AK-12 Rifle

The legend of the Russian AK Rifle has continued as media reported in November, 2014, that a new type, the AK-12, was being tested. The Kalashnikov AK-12 assault rifle is the newest creation from the IZMASH factory. It is intended to replace the older Kalashnikov AK-74M and AK-100-series with a lighter weight and higher firing accuracy. But will this newest type become another ace in the AK rifle family? Time will tell us the answer.
