Denix decorative replica of the AK47 Russian assault rifle

Reproduction of rifle, metal and wood, with simulation mechanism of load and shooting, detachable parts and removable magazine.
The AK-47, acronym for Avtomat Kalashnikova model 1947, was designed in 1942 by Mikhail Kalashnikov, a Russian fighter during the Second World War. The particularity of this rifle is its cartridge refueling system, which uses the force of the combustion gases produced by the shot to facilitate the placement of a new cartridge in the weapon chamber and expel the bush already used. In addition, its curved store, which gives it a larger capacity in a smaller space, is also a hallmark.
Converted into an official rifle of the USSR between 1947 and 1978, it is currently the most used firearm in the world. In 1949, the Red Army adopted it as the main infantry weapon, replacing the PPSh-41 submachine gun, although it was not until 1954 that it entered into service on a large scale. He was then elected by the Eastern Bloc countries in the Warsaw Pact as a regulatory weapon for their armies during the Cold War.
