NPO AEG, known from the production of replicas of modern Russian weapons, has added a new replica to its offer. It is a SR-2 Veresk (Heather) electrically powered submachine gun (AEG) replica.

The replica is currently available on pre-order. Promotional price: 525 Euro. Orders will be finalized at the end of September.
