Automatic rifles designed on the Kalashnikov operating system combine the advantages of this system with the 5.56×45 mm caliber.

Key Features:

• The Kalashnikov system ensures reliable operation in all climatic and terrain conditions, verified through rigorous testing in accordance with military standards.

• Optimally balanced weapon with low recoil allows for easy fire control.

• Cold-forged barrel with a chrome-lined bore ensures exceptional accuracy and extended service life.

• Mechanical and operational safety – in addition to the fire selector having a “safe” position, the design prevents the rifle from discharging before the bolt is fully locked.

• Fire selector with three positions: safe, automatic, and semi-automatic.

• Ambidextrous fire selector.

• Mechanical sights with tritium inserts provide aiming capability in low-light conditions.

• Flash suppressor reduces the shooter’s detectability, enhancing concealment in combat conditions.

• Two-piece handguards made from fiberglass-reinforced polymer with excellent thermal insulation provide a comfortable grip.

• Full-length Picatinny rail on the receiver cover.

• Picatinny rails on the handguards allow for mounting of auxiliary equipment.

• Polymer stock folds to the right side.

The M21 SBS and M21 ABS models differ only in barrel length: the SBS has a shorter barrel, while the ABS has a longer barrel.
