The Papasha, also known as the PPSh-41, is the latest submachine gun introduced by VFC, marking the first gas blowback (GBB) version of the iconic Soviet SMG thats renowned for its high rate of fire, distinctive drum magazine, and historical significance on the Eastern Front during World War II. The mass-produced Burp Gun was partially inspired by the Finnish Suomi KP/-31 and evolved from the complex PPD series, achieving a remarkable 70% improvement in shot grouping compared to its predecessor.

The GBB features a realistic weight and is constructed with genuine wood and a stamped, riveted steel body, including its signature 3mm thick stamped steel compensator and drum magazine, which enhance the authentic experience when handling this SMG. Incorporating cutting-edge airsoft technology, VFC has integrated a cleverly designed Top Down Centre (TDC) hop-up system that applies vertical pressure to the BB, resulting in a straighter, longer, and more stable trajectory for each shot.
