The AMP-69 (Hungarian: Automata Módosított Puskagránátos [Gépkarabély] 1969; Automatic Modified Grenade Launcher [assault rifle] 1969) is a selective-fire gas-operated 7.62×39mm assault rifle that was manufactured by Fegyver- és Gépgyár.
While the AMP-69 was modelled after the Kalashnikov rifle, it was specially created to use blank cartridges to launch rifle grenades.
The grenade types were armour piercing (PGK-69), anti-personnel/fragmentation (PGR-69), or tear gas.
