It's really surprising that while contributors are so precise and thorough with AR15/M16 variants, there is little info on AK variants on this Wiki. Considering that at least Soviet/Russian mods are few and widely documented, it would be only fair. For example, the lower receiver on AK and AKS looks remarkably different (I don't have the expertise to point out exactly how, though I can check in Russian sources and deliver), but it is neglected by their descriptions. Of course, the original milled varieties are almost non-existent in movies, but still. | It's really surprising that while contributors are so precise and thorough with AR15/M16 variants, there is little info on AK variants on this Wiki.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the new AK-74M pic? It seems out of place, as it shows the right side of the weapon and "almost" all the other AK pics show the left side. :\ - [[User:Mr. Wolf|Mr. Wolf]] 20:37, 17 August 2011 (CDT) | Am I the only one who doesn't like the new AK-74M pic?

Did anyone ever make a synthetic handguard for the AKS-74u with picatinny rails on it? I'd like to see somethin like that. That's One Angry Duck 23:42, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
Eh, though I dont share your enthusiasm on it, they do. There's a picture on here some where of an AKSU picatinny kit. Its on the AK-47 page I believe.
Thanks.
- You'd be surprised, but the name AK-47 had arrived in Russia from the USA. In the USSR, he had the name just "AK". AK was adopted by the Soviet army in 1949 (not in 1947!!!). Where did the index of 47 - probably only know American journalists. But since the 1990's now even in Russia, it has name is AK-47. Slow Rider 16:10, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, same with Mosin-Nagant. It's painful to see that in all games, even in MGS3. The rifle's name was just Mosin M91 or M91/30. Never "Mosin-Nagant".
Dare to say, it is rifle model 1891/1930 =) and so on, sniper rifle 1891/1931, carbine model 1944...

AK-74M
