Overview[]

The Pi-52 is a semi-automatic pistol chambered for the 7.62×25 mm cartridge. It features a unique operation where the slide and barrel are locked together by two lugs on top of the barrel mating with grooves on the inside of the slide.
It can only load from 8-round magazines, and can attain a fire rate of up to 500 rounds per minute[CfgWp 6][Formula 1] with a muzzle velocity of 480 m/s.[CfgWp 7] The Pi-52 cannot be customised with optical sights, suppressors or flashlights/laser sights.
Ironsights[]

The Pi-52's ironsights cannot be manually zeroed. They are always set to a fixed zeroing of 50 metres.[CfgWp 8]

Notes[]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 This muzzle velocity value only applies to the magazine itself. Because the weapon classname's initSpeed value is not defined as a coefficient, its initSpeed value (480 m/s) always takes precedence over the magazine's initSpeed.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 Damage will be reduced if the projectile's velocity drops below this value.
- ↑ The caliber token for 7.62 mm TT Training ammunition is set to a value of zero. It is not possible for its bullets to penetrate through materials of any kind.

- ↑ SunCZu 2024, I guess it was because the unofficial ones are a bit more gamer friendly. Some of those names can get a bit confusing in regards to their direct translation and actual purpose. Also, some of them, like the pistols cannot be named CZ because of licenses., Discord [Social Media], viewed 8 July 2025, <https://discord.com/channels/570999437728546852/572098201650200578/1241444259882598410>.
