Why did AK47 become a gangster's favorite?

1. It is easy to get. This gun type has a large output, so it is relatively easy to get.

2. Low price, especially in war-torn countries or border areas.

3. Easy maintenance and high reliability, suitable for fighting in most landforms and various weather conditions. For example, the American M- 16 automatic rifle is in the desert, the muzzle should be put on, and even the gun body should be wrapped with canvas to prevent sandstorms from entering, while AK-47 is not used. It can be filmed in windy weather, swamps, tropical jungles and water without cleaning, even American Hummers.

4. Strong firepower, AK-47 uses 7.62 mm caliber bullets, with good lethality and armor-piercing ability. For example, during the Vietnam War, American soldiers hid behind trees, and Vietnam disease directly penetrated trees and killed American soldiers with AK-47. Of course, AK-47 has better armor-piercing ability now.

5. Close combat is possible, and the gun body itself is durable.

6. Shooting loudly can give the enemy a psychological deterrent.

7. Simple operation. Most terrorists or gangsters have not received good military training or knowledge of firearms, so simple firearms are convenient for them to use.

8. The firing rate is high, and drums can be used to increase firepower, especially in some countries, where ordinary police are overwhelmed.

9 accuracy, AK-47 is not as accurate as M- 16 rifle, but its accuracy is similar to M- 150m-250m, and its killing effect is better, which is enough for them.

So gangsters like to use AK-47 as their preferred personal weapon.
