The gun which replaced the akm (upgraded ak-47) in the mid 70's in the soviet armed forces. Cartridge: 5.45x39mm Rate of fire: 600 rounds per minute Fire modes: safe-semi auto-full auto Action: long stroke gas piston The 5.45x39 is much faster and more accurate then the ak-47 7.62x39. The ak-74 also has a muzzle brake which allows it to have the lease amount of recoil of any assualt rifle. The ak-74 is more reliable then the ak-47 because it has a bigger shell extractor. A little know fact about the 5.45x39 is that it still has quite a bit of stopping power. When the 5.45x39 hits anything it immidiatly flips around, leaving a nasty wide hole in the target. This is quite unlike the m-16's 5.56x45 and the ak-47's 7.62x39 rounds as they just pencil right thru flesh leaving a small hole.

The ak-74 has been used by the russians since 1990 in the form of the ak-74m.

Other varients:

U=shortened S=folding stock aks-74: folding stock varient aks-74u Krinkov: folding stock and short barrel ak-74m: current issue russian rifle, polymer furniture instead of wood and has a folding stock ak-74u- a varient that is only found in video games, if this gun did exist then it would have a short barrel but no folding stock. The ak-74 is a rifle not a submachine gun

A way to tell the ak-74 and the ak-47 apart is that the ak-74 has an almost straight magazine and the ak-47 mag is shaped like a bannana
