The AK-47 (Avtomat Kalashnikova 1947) is an Assault Rifle. It is a very popular Primary Weapon in Combat Arms due to its excellent accuracy and high damage.

OverviewEdit

In terms of general statistics, the AK-47 is one of the most powerful Assault Rifles in the game. It is a solid three-shot kill weapon. A suppressor only brings it down to a borderline three or four shot kill. Its power is balanced by a high amount of recoil, spread, and slow rate of fire. Attaching an ITech or HDS-4 sight can greatly improve the steady aiming of the AK while maintaining its powerful damage. While the recoil can make the AK-47 difficult to use, tap firing with it results in surprisingly accurate shots. Overall, the AK-47 has one of the better accuracy rating. Tap firing this gun is recommended to be able to proficiently use this weapon. The spread is extremely high after 10-15 shots with full auto making this weapon very hard to spray with.

TriviaEdit

• This assault rifle was designed between 1944-1946 by Mikhail Kalashnikov and is still in use today.
• Most "AK-47s" you see in movies, games, and even in real life aren't actual AK-47s. They are most likely AKMs, AK-74s, or the Chinese Type 56 assault rifle. They only call it the AK-47 because the general population is more familar with it. Combat Arms is no exception as the in-game rifle resembles an AKM.
• The AK-47 is one of the most accurate Assault Rifles in the game when in reality, it is the opposite. The gun's 7.62x39mm round is designed more for sheer power than accuracy or range. However, the gun's real life inaccuracy may be "emulated" in-game by its high recoil pattern.
• The AK series of weapons were designed to be cheap and easily produced in large quantities. This, along with their long service life and countless variants makes it the most manufactured assault rifle of all time. There are more AKs in the world than every other assault rifle combined.
• The AK-47 has the second highest damage out of any assault rifle in the entire game after the AN-94, excluding rifles like the M14 and the G3 since they are actually battle rifles in real life.
• The AK-47 was on sale for permanent duration from November 26th at 11:00 am PST to November 29th at 11:00 am PST for 60,000 GP to celebrate Black Friday 2010. It was offered for the second time for a permanent duration for 100k GP during "The Best of 2010 Sale". It was offered for perm again at Black Friday 2011 at 70,000 GP.
• This weapon is the second most commonly used by hackers. (Second to the default M16A3) In some cases, people will assume you're a hacker because you use this gun.
• There are approximately 75 million AK-47's and approximately 100 million AK-type rifles that have been made, since so many AK-47's and AK-type rifles have been and are still being made, it is next to impossible to get a accurate number.
• In real life, the AK-47 and AKM, with the 7.62×39mm cartridge, has a maximum effective range of around 400 metres (1,320 feet).
• The AK-47 is considered the best AR for the ability to be throw down in the mud & sand and still be able to fire with no problems.
• This Rifle is very easy to modify (IRL) it can exept many different types of scopes(with only the addition of a rail mount) and works very well for most combat situations.
• Newest model of the AK-47. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AK-12
