An interesting thing to note is that the holographic sight will, for some weird reason, give the AK-47 the same amount of wall penetration as if it had FMJ on (minus the visual effect FMJ has obviously), so the holographic sight is essentially two attachements in one. It's the best choice if you don't use a suppressor. It's obviously a bug and is still left unpatched to this day. Similarly, the holographic sight slightly increases the FAL's base damage by 5 points making it a two-shot kill at any distance even with a suppressor, and a one shot headshot still at all distances. Using Bling and pairing the holographic sight with a suppressor is incredibly deadly. Yet another thing about that weird glitchy sight is that it also massively reduces recoil on the M16A4, making it more accurate than the Famas at all ranges. Yeah, the holographic sight sure is a strange thing in this game.

[@Alanas125]

thanks for the tips, im still playing mw2 to this day ;)

[@kyleshadeck8879]

Mw2 attachments and guns were actually strangely peculiar. In addition to the glitches you already named, there are also some guns with misaligned sights, silencers that didn't silence, and a few others that I can't think of at the moment. I kind of liked it to be honest. It added a little extra spice to the game

XboxAhoy, I just wanted to thank and congratulate you for one of the most in-depth and consistent weapon guides on the Internet; I've seen quickie guides that cover broad categories such as "Shotguns" and "Machine Pistols', but never would I expect a guide that covered each individual weapon to such a meticulate degree (1000 AK kills just for this one video? That, my friends, is dedication). Badass accent, slick style and pro-level gameplay make this the best series on KZbin. Ahoy!

[@gyuru1234]

The thing i find the most funny about CoD is that FMJ (Full Metal Jacket) ammo is the standard ammo used, for all firearms. Its the only ammo the US is allowed to be Anti-personnel use. It does make it stronger compared to HP (Hollow Point) and SP (Soft Point) ammunition, so saying that FMJ makes a weapon stronger is incorrect. due to the fact that you'd be using it in a combat scenario anyways. The reason that you wouldnt want to use HP and SP ammo is that they cant punch threw much, but the 7.62x39 fired from an AK style rifle would punch through anything pretty much....

Thank you very much for that series, I feel it really aided my gameplay in MW2. It certainly opened my play style to several more weapons, and I really liked the way it was presented. First you begin with a short history of the weapon, then move on to attachments and perks to be used, and finally the flaws. As a further bonus, you don't seem hugely opinionated on any one gun or play style. I love it, and thank you yet again.

[@kaybevang536]

MW2 the most beefiest AK along with the M16

[@brainwasher9876]

The sway can be a bigger problem than XboxAhoy implied, especially at range. This is particularly apparent when compared to the TAR-21, which (with attachments) shoots faster, but is also superior for long range. This gun is honestly not bad just naked, so that getting long range kills are easier. FMJ's not a big deal in MW2 where people die near-instantaneously, and the sights are for the most part just decoration.

[@KRIMZONMEKANISM]

I love this gun, in my opinion it's the coolest version of te AK that's ever been on the cod series, and i love having the grenade launcher on it because it just looks special :)

KRIMZONMEKANISM Fact: it's the only assault rifle in MW2 that's uses the launcher specifically made for it (in this case, the GP-25 on the AK-47. Everything else runs the M203, which should only apply for American weapons, and even then, doesn't always apply).

[@samue1991]

Naked ak was also the best hard core gun. The recoil was just tight enough to insure you get one bullet on target, and loose enough that even if you are off a little bit, you will land one on target. And, it's perfect for long range, especially with zero idle sway. You can hold down an area soo well

[@lioncelica5170]

DucklingOnCrack That's the ironic thing. The Russian military still hasn't worn out their AK 74's, so they have no need to buy any of the AK 100 series, let alone the AN94. They're kind of being forced to use the AK 12 from what I've read. Literally destroying perfectly good AK's so the company doesn't go out of business.

[@ShadeSlayer1911]

I'm getting the idea that COD has a trend of balancing weapons over realism. That's dumb.

[@MarneusCalgar42]

Yes they are, and that is one of the reasons why MW2 was unfortunately the last game with realistic guns.

[@RandomDood2012]

ShadeSlayer1911 I'd take balance over Realism. Imagine if all guns were one hit kills (to vital organs, obviously a 9x19mm to the foot won't kill anyone) and has realistic trajectory. Even Battlefield doesn't have one hit kills, although I do very much enjoy Battlefield realistic physics in its engine that Call of Duty lacks. But having guns programmed exactly like their real life counterparts would be a balancing nightmare. The developers try to be realistic in terms of Rate of Fire, and mimicking damage. Like the M4A1 across the CoD series has generally been a low damaged assault rifle, because it fires 5,56x45mm; as in the AK-47 (even though pretty much every appearance of the AK-47 is incorrect, CoD4 was really the only one to match the in-game model with the true AK, MW2's is actually an AK-103 with Picatinny rails, Black Ops is actually a Type-56 [used by Viet Cong] or a AKM [used by Russians], and MW3's is a mocked up AK-103) the AK has been a higher damage weapon for firing the larger 7,62x39mm. But obviously CoD has much different gamestyle than Battlefield, and I's like them being different than being the same generic game (although every CoD after MW3 was a huge disappointment to me, I'm more into Battlefield now). Battlefield balences too for damage, I'm sure most BF players don't want another BF3 USAS. *TL;DR* Balance is good. If they weren't balanced people would endlessly complain about OP guns.

[@RandomDood2012]

***** Yeah well good luck with that. Black Ops 3 was announced today. Though, I'm not even gonna buy it. It's not worth it.

[@mightza3781]

If the guns were realistic, it would play like Arma.The AK would do the same damage as sniper rifles as they make the same size hole as it punctures flesh and leaves the body unless you are dealing with distances beyond 500 yards which the sniper rifle is intended to be used. Pistol ammo that doesn't over penetrate would have more stopping power than an assault rifle bullet that rips through flesh, unless the bullet tumbles at its ideal range. It would be easier just to give guns an incapacitation percentage instead of damage and a death countdown till you bleed out.

[@livforaction]

Nation of Spikes no no no not realistic guns everyone ran stopping power broke the fucking game

[@benbilbrey749]

I love the firing sound. ☺️

[@theimperialcombine]

Honestly while mostly a Fiction take on the AK Family of Rifles, I'd be lying if I Said I didn't like this look over the AK-12 for modern kalashnikov

[@brainwasher9876]

I'd actually recommend going with no attachments on the AK. The sights aren't necessary once you get used to iron sights, and the others simply don't benefit you that much. With the idle sway added the AK is very difficult to use at very long range, but without it, it handles almost as well as the AK in Cod4.

[@narutowhy1]

I don't know what you guys are talking about. The AK47 in every incarnation has been awesome. I never played COD4 but i've seen videos. In MW2, it's my 2nd favorite rifle after the ACR. It's my favorite in Black Ops and it's my tied for favorite in MW3 with the ACR 6.8. I love using the AK47

[@sneakyshadow7]

The AK's 3 hit kill only extends a couple meters/yards further. The high recoil and low rate of fire is outclassed by all assault rifles except for the CM901. They have less recoil (which allows more shots to hit the target) and a faster ROF (which obviously drops people faster)

No, the AK47 design is based off the MP-44 or STG-44 design. The STG-44 was the first assault rifle made by Nazi Germany, and Kalashnikov was a tank driver during WWII and got injured in battle. While he was in the hospital, he studied the STG -44's design and loved it. And thus, the Ak47 was born.

[@Combobaracker]

No AK-variant is supposed to have an M4 style stock like the one in game. But you can put one on if you want to and purchase the right parts, its called customization. No unmodified AK straight out of the factory looks like the one in game,not the AKM, not the AK74, not the AK-10X series and not the AK-12. Its a heavily customized AK47.

[@blowmonkey51]

Whats funny is this AK 47 isnt a 47 but rather an AKM or AK74 or even a hybrid of the AKM and AK74. IMFDB has all the proof.

[@DeadFishFactory]

The M21 is the sniper variant of the M14. The M21 EBR is just the name they use to let you know that it's the sniper variant of the MK14 Mod0 (since it is classified as a sniper in MW2). In MW3, it's an assault rifle, so it's called the MK14.

The description from this video is slightly inaccurate. The mosin nagant fires 7.62×54R and the first assault rifle was the Cei Rigotti. It was the first automatic rifle. Others consider the first assault rifle the fedorov avtomat. The fedorov avtomat was also used by soviet special forces during ww2.

[@Hellfire36]

The problem isn't the recoil itself, as it does stay on target pretty easily. The problem is the visual recoil, and how the sights shake up and down, obscuring your view, not letting you see what you're shooting.
