This video explores the fascinating Krása project, Czechoslovakia's attempt at an ultra-compact PDW in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Designed by Jiri Čermák, the project aimed to create a short, lightweight personal weapon for special forces and vehicle crews. Initially chambered in 7.62x39mm, the sa81 prototype evolved to a 5.45x39mm variant, the sa83. The video details its unique reverse-feeding mechanism, radical departure from the vz58, and eventual cancellation in favor of the Lada program. A brief revival as project HROM is also discussed. The presenter expresses interest in seeing the reverse-feeding concept realized with modern cartridges.
