. AK-74

Better precision than AK-47 and smaller rounds which grounds lower recoil gives AK-74 a good standing in this list. Fitted muzzle breaks further reduce the recoil but the AK-74 is less reliable than the 47. The rifle causes less damage compared to an AK-47. The uniqueness of AK-74 lies in its weight. A 10 magazine, 300 round ammunition would weigh around 12.1 lbs – a weight equal to that of a 6 magazine, 180 round AK-47.
