The '''AK-47''' is an [[Assault Rifle|assault rifle]] in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], and [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]]. A silenced version is seen in the [[Grand Theft Auto V]] trailer as well.

== Description ==
The AK-47 fires powerful rounds and is the most powerful assault rifle available in the [[GTA III Era]] games. The AK-47, however, has a low rate of fire, and suffers from tremendous recoil and accuracy problems with long range. It is a common sight in the hands of many gangs on the later missions throughout the games. The AK-47 does not appear in GTA Vice City, being replaced by the [[Ruger]]. However its model and texture are still in the game files.

It is a common sight in the hands of many gangs on the later missions throughout the games. The AK-47 does not appear in GTA Vice City, being replaced by the [[Ruger]]. However its model and texture are still in the game files. Additionally, on the [[iOS]] and [[Android]] versions of the game, a blue-and-pink version of the AK-47's GTA III weapon icon appears in the HUD data files, internally named "hud_ak47".


In GTA IV, the AK-47 is referenced in-game as the '''Assault Rifle'''. It can be purchased from the back-alley gun shops for [[Money|$]]3,500 and each additional magazine costs $80. It can also be purchased from [[Little Jacob]] for $2,450 with each additional magazine costing $55. Like almost all other guns, this a 1 headshot kill in single player and in multiplayer, a 2 headshot kill. It is the starting weapon when the weapons are set to assault rifles. This cannot be fired from a car; however, it can be fired by a passenger in either a helicopter or boat. While the AK-47 is good, the M4 is better. While the AK-47 has better power, the M4 has better accuracy, and its rate of fire is slightly better; the AK-47 is in "poor weapons" range while the M4 is in the "advanced" range. The extra firepower is not a large amount in comparison to the M4 and is not needed much as a single headshot from any weapon will kill any enemy in GTA IV; since the M4 is more accurate, it is better if the player aims for the head.

* '''GTA III '''([[2001]]): The GTA III version of the weapon is a Romanian made WASR-2 and is mostly accurate, but appears smaller than it should be. It's magazine also resembles that of an AK-74, Rather than an AK-47.

* '''GTA San Andreas''' ([[1992]]): The GTA San Andreas version of the weapon is a Chinese made Norinco Type 56, identified by its oval front sight. It also appears to have the three-vented handguard of the Serbian made Zastava M70, and an early slab sided magazine, lacking the grooves on either side. It is often used in [[Gang Warfare in GTA San Andreas|gang warfare]]. The model is of very low detail and, strangely enough, is significantly larger than it should be, being two-thirds as long as [[Carl Johnson]] is tall.

* '''GTA V''': Resembles a Norinco Type 56-2 with a TAPCO Intrafuse handguard. Weapon mods include an extended magazine (increasing ammunition capacity to 60 rounds), an angled foregrip (Magpul AFG2) that gives added stability and a slight increase in accuracy, a flashlight, a scope (Aimpoint Micro T1), a suppressor that silences the weapon but slightly reduces its damage and range, and various color tints.
