The MGP-15, designed for issue to special forces, was known as the MGP-15 before, but was updated with a longer barrel and a forward-facing magazine, which serves as a foregrip. The name was changed to reflect some slight changes introduced during production, most noticeably the revision of the screwed-on muzzle cap to allow the installation of a suppressor. A folding butt stock is provided, so arranged that with the butt folded along the right-hand side of the receiver the butt plate can act as a form of foregrip. The MGP-84 is a basic blowback weapon with the box magazines being inserted through the pistol grip. The result is a very compact weapon that can be easily carried. An even more compact MGP-14 carbine version exists, as does a so-called 'machine pistol'.
