Ak 5C/Ak 5CF The Ak 5C is an updated version of the original Ak 5. It has no open sights, but is instead mounted with the MIL-STD-1913 rail system on to which a wealth of different sights can be mounted, for example the SUSAT. The Ak 5C will most likely be the new standard weapon of the Swedish Army, together with the Ak 5D. The Picatinny rail is a bracket used on some firearms in order to provide a standardized mounting for sniper scopes and other accessories. ...
Before the Ak 5C goes in to mass production it is to be thoroughly evaluated. This is done by letting certain units try an experimental model called the Ak 5CF where F stands for the Swedish word försök (meaning, in this context, experiment/trial). These are the new features of the Ak 5CF compared to the original Ak 5: Mass production is the production of large amounts of standardised products on production lines. ...

Ak 5D The latest modification of the Ak 5 is designated Ak 5D and most notably has a shorter barrel. Just as the Ak 5C it is mounted with the MIL-STD 1913 rail system to allow for easy mounting of a variety of sights. The barrel of a firearm is the tube, usually metal, through which a controlled explosion is released in order to propel a projectile out of the end at great speed. ...
Due to the smaller dimensions of the weapon, the Ak 5D is used especially by personnel in crowded spaces such as the Swedish urban warfare units and on certain marine units. The Swedish police are also equipped with a version of the Ak 5D, see below. Urban warfare simulations are part of U.S. Army war exercises. ...

CGA5P The Swedish and Norwegian police are equipped with a special version of the Ak 5D called CGA5P or sometimes, incorrectly, Ak 5DP. Essentially it is a black Ak 5D (instead of the regular military green) with the automatic mode blocked with an Allen key. Unlike the Ak 5D, the police version has fixed sights but is still equipped with the MIL-STD 1913 rail system. Eventually, telescopic sights or red dot sights will be used. Unlike its military counterparts, the police version also has safety catches on both sides of the weapon. An Allen wrench, Allen key, hex key or hex head wrench is a tool used to drive screws and bolts with a hexagonal socket in the head. ...
