is positioned precisely as a compact weapon, on the other hand it is small weight can cause a lot of trouble, especially for women. The fact is that the recoil when firing from this weapon, although not comparable to the recoil of combat pistols, is still felt and affects the accuracy of shooting, especially if the shots come one after another. The thick handle of the weapon makes shooting much easier, but, nevertheless, you need to know that this model of a traumatic gun has recoil, which is not inherent in heavier models. In addition to the impact of recoil on shooting performance, individual models of weapons can be taken to the right or left, but since the compact class of trauma weapons is primarily a weapon of self-defense, and not recreational shooting, then at a distance of up to 5 meters you can absolutely safely shoot without corrections, there will be no misses. By the way, about the accuracy of shooting from this traumatic pistol. At distances of up to 5 meters, it behaves ideally, but already 10 meters is the limit of its capabilities, the spread increases sharply, and predicting the exact hit of a bullet and its deviation from the aiming point becomes an impossible task, even after a long time of communication with this weapon. However, almost all models of the compact class suffer from such a disease as low accuracy of fire at long distances. But, as mentioned above, for a self-defense weapon this is not at all the biggest disadvantage, since at short distances to the target the pistol’s accuracy is more than enough. A much more pressing issue is that at the moment it is a big problem to choose a holster for a weapon. And if in cold weather this problem is not so acute, since in order to quickly remove the weapon it is simply carried in the pocket of outerwear, then in the warm season the situation will change radically. So we can only hope for the speed of the equipment manufacturers, since the holster from any other pistol fits the Groza-01 with a bang.

Advantages and disadvantages of a pistol
There are several methods for researching consumer opinion. Unfortunately, none of them can give an objective assessment of a particular weapon model. You can only collect statistical data. Analyzing the situation according to the above principle, it can be noted that the main complaints about the Thunderstorm pistol are related to the impossibility of carrying it discreetly. There is, of course, version 01, which is compact, but such models have already been discontinued. Other versions include an extended barrel. This is where the “cons” end.
The merits of the pistol were a topic of discussion in various forums. Indeed, “Thunderstorm” has won the hearts of fans of traumatic weapons.
- A durable body with a high-quality coating makes the barrel durable, and not only the condition, but also the appearance remains attractive.
- At the beginning of the article, the name of traumatic weapons in European countries was mentioned. The Thunder Pistol could indeed be called a less lethal weapon. Thanks to the elongated barrel, its lethal characteristics do not even allow the pistol to be called a weapon of limited destruction.
- To assess the stability of a weapon during recoil, it is necessary to remember basic knowledge of physics. An increase in shot energy will invariably lead to an increase in the impulse that the barrel itself acquires during the shot. The greater the mass of the barrel, the more inert it is, that is, it will have less recoil. The designer’s task is or, in which the gun will be moderately weighty. The weight of our specimen is ideally selected, which has a positive effect on the stability of the barrel when fired.
- Another advantage that owners highlight is accuracy. This indicator directly affects shooting accuracy. Here it is important not only to hit the target, but also not to hit, for example, the enemy’s head in case of self-defense. Often the victim becomes the perpetrator.

Barrel design
Groza-01 was not produced with a huge number of barrel options, as was done with all the other pistols of this complex. A reliable V4 is immediately installed here, which has amazing characteristics.
First of all, you need to know that there are no barriers in the barrel bore that are installed to limit the use of live ammunition. To do this, engineers simply shifted the axes of the chamber and bore, which is a more practical solution.
But even despite the absence of obstacles inside the channel, it cannot be called smooth, since along its entire length there are valleys or, as they are commonly called, rifling. Of course, the Groza-01 barrel is not rifled, so it would never have passed licensing, so these are the most ordinary fillers, which are made here to weaken the barrel itself. It is worth noting that thanks to them the accuracy of fire increases.
Comparison with MP-78-9TM
This pistol can be associated with another Russian product of the same class and similar in size - MP-78-9TM. But I would immediately like to say that such a comparison is not entirely correct, because the difference in age for the traumatic weapon in these two specimens is very large. But we will allow this for ourselves, because both weapons are Russian-made.
First, it's worth mentioning the overall quality, where Groza-01 is the absolute winner. Disregarding all aspects of the properties and reliability of the design, I would like to say that the 01 is better than its opponent simply in terms of the material from which it is made. Although, if we associate it with the MP-78-9TM, produced on the basis of the combat PSM, then these two pistols can still compete in the “quality” column.
Next, it is worth saying that the Groza-01 barrel is ahead of its own rival in all respects. Firstly, it has a more advanced design of the barrel itself, and secondly, its strength and reliability are simply better, since it is made of higher quality material. At a minimum, the Groza-01 barrel does not need to install a reinforcing sleeve to increase strength. As for the dimensions, the MP-78-9TM wins here, but only due to the very narrow and awkward handle.
In terms of power, Groza-01, which is comfortable to carry in a holster, wins again, leaving no chance for its own opponent. Naturally, you can try to shoot the MP-78-9TM with strong cartridges, but after a few shots its barrel will simply fall apart. Naturally, 01 can also be associated with the trauma of foreign manufacturers, and there it will win in almost all indicators, but it’s easier to write a separate, huge article about this.
From all this we can draw a small conclusion that Groza-01 is the best Russian-made traumatic pistol in its class. But we should not forget that it is based on the Ukrainian Fort-9R.
Where does thunderstorm come from?
Everyone understands that we are talking about a traumatic pistol, and not about a natural phenomenon, however, the history of the development and creation of the “Thunderstorm” model is quite rich and may be of interest to some fans.
Since 1999, the Vinnitsa KNPO plant in Ukraine has been producing the Fort-12R traumatic pistol. This weapon has earned popularity in the Ukrainian and Russian markets, primarily due to its reliability and durability. Average resource – 50,000 shots. Later, the assembly of the Fort pistol was moved to Russia, but since 2014, Ukraine has ceased cooperation on this issue, and production has suspended.
Article on the topic: Cummins ISF 2.8 engine reviews from owners
The Moscow company Technoarms decided to continue producing models based on Fort pistols. This model was called “Thunderstorm”.
Let us immediately note that all the debate regarding the comparison of “Fort” and “Thunderstorm” is meaningless, since these are two absolutely identical models.
Pistol manufacturing technology
Pistols of the “Groza” type are, to a certain extent, a copy of various types of weapons for combat and service use.
Some elements of the presented trauma were borrowed from their combat counterparts. Those components of the pistol that are of decisive importance for this type of weapon (traumatic) have undergone changes.
These include the barrel of a pistol. It was adapted to fire rubber bullets.
The pistol frame can be made of either steel or polymer materials. The choice of this or that material does not in any way affect the characteristics of the weapon
When choosing a pistol, pay attention to the material of its individual parts.
Read a useful article about whether you need a permit for a traumatic pistol in the Russian Federation.
And from this article you will learn how to choose a traumatic pistol for self-defense.
The use of polymer materials in the manufacture of small arms has a number of advantages. Among them: light weight and ease of wearing. Among other things, polymers give the frame more elastic qualities. Such a frame, no matter how much force is applied to it, will not be subject to deformation and will remain in its original position.
Look and feel
The “Groza” R-02S revolver, reviews of which were left on the resource, turned out to be very, very convenient for the buyer to use
What is the first thing people who are experienced in this topic pay attention to? Of course, on the quality of workmanship, as well as on the quality of finishing of the weapon. Honestly speaking, when handling the “Groza” you don’t get any feeling that it’s not a real pistol
For example, if you purchase not just a signal, but even a traumatic analogue of the PM, you feel it from all sides, so to speak, you can quickly feel that this is a model not intended for firearms. When handling models from the “Groza” series series, such sensations do not arise. Even a small sensation is not observed.
general information
The automatic system of this pistol is based on a mechanism for working with the introduction of recoil during a free shutter. A special spring, which the engineers placed under the barrel, holds the bolt-casing in the last frontal position. The frame of the gun itself is made entirely of ordinary plastic. Other parts that bear the main load during shooting are made of high-quality steel, which is used in the production of the gun. To move the shutter-casing, a special iron base was placed in the frame.
The manufacturer firmly attached the barrel structure to the gun frame. The trigger mechanism came out completely standard for a traumatic weapon. The Groza-05 pistol received a double-action mechanism with an open-position trigger type. The hammer is cocked using the safety type.
For the safety of the shooter while carrying the gun, a safety lever is used here. To activate it, you need to activate the lever, which is located on the left rear side of the bolt housing. The safety is turned off painfully simply by a comfortable movement of a huge finger, so this can be done while removing the weapon from a holster or pocket in the event of an attack.
The design of the sight is also very traditional for traumatic weapons. At its base there is a front sight and rear sight, which are fixed in special grooves in the “dovetail” position. For the convenience of users, it is possible to make lateral corrections by moving the front and rear sights. The magazine is latched using an ordinary front sight, which is placed on the base of the trigger guard on the left side of the frame. The magazine holds 15 rounds of ammunition, arranged in 2 rows. During the shooting process, all cartridges are rearranged into one row.

general information
The Groza-01 traumatic pistol is very fascinating, especially its small thickness catches the eye. Although the handle is 24 mm thick, this makes the use of the pistol very comfortable. It lies comfortably in the hand and the shooter does not care about the recoil from shots. In addition, if such a thickness of the handle confuses someone, then you can change the lining to thinner ones.
Like all its “brothers” in the complex, 01 has a Ukrainian analogue, on the basis of which it was developed. In this case, Fort-9R acted as a base. Despite this, there are significant differences in the design of Groza-01. Firstly, it does not have an analogue made of plastic, and secondly, it does not have a bolt stop.
Specifically, the lack of a shutter stop caused a lot of dissatisfaction on the part of future buyers. But if you look in more detail, then in a traumatic pistol, which is used only for self-defense, this is not the most important component. The most important thing is that the weapon works with the greatest efficiency and without any failures. But it is necessary to keep in mind that this depends not only on the design of the pistol, but also on the cartridges used in the magazine.

Gas canister
Gas weapons (spray) are the first thing that comes to mind when mentioning weapons without a license. The cans are:
- gas;
- pepper;
- nerve-paralytic action.
Spray cans are especially popular among women because they weigh little, take up little space, and are easy to use. When purchasing this type of weapon, confirmation is required that the buyer is over 18 years of age.
The spray cans produced today contain pepper, its synthetic analogues, and tear substances.
Advantages of the can:
- used on the principle of liquid spraying;
- is inexpensive;
- easy to use, even mentally: not everyone can shoot a pistol, but spraying liquid is much easier;
- compact;
- Its small size and weight allow you to always carry it with you.
Flaws:
- It’s not a very frightening weapon; it won’t scare off an aggressor; the psychological effect is minimal. The attacker can speed up the movement and have time to prevent the victim from using the spray can (for this reason it must be used immediately).
- Even with watery eyes, the attacker can continue to attack.
- Do not use in a closed room (elevator, corridor, stairs), otherwise you may get hurt.
- You need to aim as accurately as possible and take into account the direction of the wind, otherwise the spray cloud may get into your eyes.

So nothing changes. For real self-defense in the city - legs and a gas cylinder. For real self-defense in places far from civilization - a shotgun (and thoughtful indications for what purpose you transported this shotgun in the car) For training at a shooting range - a shooting range pistol for rent. For those rare and unlikely cases when there may be a real danger to life in the city.
Well, ok, rubber shot. From the cheap ones - Makarych of any modification (even MP-80-13 chuzhtam, in short the same thing), Jorge the first From the more expensive - Thunderstorm EVO of various numbers (021, 041, 031, 051), T-12 AKBS, T-12FM- 1 (T-12 only with pre-reform cartridges) R226-TK Among the very expensive ones (and with an extremely unfavorable price/quality ratio) - PM-T, Groza v4, T12 Slovak, Jorge - S.
All types of ammunition (rubber, noise or gas) can be used for shooting.
Automation functions only when using cartridges with rubber bullets.
Groza 021 has a number of features:
The handle has a polymer shell. The Thunderstorm pistol has a double-action trigger: the shot can be fired from a pre-erected trigger or self-cocking.

The crime rate these days forces every citizen to think about their own safety and the safety of their property.
But it is not always possible to call for help or call the police, then you have to rely on your own strength.
Many types of weapons require a permit. Let's look at what weapons you can buy without self-defense and a license.
What is a weapon?
The Groza-051 traumatic pistol is the result of a modification of the Fort-18R model, adapted to the provisions of the legislation of the Russian Federation on weapons for self-defense. Anyone wishing to purchase this “injury” must have a special license issued by the Department of Licensing and Permitting of the Internal Affairs Directorate. Those who have already purchased this traumatic pistol are allowed to carry and transport it only if they have a passport or other identification document. The Groza-051 pistol is certified as a firearm of limited destruction (LDW).
Getting permission
To begin with, it must be said that according to the law of Russia, or more precisely in Art.
Criminal Code No. 222 states that there is no criminal liability for improper compliance with the rules for purchasing, storing and carrying trauma equipment. Failure to comply with this law is punishable by administrative punishment (fine, rarely arrest).
To obtain a license you will need:
- collect and present all required documentation to the OLRR (licensing and permitting department) at your place of residence;
- undergo a medical examination;
- pay the state fee;
- come to an appointment with the local police officer and get a signature for the permit;
- take training courses on the use of weapons.
A medical report implies an examination by a therapist, narcologist, psychiatrist, or ophthalmologist. A license to purchase trauma medications will not be given to people who are registered with a psychiatrist or narcologist.
To obtain a permit, you must collect and present the following documentation to the OLRR:
- copy of civil passport;
- a statement in a special form indicating the type of weapon;
- 2 photos 3x4;
- certificate in form 046-1;
- referral to the local police officer;
- receipt for payment of state duty;
- referral to training courses.
To obtain a certificate of completion of training courses, you need to contact the training center with a referral.
It must be said that not every person can obtain a license to purchase trauma equipment. The following categories of citizens may be denied:
- people who have a criminal record;
- with serious psychological disorders or poor vision;
- minors;
- citizens who have been brought to administrative responsibility more than twice.
The purchase of trauma equipment must be approached with full responsibility:
You need to pay attention to where you bought the gun. A gun store or online resource must have a license to sell this type of product; there is no need to purchase pistols at a greatly reduced cost. Most often, a significant difference in price indicates a fake; this can be fraught with unpleasant consequences, especially for the health of the owner of the weapon; We must not forget that when buying a weapon on the Internet, the pistol must be sent only by the special communications service of the Russian Federation and nothing else; Also remember that no one can sell handguns or ammunition without a permit.

Weapons have always been a source of fascination, and when purchasing this product for yourself as entertainment, you must not forget that this is, first and foremost, a pistol, and it can be dangerous. When buying a traumatic weapon for specific purposes, you also need to remember all the operating rules.

Weapon device
The Groza-051 traumatic pistol is equipped with an automatic mechanism that uses recoil when the bolt is blown. The return spring is located under the barrel. With its help, the bolt casing is held in the most forward position. The plastic pistol frame is equipped with a steel base, in which gunsmiths provide special guides necessary for moving the bolt casing. The fastening of the barrel to the pistol frame is made quite rigidly.
The Thunderstorm-051 pistol is equipped with a trigger mechanism, standard for most “traumas,” designed for double action. The hammer is cocked using the safety type. There are two ways to fire a shot: using self-cocking or pre-cocking the hammer.

The assembly of thunderstorm pistols is carried out in stages, as well as disassembly. Starting with disassembly, the following steps are distinguished:
- Removing the cartridge magazine, which is located under the handle.
- On the right side of the pistol, you need to press the slide stop axis using a magazine or rubbing and remove it.
- The bolt carrier must be moved to the rear position and the rear edge raised - this will allow it to be removed.
- Next, you need to stick out the guide axle with the spring on it and separate them.
Ready! This way you will not completely disassemble the pistol. To put it back together, you need to follow the steps in reverse order.
Groza-051 with EVO barrel
Like any other things in our world, this pistol has been upgraded by the developer over time, which should have made it better. So, I started developing and then creating the newest model of this weapon - Groza-051 with an EVO barrel.
Outside, no consumer can find any configurations. The developers have one hundred percent preserved the appearance of the old version. The only thing that can be found is that this is a specifically improved version of the trauma weapon, an index indicated on the weapon itself. Thunderstorm-051 is indicated here.
The main difference, as you might have already guessed, lies specifically in the design of the barrel. For its production, a new, higher-quality design is used, which made it possible to improve the technical properties of the weapon and its quality.
A new development in barrel production is called EVO. In its essence, this method of barrel production is a continuation of the development of v4 or v4.1 type barrels. The main advantage here is the barrier, which is installed in any traumatic weapon to exclude the possibility of using iron or live ammunition. Here it is a sleeve of misaligned drilling. They install it directly in front of the chamber, which reduces the load on it and significantly increases its service life. Such development is currently a feature of all modern traumatic weapons.
As the Groza-051 traumatic pistol demonstrated EVO technology, it immediately became very popular. The fact is that thanks to such a barrel, the number of various breakdowns is reduced, and the accuracy of fire is also improved. In general, such a trunk has the following advantages:
- Excellent accuracy when firing any type of cartridge;
- Absence of any significant breaks from the pile;
- There is no need to change the mainspring for certain types of cartridges;
- The recoil of the bolt and the feeding of the cartridge proceed smoothly with all types of cartridges of any power.
As a result, there is a significant improvement in the reliability of the gun. When using cartridges with the highest level of released energy, the Groza-051 pistol will not be inferior to any traumatic weapon. If you shoot cartridges with low energy release, then such a weapon will be even better than many types of trauma weapons. In general, the EVO barrel has become even better in its features than the v4.1 barrel.
Any model has a completely polished chamber with good calibration. The gun magazine is adapted only for 9 mm RA cartridges of any type. Due to the design features that the engineers introduced here, any possibility of the cartridge sticking into the upper part of the chamber is excluded.
After the first few batches, the manufacturer quickly responded to all user reviews with shortcomings and corrected them, offering the Russian market of self-defense weapons a good option. This pistol can, as mentioned above, work with any 9 mm PA cartridges. The features also include that the EVO barrel significantly increases the energy released by weak cartridges.

Self-defense weapon: pistol Groza-04 / Groza-041
Pistol Groza-04 caliber 9mm R.A. currently certified as a limited-kill firearm
The Groza-04 pistol, which has a plastic frame, completely replicates the design and construction of the Ukrainian Fort-17T pistol. The automatic operation of the pistol works according to the scheme of using recoil with a free shutter. The bolt-casing is held in the extreme forward position by a return spring located under the barrel. The pistol frame is made of high-strength plastic. The frame of the Groza-04 pistol contains a steel frame with guides along which the bolt-casing moves. Apart from the plastic frame, all other parts of the Groza-04 pistol are made of weapons-grade steel. The barrel is rigidly fixed to the frame. The trigger mechanism is double action, hammer type, with an open arrangement and safety cocking of the hammer. Safety in handling is ensured by a safety lever, the lever of which is located on the left side of the rear part of the pistol's bolt-casing. The safety switch is turned off by moving the lever to the lower position, that is, by a natural downward movement of the thumb. Sighting devices consist of a front sight and rear sight, fixed in dovetail-type grooves, with the possibility of making lateral corrections by moving them. The magazine latch is located at the base of the trigger guard, on the left side of the frame. The magazine has a double-row staggered arrangement of cartridges with their rearrangement into one row at the exit. Magazine capacity - 15 rounds.
Currently, the company Tekhnoarms CJSC is producing a new model of self-defense weapon - this is the Groza-041 pistol with an EVO barrel. The new pistol differs externally only in the index in the name; the model designation Groza-041 is indicated on the bolt-casing. The main difference between the Groza-041 pistols and the EVO barrel is the new barrel manufacturing technology and the quality of its processing. The barrels of modern Groza pistols are manufactured using the new EVO technology and are a further development of the v4 / v4.1 barrel type. As a barrier that prevents the firing of a metal bullet, a non-coaxial drilling bushing is used, installed immediately behind the chamber, which is a distinctive feature of all modern weapons produced by Tekhnoarms CJSC.
Since the appearance of self-defense weapons on the Russian market, EVO barrels have proven themselves to be excellent in terms of accuracy and reliability. The EVO barrel has a number of advantages: stable accuracy characteristics regardless of the cartridge used; no separation from the pile; no need to replace the mainspring when replacing the cartridge used; stable bolt recoil and cartridge feed rates, independent of cartridge power, in other words, omnivorous. The result is increased reliability. The dependence of muzzle energy on the energy of the cartridge is not so strong; with good cartridges, Groza pistols shoot the same as all others; with weak cartridges, Groza pistols shoot better. Shooting results from the EVO barrel have improved in all respects compared to the v4.1 barrel.
The chamber is polished to a shine and strictly calibrated, and the magazines are adapted strictly to the thickness of the cartridge case of the 9mm RA traumatic action cartridge. The 0.4 mm difference in the distance between the jaws of the new and old magazine completely eliminated the possibility of the cartridge sticking into the upper part of the chamber. The manufacturer managed to take into account and quickly correct all the previous shortcomings of the first batches, now Groza pistols work reliably with any cartridges from the box. The accuracy and accuracy of the barrel is again close to the level of previous v4 barrels. Moreover, the EVO barrel significantly improves the performance of weak cartridges, especially those with soft balls.
Owner's impressions: “My shot is small, so far everything is fine. The barrel is V1, that is, the most “toothy”, so there is slight discomfort when cleaning. I shot 50 J, although there is a letter from Technoarms about the possibility of using any. I chose it based on how it fit in my hand. Subjectively, Groza-04 is more comfortable than Groza-02, good balance, recoil does not interfere much. The accuracy and “penetrating ability” at the recommended distances are excellent, apparently they really shoot, and not in words.”
finished shooting... :-((((
Hi all! a little sadness befell me a couple of days ago - the injury lay there and lay there - didn’t touch anyone! We decided to go for a little fun and give it a weapon, but what a weapon it is - shoot! everything that happened can be seen from the pictures below! okay, at least it didn’t catch your eye... the entry is, in principle, not about the breakdown itself, but a WARNING to those who want to buy themselves a traumatic pistol!
