Instantly recognizable by its banana-shaped ammunition magazine, the weapon, also known as the AK-47, was invented in 1947 -- AK being a Russian acronym for "Kalashnikov's machine gun," and 47 standing for the year it was invented.
The AK-47, along with its various modifications, has been recognized in the Guinness World Records book as being the world's most common machine gun. Licensed and unlicensed versions of the rifle are manufactured in several countries.
