My guess is that majority of Russian Military will still be using Cold War weapons,no matter how good the recent designs are. They are not alone. Many other services around the world are doing the same. Old Tokarev pistol and Bohemian CZ-75 are still extremely popular in many countries, for example. Both, with services and private users.

Looks very similar or identical to what is known as their Arsenal Strike 1 design (made in Italy). And apparently it is a piece of garbage. At the opposite the Turk Canik is a cheap, accurate and rugged and reliable striker fired weapon, a good contender against Glock.

Ugh! You are not going to make a Glock competitor in simplicity with a Browning action with a swinging link. The glock barrel with its square action link is much cheaper to drill. http://blog.gruppa-l.com/lebedev-pl-14/
