The KK-Mpi-69 (Klein Kaliber Maschinenpistole 1969) was a .22 rimfire training model of the standard East German stamped AKM. It used a simple blowback replacement bolt assembly and proprietary front trunnion along with a standard AKM receiver and fire control group. There is no gas block, since a gas piston is not used, and the sights are calibrated for short range rimfire shooting only. The magazines are standard AKM magazine bodies holding 15-round .22 rimfire magazines. Approximately 50,000 of these were made between 1970 and 1975.

Many thanks to the IRCGN (Institut de Recherche Criminelle de la Gendarmerie Nationale) for allowing me access to film this unusual AK variant for you!

You've certainly seen quite a number of very creative and specialized firearms training bits and pieces over the years. Have you ever come across any equipment or cartridges designed to simulate particular malfunctions? That seems like an area with room for a lot of "interesting" ideas and devices.

Hi, I have a question about this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=547LpPUmPi0. Is this an official collaboration? Because I did not know that there are videos in Ukranian. The qulity is a bit messy - that is why I asked about it, this do not look like an offical translation.
