Many successful manufacturers of traumatic weapons have at least once tried to give the consumer the most compact weapon based on their successful models of traumatic weapons. As a rule, many of them turned out to be compact, they could be carried every day as secretly as possible, but there was no talk of high quality and effective shooting.
The Schmeisser gun complex was no exception. The manufacturer tried to create a compact weapon, calling it Schmeisser AE790G1. Of course, you can shoot from this pistol, you can even hit some targets, but in many characteristics it is inferior to almost all of its competitors.

Light alloys (ZAM) are widely used in the design of the Stalker-914s starting pistol. The trigger mechanism is hammer-operated, double-action (self-cocking). The design includes a manual safety located on the left side of the frame, above the cheek of the handle. The cartridges are fed from a detachable double-row box magazine; the magazine latch is located at the base of the trigger guard.
Disadvantages of the Schmeiser AE790G1 injury
When the first excitement around the new compact class traumatic pistol subsided, buyers began to take a closer look at this model of traumatic pistol. At first glance, the pistol did not inspire thoughts about its durable operation. It must be said that the designers, in pursuit of ease of use, decided not to pay due attention to the quality of the alloy and the quality of workmanship of parts. The PSSh790 pistol turned out to be of very low quality.
The material from which the weapon was made, including its parts that bear the load when firing, was made of light alloy, which was not a guarantee of durability. Poorly processed external and internal parts of the pistol also did not contribute to the reliability of the weapon.
The disadvantage of this model is also that it can only use low-power charges. This is an indispensable condition, unless the owner of the injury wants to quickly “lose” his trunk. Although in one batch there may be pistols that are more “resistant” to high-power charges, it’s still not worth the risk.
It would have been possible, of course, not to buy this traumatic weapon, but, firstly, at that time the choice of compact-class traumatic weapons was small, and secondly, the price of the “Schmeiser” was much more attractive than that of other manufacturers’ traumatic weapons.

What is the main advantage of the compact Schmeisser?
When you see this pistol for the first time, you immediately understand that it will not last long, especially if you use it constantly for recreational or sport shooting.
The PGSh developers decided not to bother with the quality of all weapon parts. Not only the external parts were poorly processed, but also the internal ones, which bear the heaviest load, which critically affects Schmeiser’s working life. Perhaps the poor quality is the result of the company's rush to introduce a product to the compact gun market during its infancy in order to capture maximum profits. Well, they most likely succeeded in fulfilling the economic plan.
It is unfair to describe a weapon to talk only about its negative aspects, when it really has something worthwhile. The ease of carrying and operating the weapon is at a high level, which is inherent in many types of compact trauma equipment.
The use of light alloy metals in the design made it possible to reduce the weight of the gun to 600 grams. Of course, with such a weight indicator it is difficult to call the PGSh small; most likely, it is somewhere between the “small” and “medium” classes.
The Schmeiser fits very comfortably in the palm of any size, all controls are located so that the shooter does not have to use much effort to do anything. The pistol can be conveniently carried in a trouser pocket or in the inside pocket of a jacket. Thanks to its low weight, you can even forget that you have a traumatic pistol in your pocket.
In addition, the weight of 600 grams copes well with recoil during shooting. The shooter practically does not feel it, so he does not experience any discomfort during shooting. Although, this is also due to the fact that only weak cartridges can be used here; the design of the PGSh simply will not withstand medium or powerful ones.

GLOCK 17 has proven itself to be one of the best examples of small arms created for the armies of the world. The GLOCK 17 is also in service with the police and as a self-defense weapon. Not so long ago, the GLOCK 17 pistol was put into service as a self-defense weapon in the Russian Federation. It should be noted that the Zoraki 917 starting pistol, like the Austrian Glock 17 pistol, basically has many similar positive features such as: 1.

The Zoraki name has long established itself as a reliable and high-quality manufacturer. The Zoraki 917 model of signal and noise pistol presented to you is recommended for all lovers of high-quality weapons and the reliability of the Zoraki name.
The history of the creation of "Schmeisser"
This Ukrainian-German enterprise (founded in the city of Vishnyov, Kyiv region in 1994), produces models of pistols and revolvers for active self-defense. Using German weapon technology, it produced the compact class injury weapon in 2002. “Schmeiser AE790G1”, as conceived by the designers, was supposed to be light in weight, be of medium size - in general, be convenient both to carry and to use. This (and this is the only thing) is what the manufacturer managed to achieve.
A distant relative of this injury was the “ERMA EGP-790” pistol, on the basis of which a gas modification was created at UNSP - “Schmeiser PGSh790”, and later the “Schmeiser” traumatic pistol itself appeared.
At first, everything was going great and, as expected by manufacturers who wanted to make a good profit from the sale of small-sized trauma weapons (and they were still a rarity on the arms market at that time), the 790 Schmeiser was in great demand. Over time, buyers began to express dissatisfaction with the pistol, and those who had not yet purchased it began to wonder whether it was worth buying a “Schmeisser PSSh 790” at all.
