The AKMSU SMG has been produced by the USSR from 1975 to 1979 ans distributed to special forces and paratroopers, but they were in many cases too hard to handle to be used effectively, so many were scrapped. In 1979 they were replaced by the AKS74U and the remaining guns were shipped to allied countries like Iraq. Very hard to find, hollywood armories usually carry foreign copys (From Zastava) or mock-ups made with parts of AKS74Us. Standard AKMSU has a forward grip and under-folding stock. | The AKMSU SMG has been produced by the USSR from 1975 to 1979 ans distributed to special forces and paratroopers, but they were in many cases too hard to handle to be used effectively, so many were scrapped.

Info source please? As far as i know AKMSU was never mass-produced by USSR. It was abandoned because of obvious problems -- too short barrel that resulted in unsatisfactory bullet ballistics and quick overheating. | |||

Image gallery - OTHER variants of the AK-47
Since members get confused by some of the other (usually customized) variants made for movies, we should store the images here, so that all members can easily find a variant that they've seen in a movie or tv show. Note: These do NOT belong on the main AK-47 page because they are customized guns for films and not indicative of any 'production gun'. They are stored here for viewing and usage on movie pages that require them.
The Romanian WASR-3
Should we have a section for the WASR-3?
- Yeah, I suppose we could do that, since they've appeared in at least three movies that we know of (Casino Royale, Sahara, and now Hotel Rwanda). I would also like to do a section for the Romanian AIM series, which appears in Street Kings and 44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shoot-out.

- Looks like someone took the Type 84S from Hollow Point and added some wierd-looking muzzle brake and bleached the furniture. Orca1 9904 05:06, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

AKMSU
The AKMSU SMG has been produced by the USSR from 1975 to 1979 ans distributed to special forces and paratroopers, but they were in many cases too hard to handle to be used effectively, so many were scrapped. In 1979 they were replaced by the AKS74U and the remaining guns were shipped to allied countries like Iraq. Very hard to find, hollywood armories usually carry foreign copys (From Zastava) or mock-ups made with parts of AKS74Us. Standard AKMSU has a forward grip and under-folding stock.

East German AKs
Should we have a section for the Mpi-KMS or any East German AK variants because I saw them in Hotel Rwanda and The Hurt Locker, I have no more info because I am new to this site
- Yes, but be sure they really are NVA (East German) AKs. MoviePropMaster2008 02:37, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
Zastava M70AB2
I got the picture of the Zastava M70AB2 with standard black pistol grip, should I post it on the main page or keep it here?
