Kbkg wz. 1960


The Karabinek-granatnik wzór 1960, also designated PMK-DGN-60 or PMK-60, is a Polish-made version of the AK-47 assault rifle that can fire rifle grenades.

Description

The LON-I grenade launcher is screwed onto the forward end of the rifle barrel and locked into place by means of a spring-loaded plunger mounted in the front sight base of a modified AK-47 rifle. The sight for the launcher is mounted on the rear sight base. A valve is fitted to the right side of the gas block, allowing the gas to be shut off when the grenades are fired.
When using the rifle to launch grenades, a special rubber recoil pad is used and a special 10-round magazine is inserted. This magazine has a filler block that prevents it from being used with "normal" cartridges. There is also a regular version of this rifle as well that was not designed to shoot grenades.
