Baikal, NOT Izhmash, is the one who produce the Makarov(both real steel and Co2 version), as well as converting surplus Tokarev's, and Pa Pa Sha's(yes you read me right(using Drozd internals): PPSH shooting (пневматичесРий ППШ) MP-562k - YouTube) into CO2 bb guns.

It should be noticed that this is not Izhmash's first effort into the realm of airsoft: One version of their famous Yunker series of CO2 rifles(which are essentially the CO2 version of their AK-74 series), fires 6mm airsoft BBs instead of the usual 4.5mm steel BB's:
