For example, IzhMech guns for clay sports were sold as Baikal, but TsKIB sporting guns came as Vostok, at least on some markets.
But back in the day both Baikal and Vostok were umbrella brands for a variety of makers, although the division between them is obscure to me at this stage. Today the Baikal brand is firmly associated with IzhMech, and following the transition to the Capitalist economy in 1990s the company secured the legal rights for it. I don’t know what person or organization suggested the names, but the Baikal logo was drawn by noone else but IzhMech’s Leonard Vassev. The model found in Survarium has had both its barrels. Part of a series of similarly designed shotguns, it was a common civilian weapon before the disaster. Produced between 19, the TOZ-66 is a 'side by side' style double-barrel shotgun intended for amateur hunting. Someone came up with “Vostok” for sporting arms and “Baikal” for hunting guns. The Tulsky Oruzheyny Zavod model 66 (Tula Arms Plant, model 66) is a break-action shotgun that appears in Survarium. This, of course, wouldn’t do in the competitive bourgeois economy.
In 1930s, Izhevsk hunting guns were marked as made by “People’s Commissariat of Defense Works #180”.
