AK-47

The AK-47 , officially known as Avtomat Kalashnikova (Russian: Автомат Калашникова , also known as 'Kalashnikov automatic [rifka]'; also known as Kalashnikov or just AK ), is a gas-powered assault rifle with a chambered 7.62 × 39 mm cartridge. Developed by Russian small arms designer Mikhail Kalashnikov in the Soviet Union, the firearm is the original firearm of the Kalashnikov (or 'AK') family of rifles.. After more than seven decades since its creation, the AK-47 model and its variants remain one of the most popular and widely used firearms in the world.
The AK-47 was used by the Russian Armed Forces and forces from other Eastern European countries who modernised the weapon and used it during the World War III. After the atomic bombs fell, the survivors formed factions and acquired the damaged AK assault rifles, and it became one of the most popular weapons in America and Eastern European countries.
