TKB-011 (ТКБ-011), TKB-011M (ТКБ-011М) and TKB-011 2M (ТКБ-011 2М) were Soviet bullpup assault rifles, capable of fully automatic fire, chambered for the 7.62×39mm round, developed by the small arms designer Nikolai M. Afanasyev from 1963 to 1965.[1]
The internals of the weapons were made of steel and the externals bakelite. These assault rifles and the TKB-022PM were the first to use a tunnel type ejection port, which is now used on the FN F2000.
