| notes | "Photo is of an AKM. All 7.62x39 mm Kalashnikov assault rifles are very dependable weapons. They produce a high volume of fire and are simple to maintain and produce. The primary difference between the AK-47 and the improved AKM is the receiver. The receiver of the AK-47 is forged and machined while the receiver of the AKM is stamped metal facilitating easier and less costly manufacturing. Both the AK-47 and the AKM can mount a 40-mm under-barrel grenade launcher. The AK-47 and AKM have been replaced in many armies by the newer AK-74. The AK-74 is basically an AKM re-chambered to fire a 5.45x39 mm cartridge. The 7.62x39 mm RPK light machinegun is based on the AK/AKM design while the RPK-74 is a light machinegun version of the AK-74. Both are infantry squad level support weapons." |
