  • The Kalashnikov group, which produces the AK-47 assault rifle, is planning to target hipsters and young people with a gadget-packed shotgun, its director said on Tuesday. Kalashnikov's director Dmitry Tarasov said the group had developed a semi-automatic 12-gauge shotgun dubbed the MP-155 Ultima that has a built-in computer and can teach its users how to shoot. "It's the first gadget weapon. The task is to attract that part of the audience who was born with gadgets and cannot imagine themselves without them," Tarasov said in an interview with the RBK business daily. "Classic hunting today is becoming more rare, even outlandish. Therefore, I would like to involve... hipsters, Generation Z," he said, referring to those born from the mid-1990s onwards. "I really want people to own weapons responsibly and at the same time get a kick out of it." The estimated price of its new high-tech shotgun, which was first presented at a military expo outside Moscow last summer, is 100,000 rubles ($1,348). It can be adapted with gadgets including a compass and a video camera, Tarasov said. The Kalashnikov group is Russia's largest weapons producer and is part of the state-owned defence conglomerate Rostec. The group says it manufactures some 95 percent of "all Russian small arms". Mass shootings in Russia are relatively rare. In the last high-profile case, a teenage gunman in October 2018 killed 20 at his college in Moscow-annexed Crimea. Last month a young army recruit was sentenced to over 24 years in prison for shooting dead eight servicemen, in a trial that spotlighted hazing in the army. emg/as/jxb
