The Avtomat Kalasknikova (AK47) was a firearm developed by our comrade Mikhail Kalashnikov during his time on sick leave after being injured in a tank battle in WW2. The AK47 fires 7.62x39 and has a 30 round magazine capacity. The rifle was finished in 1947 and directly replaced the SKS carbine firing the same cartridge. The rifle is extremely durable and can withstand nearly every situation. The trigger guard and charging handle are large to allow gloved fingers to operate the rifle. It is extremely simple to clean and operate. The later model, the AKM, was created to modernize the rifle, with changes made to how it was manufactured to make it cheaper. The AK74 was created to accomodate the 5.45 cartridge
