The AK-47, designed by Mikhail Kalashnikov in 1947, is often called the “King of Weapons” or the “Rifle of the Century.” While not the most technologically advanced firearm, its simplicity, durability, and reliability have made it the most successful and widely used rifle in history. Built to function in extreme conditions — from deserts to jungles — the AK-47 rarely jams and requires minimal maintenance, making it the weapon of choice for soldiers, militias, and revolutionaries across the globe. With over 100 million produced, its influence extends far beyond the battlefield, shaping conflicts and cultures for decades. The AK-47’s combination of power, affordability, and ease of use turned it into a global icon of warfare and resistance — a symbol recognized everywhere.
