The Russian arms concern "Kalashnikov" will produce a batch of modernized AK-308 for foreign customers in October. We are talking about 2025 model assault rifles chambered for 7.62x51 NATO (.308 Win).
The concern's gunsmiths have proactively unified the design of the AK-308 and AK-12 circuit solutions. Specialists changed the design of the handguard, installed a folding, adjustable buttstock, as well as a receiver cover with a long Picatinny rail.

The AK-308 also received a modified diopter sight with an integrated folding diopter (comes with an increased hole diameter). It is designed for firing in twilight and at close range.
The concern emphasized that there remains a high demand for the 7.62 mm AK-308 abroad. "Kalashnikov" is already receiving new orders for 2026.
