Description
The AK-74 is presently the standard issue rifle in the Russian military. As a descendant of the notorious AK-47, the AK-74 boasts proven reliability joined with the improved long-distance performance of the 5.45x39mm NATO round. Due to its optical plate, the AK-74 can be equipped with a vast array of sighting options.
This particular model is an AK-101 which is exactly the same as the AK-74 with the exception of firing the more popular 5.56x45mm round.
