The (47) is the year it was made which was 19(47). The Russian assault rifle caught on fast and is still a weapon of choice in many countries. Now,it is so popular many countries make their own versions and one country even has a AK-47 on its flag. There are over 70,000,000 AK-47s made and over 15,000,000 being used.(above)
2. Taking after the AK-47, The Dragunov sniper rifle is a gas powered rifle that hold 20 rounds.(above)
3. The SKS semi auto gas rifle is again modeled after the AK-47,but it has something unusual which is a springloaded pin that loads another round in. The rifle usually comes with a bayonet and a five round magizne.(above)
4. Almost identical to the AK-47, the AK-74 is still gas powered and holds as much rounds but it's a new and inproved version of the AK-47,by shooting farther and is more effectively.(above)
5.The RPD light machine gun is a gas powered gun related to the AK-47, it holds 50-60 rounds and is a stationary machine gun.(above)
6.The Galil is Israel's version of the AK-47 which means it is still gas powered. as you can see the Galils' sights are farther apart then the AK-47s' sights making the Galil more accurate.(above)
