| The development of a [[grenade launcher]] for the [[AKM]] [[assault rifle]] began in 1966 at the Central Design and Research Bureau of Sporting and Hunting Arms (TsKIB SOO). Development continued into the 1970s, and in 1978 it was accepted into service. The initial version was designated the BG-15 Mukha ("Fly"), and was mounted under the barrel of the AK-74 assault rifle. The main production version, the GP-25, has a different aiming system. The GP-30 was made lighter and the aiming system was redesigned and moved to the right. | | The development of a [[grenade launcher]] for the [[AKM]] [[assault rifle]] began in 1966 at the Central Design and Research Bureau of Sporting and Hunting Arms (TsKIB SOO).

| GP grenade launchers are similar in appearance and fire the same Russian 40mm caliber ammunition. At the top of the barrel is the mounting hardware to attach the weapon to the underside of a rifle barrel, from which it is designed to fire. The GP barrel has a useful life of about 400 rounds. | | GP grenade launchers are similar in appearance and fire the same Russian 40mm caliber ammunition.
