AMD-63 Assault Rifle Made Hungarian

The AMD-63 assault rifle is a Hungarian version of the Soviet AKM, but has some minor modifications. It
was designed in the early 1960s. The AMD-63 was a standard Hungarian service rifle, before it was
replaced by AK-63. This weapon was exported to some countries. The AMD-63 is a gas operated, selective fire assault rifle, chambered for the Soviet 7.62 x 39 mm ammunition. It is worth mentioning that the AMD-63
assault rifle has inferior accuracy to most Western designs.

However it inherited unsurpassed reliability, ruggedness, simplicity of operation and maintenance of the AKM.
This weapon do not jams or misfires in worst conditions possible. Also it has reliable extraction even with dirty chamber and cases. This weapon can be field stripped in one minute without using any tools. Unfortunately the Hungarian AMD-63 has poor ergonomics and is badly balanced. This weapon has a sighting range o 1 000 m, however it's effective range is limited to 350 - 400 meters.
