I took about an hour out of my life by writing the script to a 10 minute video to share in a Discord server. Thought I'd share my work. *Script:* What could be more iconic than the Kalashnikov? Rough-hewn from wood and iron, it's simple construction belies an enduring example of industrial design. It's the weapon of choice for a revolution, and the backbone of any insurgancy. So, what makes the AK so special? Why is a near 70 year old rifle still so popular? And is there really no substitute? The legendary rifle's story starts in Soviet Russia, in the embers of World War 2. This was an era of rapid technological progress amidst valiant acts - and the Soviet Union loved a hero. Mikhail Kalashnikov was a tanker in the Red Army, wounded in action in 1941. During his recuperation he learned of his comrade's woes with their issued rifles - and resulted to tackle them with a soldier-focused approach to small arms design; with innate usability borne from simplicity and reliable function. His early designs caught the eye of officials, and Kalashnikov found himself part of a small arms development group for the Red Army. The Soviets were not shy to take influence from what other forces were fielding - and between captured Nazi weapons, Allied supplies - and a long line of Russian prototypes - the AK-47 began to take shape. The German Sturmgewehr 44 was a major influence: with similar form factor, it proved the viability of a mid-power cartridge - and provided the gas system for Kalashnikov's design. The earlier RPD would also lend the intermediate cartridge to the AK-47: the 7.62x39mm round, also known as the M43. It's slightly tapered casing is responsible for giving the AK-47 it's distinctive curved magazine. In demonstrations, the 1947 prototype outperformed any rival, and was readily adopted by the Russians - although initial manufacturing issues did slow down deployment. These issues we're remedied by 1959, when a modernized version was introduced: known as the AKM. It replaced the milled receiver with a stamped metal one - both lighter and easier to produce, and was also equipped with a muzzle brake to improve the accuracy of automatic fire. There were a large number of variants of this basic design: from the AKS, with a folding stock; to a large number of foreign-produced AK pattern rifles, such as the Chinese Type 56; Hungarian AMD-65 or the Finnish Rk 62. The smaller caliber AK-74 emerged in 1975 - firing the lighter but higher velocity 5.54x39mm round: with greater wounding potential versus the older round, the AK-74 would supplement and eventually replaced the AKM in service. Pair these variants with such a broad service history, and you have a recipe for a very popular weapon indeed. There have been more Kalashnikov-pattern rifles made than all other assault rifles combined - in fact, of all the small arms that exist: 1 in 5 is an AK. It's utterly ubiquitous: found in every corner of the globe - and such is its influence, it even adorns the flag of Mozambique. No surprise, then, that the AK-47 is as popular in video games as it is with real life: with perhaps as many digital renditions as those stamped from steel. It's so well known that most instances - regardless of variant - are labeled as the 'AK-47', without fear of license rights: only the most cautious opting to use ersatz appellations, such as Goldeneye's 'KF-7 Soviet' or the 'CV-47' in earlier Counter-Strike games. These virtual depictions reflect the rifle's design in a variety of ways: but there's no mistaking the familiar characteristics of the AK. Often, a weapon's identity is forged by the powers that wield it: and with its prominent use by the Second World during the Cold War, the AK has come to symbolize the defiance and might of those who would oppose the west. It's the foil to the American M16, and the weapon of choice for any opposing force: and for that reason it's often the default option for the 'bad guys' in games that mirror any recent conflict. In some cases, like Counter-Strike, the AK is only available to the terrorist forces: and here it has prime placement, being the top-tier automatic weapon on offer, alongside the Counter-Terrorist's M4. Perhaps it's by its association with untrained militia fighters, or just by affinity by design: but long bursts of automatic fire - spray and pray - seems a natural fit for the AK. It has perfectly good accuracy, and is more than capable of hitting targets within its effective range: but somehow the AK doesn't feel like a marksman's rifle. Luckily, the weapon is quite suited to sustained fire: and this is normally reflected within its depiction. The AK's rate of fire is fairly moderate, and while recoil is present it's still possible to wrest the weapon onto a close-up get target. It's not particularly elegant, nor great for ammo conservation - but you've got 30 changes to hit something, even if it's not what you were aiming at. Of course, it's not just enough to be capable of automatic fire - a weapon must also be able to dole out magazine after magazine without stoppage or fuss. Luckily, the AK's reliability is legendary: with loose tolerances, and as simple a mechanism as possible - there's not too much that can go wrong, and even less that can't be put right. This is one trait that doesn't transfer well to video games: malfunctions are seldom shown, as firearm maintenance isn't a particularly exciting endeavor - and experiencing a feed failure mid-firefight would only prove frustrating. Some games do reflect these factors, however - perhaps most notably Far Cry 2, with scavenged weapons proving much less reliable than those bought brand new. Weapon condition is also a factor in some RPGs, such as in Fallout 3: but a poorly-kept weapon suffers only in the damage stakes, rather than with any interruption. It's this reliability and simplicity that gives the weapon much of its charm - other weapons might be more high-tech, but that does you no good if it chokes in dusty environments. It's seems also sacrilegious to tamper with the purity of the AK - strapping anything superfluous to the weapon is an insult to the design principles of Kalashnikov. Some games do let you customize your AK-47 with a variety of attachments: optics, suppressors, and garish paint jobs. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare had the right idea, as equipping a red-dot sight would harm the AK-47's long range damage, meaning the most sensible choice was just a plain rifle with iron sights. Remember: just because you can... doesn't mean you should. Of course, if you're some tin-pot dictator of some far-flung land you can generally do whatever you like - and this extends to having your favourite rifle gold-plated. Although such weapons are ornamental, and clearly not designed for the rigors of battle, some games do feature golden guns. Some represent the pinnacle of accomplishment with the weapon, a reward for the completion of challenges: while others just represent an absence of good taste. So, the AK-47. The very best there is. From drug lords to peasent rebellions, the AK is everyone's favourite weapon: a great equalizer, irrespective of wealth or status. It's not the most accurate weapon, nor the most elegant - but it simply doesn't have to be. It's good enough. It excels where fighters need it most: it's reliable. Stoppages are rare, and any faults that do occur can probably be fixed with a hammer. It's simple to use. There's no need to pore over a manual, the AK is point and shoot. It's so simple a child can use it - and in some parts of the world, they often do. It's cheap. Easy to manufacture and even easier to acquire - if you're looking to arm an insurrection on a budget, no other rifle will come close. It is an old weapon, but it's not yet outdated: at the end of World War 2, it was cutting edge - and led the way for the rise of the assault rifles during the 20th Century. Today, although not quite as high-tech as some infantry weapons, the AK-47 still performs its duty: and with 100 million rifles in existence, it's popularity is unlikely to evaporate any time soon. With it's widespread use and low cost, the weapon can be counted alongside the most basic of tools: The hammer; The sickle; The AK-47.

But seeing all the AKs around, I couldn't help but know their names. AK-47. AK-47. AK-47. Soon, I was able to differentiate an american - used rifle (M16, AR-15, M4A1, SCAR FAMILY) from an AK-47.

You forgot that it was made for the simple untrained soldier. Unlike most rifles it was not suited for ranges above 400m as the Russian soldier would never hit something above that range. Also the Mode selector is like this: safety, Full auto, semi auto. This is due to the following reason: When in a fire fight the soldier would simply slam the safety off and don’t think about its position. Just push it all the way trough and pull the trigger until the weapon stops shooting. Now it’s bad to have an empty mag before the fight began so they put semi auto at the last position. Resulting in firing only one bullet and giving the soldier time to think. Also the incredible reliability makes it perfect for war. Never jams. Does not need excessive cleaning. And works in almost all condition

[@SenorZorros]

It was actually the Germans who first concluded that and in general pretty common knowledge. In combat situations almost no soldier hits beyond 400m.

The AK is actually accurate but being very accurate or even the soldier being able to shoot at ranges over 400 meters is pretty useless as you aren't supposed to shoot at such ranges and most firefights happen in well below 100 meter ranges.

Another funny concidence: Some of the first commercially successful computers in Russia had hard drives made by a company called Winchester, a different Winchester from the gun company, though. It's can accepted slang to refer to the HDD as the Винчестер
