Burke[src]

The Kalashnikov AK-47 is a Tau'ri-made firearm of the assault rifle pattern, which was designed by Russia in late 1940's. The AK-47 is one of the most copied weapons in the history of assault rifles, with literally hundreds of nations making their own clones of the weapon in the years since its creation,[1] It is known to be used by Raphael's faction in Honduras,[2] the Taliban in Afghanistan,[3] the Cult of Setesh,[4] while the Russian Air Force uses more modern variants.[5]
