Trivia

 * It has the lowest magazine capacity for an assault rifle alongside M14 EBR.
 * The SVDEX's grenade launcher ejects a whole unfired grenade when reloading, while other grenade launchers like the M32, OICW and the M79 ejects empty grenade shells when reloaded.
 * Despite having the animations for it, the SVDEX never drawn out with the grenade ready to fire - it always drawn out in rifle mode.
