The AK-47 : Kalashnikov-Series Assault Rifles PDF
by Gordon L. Rottman
Illustrated by Johnny Shumate, Alan Gilliland
Part of the Weapon series
Description
A detailed, fully illustrated study of the most recognizable assault rifle ever produced.
The Kalashnikov AK-47 is the most ubiquitous assault rifle in the world, with more AK-47s and its variants in use than any other individual small arm. Created by Senior Sergeant Mikhail Kalashnikov, and first adopted by the USSR soon after World War II, its production continues to this day, with an estimated 75 million produced worldwide.
Supported by photographs and original artwork, this book takes a look at the complete history of the weapon, discussing its design, development, and usage, taking its story from the great armies of the Soviet Union to the insurgents and criminal gangs that often employ the weapon today.
