AK-47

Summary
The AK-47 is a type of Russian assault rifle that rapidly fires out high-powered bullets. These bullets deal ~1.3x more damage than an M16 assault rifle, which would make this gun significantly more powerful than it. Despite this, the AK-47 also has significantly reduced accuracy, as the bullets fired from this gun tend to spread pretty far the further they travel. It's clip is also slightly smaller than an M16, containing 10 bullets less than said weapon. Still, this weapon should not be underestimated, as it can quickly mow down zombies in just a couple of seconds and can make mince meat out of Tanks.

Background Story
Before the zombies attacked, this weapon was mainly used in the military for modern warfare. However, it is now being highly sought after as a precious zombie killing machine, with its numerous skin-piercing bullets and high-firerate. Many often compared this gun to the M16, due to their similarities. Weapons dealers were quickly able to make a buck off of selling these incredibly high-powered guns for high prices, and soon, the AK-47 was now one of many guns in the Survivor's arsenal against the zombie epidemic.

Tips

 * This weapon can take out most hefty zombies in a couple of shots.
 * Despite this weapon being a rifle, it isn't very effective at long ranges due to its increased bullet spread. Therefore, it is more recommended to use this weapon for more moderate-close quarters combat against zombies.
 * Use this weapon to shoot at zombies that are coming after you.
 * This weapon has a relatively high clip size, being 40. Thus, you won't have to worry about making your shots count.
 * If you decide to use this weapon on a Tank, make sure you aim mainly for the head as you'll inflict the most damage there.

Trivia

 * The AK-47's firerate in both ZAPT:R and L4D2 is actually slower than its real-life counterpart.
