Izhevsk Mechanical Plant (IMEZ) Rifles for Sale

Founded: 1942

HQ: Soviet Union

Izhevsk Mechanical Plant (IMEZ) in Russia entered rifle production in 1942 during World War II, evolving from mass-produced service rifles to Baikal-branded hunting rifles that have remained a steady, if secondary, part of its catalog. In rifles, IMEZ is distinguished by simple, rugged Baikal designs for affordable hunting, focused on break-action single-shots and budget double rifles plus a straightforward semi-automatic rimfire, favored for durability over refinement and widely exported under alternate model designations.
