Hungarian Blast Machine: AMD-65 at the Range
"Rifles on the Danube" Kickstarter is live!
www.kickstarter.com/projects/...
Today I took my AMD-65 out to the range. I've shot regular AKMs with AMD muzzle brakes, but never had the chance to try the AMD-65 in its original proper configuration. And you know what? It's actually not bad, at least in short helpings. The brake is really concussive for people around the gun, but it's not bad at all for the shooter. The grip would get tiring after a while, but for just a bit of shooting it's not bad at all.
Thanks to Brandon Herrera / The AK Guy Inc for building this rifle for me!

As a Hungarian, seeing Ian firing a hungarian gun , in a uniform made also by my country makes me extremely happy! Thank you so much!!!
Hungarians were using MLOK handguards and obnoxious muzzle devices way before it was cool. The original AK hipsters.
Well, that's a flamethrower.
The entire squad of Hungarian troops must have had elevenitis instead of tinnitus.

Get in touch with AMD65tech as he makes a cheek riser for the rear stock that is solid and it makes it look like it belongs on the AMD. It doesn't mess with the aesthetic of the AMD65. Great video.
AMD.... can you overclock it?
Back in the 80s, my father, as a Bulgarian army serviceman, took part in a convention, held in Hungary of the Warsaw Pact military small arms producers. There were competitive shootings conducted for all the primary assault rifles of the Europe's Eastern block. The best came up the Soviet AKM, followed by the German AKM. They all complained about the Bulgarian milled receiver AK, though my dad achieved with it the highest score on the range😊 And he told me about the concussion the AMD muzzle brake caused. And it also put the resting pillow on fire while they were shooting it prone.
Of course Jordan had to fire that last round. That's what friends are for!
A shooting video...
Served me and my unit well in the jungles of Tselinoyarsk back in '64.
Technically not everybody got this within the army. I served in 2001-2002 and our base had AK-63D. You should try to get one, Ian. They are fun. It was a technical brigade. (earthmoving machines basically) You look neat in that uniform, by the way :) Cheers from Hungary
My favorite observation was that they shortened the barrel and then gave it a long obnoxious brake, bringing it back almost to the original barrel length. Definitely one of the AK’s of all time.
Nice hat Jordan, "Gotta Try Them All" eh?
I got my AMD-65 in about 2010, I don’t think it’s ever failed to fire. One time though I forgot I wasn’t wearing ear pro and took a shot. Never again.
that was a great video. and we finally were able to see someone of the crew. Thank you Ian for all the countless hours of entertainment, thank you Josh for the camerawork and commentary and thank you AMD 65 for being... present
I have some of your books, and they are truly fantastic. I'm proud to own them.
