The firearms that were seen in the 2007 movie The Kite Runner include the following...

Norinco Type 56 assault rifle

Used by the Taliban in Afghanistan. A number of Red Army soldiers were also seen armed with Norinco Type 56 rifles (since the film was made in China, the production crew didn't have access to genuine Russian-made Kalashnikov rifles and had to use Chinese ones instead) during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan

Norinco Type 56 (fixed stock variant) with under-folding bayonet ("pig sticker") - 7.62x39mm
Norinco Type 56 (Imported into the U.S. as the Norinco AKS-47 or AKS-47 Sporter) - 7.62x39mm. This particular gun lacks the "pig sticker" bayonet seen on the model above, which was standard on PLA-issue Type 56s, but much rarer on the export versions.
Norinco Type 56-1 (under-folding stock variant) - 7.62x39mm
Norinco Type 56-2 (side-folding stock variant) - 7.62x39mm
