AK-205
The AK-205 is a carbine chambered in 5.45×39mm. The AK-205 is a modernized version of the AK-105, which in turn is a shortened carbine version of the AK-74M. The AK-205 was originally known as AK-105M before being renamed ''AK-205'' in 2018. The AK 200 series AK-205, AK-202 and AK-204 are very similar in design, the only differences being the chambering, barrel length and magazine type.
