Gepard PDW
The Gepard PDW is an experimental weapon, based on the AKS-74U. The most interesting feature is that the Gepard can shoot no less than five different calibers without any swapping. With swapping out the bolt and barrel, the number of available calibers increases to fifteen.
Depending on the caliber, the weapon fires by blowback, delayed blowback, or gas operation; for most caliber changes, only a change in the recoil springs, bolt, and barrel is necessary. Only the use of the 9x19 Grom cartridge requires more modification due to the length of the 9x19 Grom. The wooden pieces of the AKS-74U have been replaced with plastic on the Gepard.
