However, the AMD-63 still continued remained in military service to the present. The AMD-65 is used by 4 countries (including Hungary) as well as the Palestine Liberation Organization, and the Islamic terrorist organization, the Taliban.

The AMD-65 is mainly made out of only metal (mainly sheet metal) and plastic and not wood which is quite rare for a Soviet-influenced firearm during this time.

The AMD-65 uses 7.69x39mm cartridges.
