| - | ===Overview===
| + | |
| - | Easy to clean, reload, use and maintain the KLT-97 is designed as a parallel to the AK-47 and 74. The large gas piston, generous clearances between moving parts, and tapered cartridge case design allow the gun to endure large amounts of foreign matter and fouling without failing to cycle. However increased stability of the parts means that the loss of precision seen in the AK variants is not present in the KLT-97. The notched rear tangent iron sight is adjustable, each setting denoting hundreds of meters. The front sight is a post adjustable for elevation in the field. Windage adjustment is done by the armory prior to issue. The battle setting places the round within a few centimeters above or below the point of aim out to approximately 250 meters (275 yd). This "point-blank range" setting allows the shooter to fire the gun at any close target without adjusting the sights. Longer settings are intended for area suppression. The bore and chamber, as well as the gas piston and the interior of the gas cylinder, are generally chromium-plated. This plating dramatically increases the life of these parts by resisting corrosion and wear. This is particularly important, as most military-production ammunition during the 20th century contained corrosive mercuric salts in the primers, which mandated frequent and thorough cleaning in order to prevent damage.

| + | |
| - | Reloadic is a simple exercise, a bolt is slide back allong the side of the gun and slotted into a catch near the grip. This then allows the top section holding the magazine to be opened on a hinge near the end of the barrel, and the magazine to be slid from position. Another loaded magazine is then slid into place, the bolt is then flicked out of the catch which by spring system sends it back to the end of the barrel, locking in the new magazine. The top section is then replaced and pulled back, thus loading fully the magazine and locking the top section back in place. The rifle is then cocked by squeezing the bottom grip of the barrel and pulling back (or on stripped down versions, by pulling back a bolt on the underside) the firer may then simply point and pull the trigger. The need to reload again is signified by a loud metallic click, as the last bullet leaves the magazine.
