Pioneer Arms Hellpup Series of AK Pistols have been an affordable mainstay for US consumers for years. These imports from Radom, Poland are produced in some of the same buildings once used by the venerable Polish Military Circle 11 Plant. Using the Licensed Kalashnikov AK blueprints, Pioneer Arms Corp has designed our AK-style firearms to have the most authentic feel possible. The Hellpup series of AK pistols feature an 11.73" barrel with 14x1LH thread pitch, a forged front trunnion, a front sight gas block, an enhanced safety selector, and a traditional AK optics side rail.
