Manufactured in Radom, Poland by Pioneer Arms, this PPS43-C retains the distinctive PPS-43 layout while operating in semi-automatic, closed-bolt, straight blowback form. The perforated steel barrel shroud has large cooling holes and an integral front sling eye, complementing the included sling.
The receiver is stamped and spot-welded steel with a hinged top cover, paired with a right-side charging handle and ejection port. A folding metal stock is present and fixed in the folded position from the factory, yielding an overall length of approximately 24.2 in.
Sighting is straightforward with a hooded fixed front post and a flip rear sight. Black checkered grip panels provide a secure hold, and the steel handguard/shroud matches the rest of the all-steel construction.
The pistol uses PPS-43 pattern detachable box magazines and is shipped with four 35-round steel magazines. It carries an I.O. Inc., Monroe, NC import mark and small proof/inspection stamps on the stock-latch plate.
