  1. Gun autist here: the AK-47 is simply the name of the stamped sheet steel prototype. The Russians had problems with stamping and the welds of the guide rails breaking so they adopted a milled receiver rifle called the AK. In 1959 they finally adopted the AK as we know it, under the designation AKM.

  2. The AK-47 was never adopted, it was a prototype. Then the Russians made a milled receiver variant and adopted it as the "AK". When they finally got the stamped design right, as Kalashnikov intended, they adopted it as the "AKM" in 1959.

  3. He is almost correct because the AK as we know it was only adopted in 1959. The AK-47 was the name of a prototype and was never adopted. The Russians adopted a milled receiver "AK" (not 47) because they couldn't get the stamping receiver right. In the late 1950's the AK as we know it was adopted as the "AKM".

  4.  @kylehayes6432  Saudi Arabia doesn't work with others. Others work for Saudi Arabia. They have the oil and it's a seller's market.

  5.  @Dr_Hoops_McCann  the US didn't sit back. The US hit Japan with embargos and sanctions while sending vital military aid to the Soviets.

  6.  @jawisher  the design is different. That's why it took 12 years to get the final version into the hands of soldiers.
