Nothing wrong with the original AK-47. I saw Kalshanikov on one of those gun shows on History Channel and he said he was not a big fan of the 5.56 for the AK-74. The Kremlin for some reason got scared of the M-16 and told Kalshanikov to make adopt the AK-47 for the smaller round.

It is probably based on AEK-971 and the AK-107/108 designs. AK-107 has replaced some of the AK-74’s in service with the MVD and some airborne units.

“Kalashnikov received Russia’s highest honorary title on his 90th birthday last November. Accepting the award, Kalashnikov voiced regret that his creation, the world’s most widely used rifle, has been often misused.”
