The MP-443 , also known as the PYa (Pistolet Yarygina, or 'Yarygin's Pistol') or the ''Grach'' ('Rook', Russian: Грач), is the official Russian military designation for of a 9x19mm calibre semi -automatic pistol type handgun produced by Izhevsk Mechanical Plant (Now now part of Kalashnikov Concern), .<ref name = "grach wiki">[[wikipedia:MP-443 is sometimes referred to by it's designer's name as Yarygin Pistol, but it is also known as Grach (Rook) from |Wikipedia entry on the military trials. Design finished around 2000, it was adopted as the standard service sidearm for Russia's military and law enforcement. The weapon was produced in small batches prior to 2011 and supplied to selected units, the financial situation at the time and the large amount of stockpiled Makarov pistols dissuaded the mass production of Grach. Eventually in 2011, Grach entered mass production and is speculated to completely replace Makarov MP-443 pistol by 2019.]]</ref>
Grach classifies as a double-action, short recoil operated pistol, chambered for 9x19mm calibre cartridges such as When the Russian 7N21 armor piercing ammo and 9mm Parabellum. Initially designed to feed from a double-column magazine Federation was formed out of 17 rounds in capacity, but 18 rounds magazines are also manufactured as of 2004.

Tactical accessories such as tactical light The MP-443 is a double-action, short-recoil, semi-automatic pistol that functions very similarly to most modern handguns. It utilizes a simplified Colt–Browning tilting-barrel lock design, a design which is also found in handgun offerings from SIG Sauer and Glock. The way this locking system manifests in the Grach is by having the breech end of the barrel be rectangular in shape, rather than rounded, and laser sights made to fit into matching locking grooves within the slide near the ejection port. The slide stop lever can be fitted mounted on either side of the weapon to accommodate both left- and right-handed users. Likewise, the pistol manual safety is ambidextrous, with safety catches on both sides of the weapon, where it is manipulated by the thumb. It is mounted on the frame, below the rear slide grooves, and directly behind the slide stop lever. The hammer is partially concealed at the assistance sides to prevent catching on clothes and equipment. The magazine release catch is located in the base of weaver railthe trigger guard on the left side, which Grach where it can mountbe manipulated with the thumb (right-handed users) or index or middle finger (left-handed users). The civilian market variant front sight is formed as a fixed part of Grach the slide and is non-adjustable. The back sight is designated as MPdrift adjustable for windage (dovetail type), but this requires a tool. Both feature white contrast elements to ease aiming in low-446 Vikinglight conditions.<ref name="wiki">[[wikipedia:MPThe standard magazine capacity is 17 rounds, fed from a double-443 Grach|Wikipedia entry on MPcolumn, two position feed magazine.

The Grach is chambered for the 9×19mm 7N21 cartridge, the Russian loading of the ubiquitous 9mm NATO pistol cartridge. The 7N21 features a semi-armour-piercing bullet with a tempered steel core. The weapon can also use standard 9×19mm Parabellum/9mm Luger/9×19mm NATO cartridges, including civilian loads such as hollowpoints for law enforcement (only full metal jacket bullets are permitted for use in military weapons). In 2003, testing was concluded, and the MP-443 was officially adopted as a standard sidearm for all branches of Russian military and law enforcement. Initial production and procurement of the Grach would be slow. By 2008, it had only been supplied in small numbers to select special forces units, presumably those in the North Caucasus. Production would be increased starting in 2011, with officers of the Western Military District receiving their new pistols in 2012. Large-scale deliveries of PYa pistols to the Russian Armed Forces would begin shortly afterwards. Today, the MP-443 shares a spot in Russian military service alongside other Soviet/Russian handguns such as the Makarov PM, GSh-18, and SPS. Owing to financial issues and the availability of the PM pistol, the Makarov remains the primary police service pistol in Russia. | design=In-game, Grach appears to be around 150-155cm of body in height, when using her weapon as a 's size for comparison scale model. Grach appears not only taller, but also overall more girly than her sister {{doll name|MP-446|HG|2}}, due to her pink hair and her short skirt. She can commonly be seen carrying gem stones gemstones with her, even to the battlefield, and she carves gem stones these gemstones into what appears to be a prism shape to resemble stars(or Saint Quartz for any FGO players).

| trivia =*The Russian nickname given to the MP-443, 'Grach' ('Rook'), is derived not from the chess piece, but rather from the name of a species of bird known as the rook (''Corvus frugilegus''). The rook is member of the crow family of birds, and is a common sight in much of western Russia.*Initially, Grach MP-443 was intended to be the February 2018 login reward Doll on the CN servers; however.

Grach was **MP-443's introduction to the game would be delayed until her eventual release as June 2018's login reward.*One of her voiced MP-443's voice lines (currently unused in-game, but included in the game files) has her saying ''"yukkuri shite ne!"'' (roughly translating as "take it easy!"), . This is possibly as a reference to her artist Yóu​kùlí (derived from the Japanese "yukkuri", using Mandarin pronunciation) and , as well as potentially being in reference to the catchphrase of the ''yukkuri'' critters from the ''Touhou'' fandomseries of fanworks.
