on the channel of the Kalashnikov concern.Under the video, the authors indicated that the combination of the two terms “machine gun” and “carbine” is, of course, a little incorrect, because “machine gun” is an automatic carbine. However, in this case, the second part of the term implies an improvement in the accuracy and firing range of the machine gun.

This type of weapon was developed by designBureau from Izhevsk and Kovrov. And the sample shown in the video was created by Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov himself. This assault rifle has a longer barrel than a conventional assault rifle, which provides a more long and heaped battle. In general, this weapon is similar to the AK-47, but with some features. For example, the bolt frame of the rifle does not have a gas piston.

The Kalashnikov assault rifle was tested, but did not go into the series.
