GP-34 underbarrel grenade launcher
The GP-34 grenade launcher (index GRAU-6G34) is a Russian 40-mm muzzle-loading under-barrel grenade launcher for Kalashnikov and Nikonov assault rifles , designed to destroy enemy personnel and unarmored vehicles with VOG-25 shots, it can also use light, smoke, and gas for firing shots. The grenade launcher was developed in 2000 and produced at Izhevsk Machine-Building Plant. The grenade launcher has been adopted for service and is supplied to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, and is also exported.
History and design
The GP-34 grenade launcher is a modernization of the GP-25 and GP-30 grenade launchers. The modernization work took place at the Izhmash Concern design bureau under the leadership of Nikolai Bezoborodov. After modernization, the grenade launcher was unified for installation on the AK-74M, the hundredth series of Kalashnikov assault rifles, AK-12, AN-94 (Nikonova) AEK-971.
The design and principle of operation of the GP-34 is similar to the GP-25 and GP-30 grenade launchers. The task of modernizing the grenade launcher was to unify it for installation on modern Russian-made assault rifles; the trigger was redesigned to eliminate the possibility of misfires. The shot extractor has become more convenient, and the shot loading mechanism has become safer. For the first time, a sight was used that adjusted for derivation (the deviation of the shot in the direction of rotation of the shot during flight), which is useful when shooting overhead or at long distances; the sight was placed on the right side. When setting the distance on the sight, correction for derivation occurs automatically. The grenade launcher is loaded with unitary (the propellant charge and the grenade are made in the same housing) shots from the muzzle of the barrel; after the shot, the shooter does not have to waste time extracting the cartridge case. The grenade launcher barrel has 12 rifling along which the grenade moves with ready-made hooks for these rifling. Having reached the day, the shot clings to the safety lock, which holds the shot in the barrel at negative angles. To fire a shot, the shooter presses the tight trigger, which cocks the mainspring, which breaks when the trigger is in the extreme position; after the break, the spring transfers energy to the trigger, which hits the firing pin, followed by a blow to the shot primer, after which the grenade flies out. When the hook is released, the safety lock is unlocked. The safety of the grenade launcher is ensured by a safety lever. To extract unfired or defective (misfired) shots, a convenient extractor is provided; when you press it, the pin presses on the bottom of the shot and pushes it out of the barrel. The first releases of the GP-32 were supplied with a collapsible cleaning rod, which was placed in the butt of the machine gun, which were also specially made for the use of the GP-34. Subsequent versions of the GP-34 were modified to use a full cleaning rod under the barrel. It is often mentioned in sources of information that the GP-34 has a safety lock that blocks the grenade from falling out of the barrel - the information is not correct, since this lock was already on the OKG-40 Iskra and the GP-25 Koster.

Description of the AK-103 MMG with a simulator of the GP-34 under-barrel grenade launcher (model)
Such a machine is purchased as a theatrical prop or for household purposes and as an exhibition sample.
The layout is based on the Kalashnikov AK-103 combat assault rifle. The hundredth series assault rifles were initially made for export, but in 1995, law enforcement agencies and the Russian army armed themselves with weapons such as the AK-105. The mock-up of the MMG AK-10, which comes with a simulator of the GP-34 under-barrel grenade launcher, has dimensions and appearance that match the combat prototype.
The machine was made for 5.45 mm caliber cartridges. The length of the rifled barrel of this machine gun is 415 mm. Here, a rotating bolt and removal of powder gases are used in the form of a firing mechanism. The rate of fire of the combat version of the machine gun was 600-650 rounds per minute. The sighting range reached 1000 m.
For aiming, a standard open sight was used here, consisting of a rear sight and a front sight. And the design also provided space for mounting optics. These aspects have been preserved in this layout as well.
Such an MMG in the form of a mock-up of the AK-103 with a simulator of the GP-34 under-barrel grenade launcher (Maket) in Moscow and parts of Russia is sold freely to buyers who are over 18 years old. This item comes with a certificate showing that this is a mock-up that is structurally similar to a military weapon. You can buy an MMG Kalashnikov AK-103 assault rifle with an installed simulator of a GP-34 under-barrel grenade launcher (the model is converted from a combat one) through the website “Hit the Top Ten.ru”. Here, consultants will always help customers with choosing the necessary weapons and accessories.
The model was made in Izhevsk at the IzhMash enterprise, that is, in the same place where the combat model of such a machine gun was made. Therefore, it is not surprising that there are authentic components and parts from military AKs.
The length of this model is 940 mm, and there is a folding stock. When folded, the length of the machine is 700 mm. Impact-resistant polyamide with glass filling was used for the butt and fore-end. The bolt and barrel were made from weapons-grade metal with corrosion protection. The machine has swivels, so the owner can easily attach a carrying belt here. The machine also comes with a pencil case that fits into the butt.
The price for an AK-103 with a simulator of an under-barrel grenade launcher in the form of a GP-34 mock-up (MMG Layout) is set taking into account the fact that the weapon has a grenade launcher.
At the same time, the mass of the AK 103 with an empty magazine is 3.6 kg plus the mass of the GP-34 is 1.4 kg. The grenade launcher is designed for 40 mm shells. The target firing range of a combat grenade launcher of this type is 400 m with a technical rate of fire of 20 rounds per minute. The speed of the grenade reaches 76.5 m/s.
Excerpt characterizing GP-34
- A! Ah!...” Natasha screamed, rolling her eyes in horror. - How can he say that? - Yes, as a person, everything is as it should be, and he began and began to persuade, and she should have occupied him with conversation until the roosters; and she became shy; – she just became shy and covered herself with her hands. He picked it up. It’s good that the girls came running... - Well, why scare them! - said Pelageya Danilovna. “Mother, you yourself were guessing...” said the daughter. - How do they tell fortunes in the barn? – asked Sonya. - Well, at least now, they’ll go to the barn and listen. What will you hear: hammering, knocking - bad, but pouring bread - this is good; otherwise it happens... - Mom, tell me what happened to you in the barn? Pelageya Danilovna smiled. “Oh, well, I forgot…” she said. - You won’t go, will you? - No, I'll go; Pepageya Danilovna, let me in, I’ll go,” said Sonya. - Well, if you're not afraid. - Luiza Ivanovna, may I? – asked Sonya. Whether they were playing ring, string or ruble, or talking, as now, Nikolai did not leave Sonya and looked at her with completely new eyes. It seemed to him that today, only for the first time, thanks to that corky mustache, he fully recognized her. Sonya really was cheerful, lively and beautiful that evening, like Nikolai had never seen her before. “So that’s what she is, and I’m a fool!” he thought, looking at her sparkling eyes and her happy, enthusiastic smile, making dimples on her cheeks from under her mustache, a smile that he had never seen before. “I’m not afraid of anything,” said Sonya. - Can I do it now? - She stood up. They told Sonya where the barn was, how she could stand silently and listen, and they gave her a fur coat. She threw it over her head and looked at Nikolai. “What a beauty this girl is!” he thought. “And what have I been thinking about so far!” Sonya went out into the corridor to go to the barn. Nikolai hurriedly went to the front porch, saying that he was hot. Indeed, the house was stuffy from the crowded people. It was the same motionless cold outside, the same month, only it was even lighter. The light was so strong and there were so many stars on the snow that I didn’t want to look at the sky, and the real stars were invisible. In the sky it was black and boring, on earth it was fun. “I’m a fool, a fool! What have you been waiting for so far? thought Nikolai and, running onto the porch, he walked around the corner of the house along the path that led to the back porch. He knew that Sonya would come here. Halfway along the road there were stacked fathoms of firewood, there was snow on them, and a shadow fell from them; through them and from their sides, intertwining, the shadows of old bare linden trees fell onto the snow and the path. The path led to the barn. The chopped wall of the barn and the roof, covered with snow, as if carved from some kind of precious stone, glittered in the monthly light. A tree cracked in the garden, and again everything was completely silent. The chest seemed to breathe not air, but some kind of eternally youthful strength and joy. Feet clattered on the steps from the maiden porch, there was a loud creaking sound on the last one, which was covered with snow, and the voice of an old girl said:
