A high-quality and reliable shovel. Indispensable for military personnel, tourists, hunters, fishermen, and motorists, this tool has all the advantages characteristic of Soviet-made army equipment. The infantry shovel is lightweight, compact, easy to use, and very durable. The MPL-50 has many uses.
Its primary purpose is for digging under enemy fire. In addition, it is known as a powerful weapon in hand-to-hand combat, both for striking and throwing. In addition to these purely military functions, it can be used as a regular “civilian” shovel in the garden, in the vegetable garden, and generally anywhere where a shovel may be needed — for example, when digging a car out of the mud. Among the non-standard options, the shovel can be used as an axe, machete, oar, splint for a broken limb, and even a frying pan.
