Actually, the Tiger-length barrel comes from a paratroops/spetznaz
equipement request. They issue the Druganov at a rate of something like
one to platton (if it has full TE) or company as support weapon, so a short
barrel was made for airborne use.
Actually, I'm thinking that the barrel might be incompatable becuase of
some stupid military restriction.
