Ahh yes, the AK47.
You know you can fill it with sand, submerge it in water and run it over, and it'll still work?

Classic example of KISS engineering.
However, I also hear that on full automatic only the first 3 bullets will go anywhere near what you are aiming at.

Yeah, best keeping it on semi-auto if you want to hit anything.
The barrel is very unstable, I hear, and it tends to wobble quite a lot.
Still though, the design hasn't really changed all that much for 75 years, just goes to show how well it works in context.
