The AM-17 is a Russian assault rifle and carbine which uses the 5.45x39mm cartridge, which was first unveiled in 2017, alongside the AMB-17 which is the integrally suppressed variant of the weapon. Both are considered weapons within the XNDUIW community, which is intended to be used as a close-quarters weapon, mainly for military and law enforcement purposes within the Russian Interior Ministry, and the Russian Military to replace the AK-74, with serial production of the carbine beginning around 2025.
Design[]
The AM-17, unlike prior firearms has two receivers on a hinge rather than one single receiver with a lid. The upper receiver is made from mainly polymer and steel reinforcements, while the lower receiver has the magazine housing which is made completely of polymer as well. It is a gas-operated rotating bolt weapon, which has three radial lugs similar to 9x39mm carbines, such as the VSS Vintorez as an example.
The weapon has an integrated Picatinny rail, along with a polymer side-folding and adjustable shoulder stock, along with the weapon being fully ambidextrous as well.
