Externally, the Kalashnikov origins betray the Grad design as the squared receiver is clearly identified, though now as part of a larger, rather cumbersome-looking, stock. The curved, detachable 30-count magazines are also identifiable as AK-style in their design complete with vertical ribbing. The Grad is chambered for the unique 6x49mm cartridge and charging of the weapon managed through an assembly fitted to the left side of the body near and above the pistol grip. The barrel can be capped with a sound suppressor for clandestine operations involving special warfare elements.
