A pistol designed by Sitanin Uusushi and his wife, Yuko Langrova, for Sitanin Zbrojovka (SiZi) on Democratic Imperium of Nepleslia. The pistol, still manufactured in limited numbers, comes in four models: the original Prototypical or “P” version (no longer produced), the P2 “Production”/M “Military”, the PD “Police” and the Y “Yamatai” model.

Model 79 PD “Police”

All steel construction, blued. Plastic grips. Spur hammer (P). Slide release above trigger, left side. Slide extends up around “gutter” sight to add more grip. Dual cams lock barrel in place (P); barrel unlinked during recoil then locked upon chambering. Frame envelopes slide rails. Barrel protrudes 2 mm from slide. No front sight. Equipment rail found on “Production” (P2) model. Traditional sights and combat knob hammer on the “Military” (M) and “Police” (PD).

Created for “Nepleslian citizenry;” the Model 79 is a relatively cheap weapon firing powerful yet commonly found cartridge. An extra slide, two magazines and barrel originally came in the 70 KS package to convert it to 9 mm; the package now costs 60 KS and works with the P2 and PD. A very accurate gun, competition shooters reported between 1 and 1.5 minute-of-angle groups at 100 meters using the “P” version“ out of the box. The P2 and M models are just as accurate, with the final “PD” model repeatedly scoring 1 MOA.

The least common version is the “PD” version, more commonly called the “Police.” The model features a decocker only instead of a safety/decocker. It has a serrated trigger blade and front grip, and uses traditional sights with a “figure 8” configuration.

In YE 33 a new Export (Y) model was created, for export to Yamatai and other places. The gun was modified by increasing the size of the front end to reduce perceived recoil and make the gun sturdier, as well as adding more traditional iron sights, and enlarging the hammer to deal with some heavier military primers. The (Y) model is imported by Origin Industries, but made by SiZi.
