Talk:AK-101
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The AN-94 is replacing the AK-74, not the Ak-101
[edit] Article overhaul
I just overhauled the article to get rid of the false information, compare the histories for more details.

Who changed it to say the AK-101 is the standard issue assault rifle of the Russian Federation armed forces. That is not true, it is the AK-74M that is the standard issue assault rifle.--24.247.177.163 06:28, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] AK-101 as Russian Main Assault Rifle
according to Ak-47.net the AK-101 is the intended replacement of the AK-74M. this can also be confirmed by RUSARM.ru
The AN-94 isnt replacing anything yet, not enough money to produce it in large numbers.,

Money isn't the only issue, there's also the fact that there are some draw backs with the AN-94 design and it's not that much more of an improvement over the AK-74M. If the AN-94's problems were worked out and it was felt that it was a much greater improvement it would be fully adopted, Russia has plenty of money to spend, but they are very reserved on what they spend it on. --Skyler Streng 22:15, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] STANAG
Can the AK-101 use STANAG magazines? If so, should it be mentioned in the article? CeeWhy2 01:51, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
