Typical settings: Cold War conflicts, revolutionary movements, guerrilla warfare films, and global military stories.
This non-firing replica rifle is modeled after the AK-47, short for Avtomat Kalashnikova, Model 1947. Often referred to as AK47, AK 47, or simply the Kalashnikov, the rifle was designed by Mikhail Kalashnikov during World War II and adopted by the Soviet Union in the early Cold War period.
Historically, the AK-47 became the standard infantry rifle of the USSR and was widely supplied to Eastern Bloc nations and allied movements. Its widespread distribution and long service life made it one of the most recognizable and influential firearms of the 20th century.
Cinematically, the wood-stock AK-47 functions as visual shorthand for organized military forces, insurgents, and ideological conflict. Film and television use its unmistakable profile to instantly establish Cold War, revolutionary, or post-colonial settings.
Manufactured in Spain by Denix, this non-firing replica is constructed of metal and wood with a simulated loading and firing mechanism and removable magazine. It is set safe and intended for film, television, theater, rehearsal, and display use only.
