Basic Information
Internally OTs-14 "Groza" is an exact copy of AKS-74U but in a bullpup configuration and chambered for 6.2mm SAW cartridge. The trigger-pistol grip unit could be removed and replaced with an alternative unit integral with 40 mm grenade launcher. In that configuration, a single trigger controls with a separate barrel selector both the 40 mm grenade launcher and the rifle itself. The safety/firing mode selector of AKS-74U pattern is retained, but there is an additional safety on the trigger. The barrel itself can be fitted with a specially designed quick-detachable silencer. The OTs-14's carrying handle has provisions for mounting long-range optical sights, red dot sights or night vision devices. As it was meant to replace the AKS-74U in the battalions of Spetsnaz MVD as a standard service firearm there are also variants chambered for 7.62x39mm. The idea behind this design was to have an easily modified basic version which would be used in different combat scenarios as a carbine, assault rifle with a foregrip, silenced assault rifle with detachable silencer and assault rifle with an integrated under-barrel grenade launcher.
