FEG in Budapest.The AMD-65 and its front pistol grip.
1The Hungarian Kalashnikov
Hungary built milled AK-47s as the AK-55, then the AKM-63, with a distinctive front vertical grip and a metal lower handguard. The AMD-65 shortened the barrel, added a large muzzle brake and a folding wire stock, and became one of the most recognizable Kalashnikovs.
FEG also built the AMP-69 grenade launching rifle and the NGM in 5.56 NATO. The SA-85M was the semi-auto export rifle sold in the United States, and Hungarian AMD-65 and AMD-63 parts kits were popular with builders.
