Strategies
- Despite being typically seen as a spray-and-pray weapon, it (along with all full-auto weapons) is capable of controlled burst fire. Simply don't hold the trigger down like an untrained insurgent.
- As the AK-47 is not particularly accurate and has relatively high recoil, it has a shorter effective range than other assault rifles.
Trivia
- The AK-47 has a lower ammo efficiency (50% vs 67%) compared to other assault rifles as its 7.62 x 39 mm cartridge is larger that the 5.56 x 45 mm cartridge.
- Despite firing a larger bullet, the AK-47 does less damage than the M16.
- Before the model was updated, the design and name of the weapon was mistaken twice, both on the gun's name and description. The actual design (as it appeared) was actually an AK-74.
- Additionally, the AK-47's old model was ripped directly from the original game.
- Before the 5.0 Halloween update, this weapon used to have a Lucky Shot upgrade.
