History[]
The AK-M is an updated version of the venerable AK-47 rifle, and was produced in 1959 by Russian arms manufacturer Izhmash. It was designed for both improved performance and lower production costs, featuring a stamped metal receiver, improved gas tube, and lighter materials. The weapon remained in service with the Soviet Army until 1974, when it was replaced by the AK-74.
Tom Clancy's The Division 2's AK-M variants are amalgams of various Kalasnikov models: the game's AK-M sports the front sight and gas block of an original AK-47, and the Military AK-M's model is actually an AK-74 with an AK-M gas block and missing its signature muzzle brake.
Usage[]
The AK-M and its variants are the most powerful Assault Rifles in Tom Clancy's The Division 2, tempered by intense recoil and a slow fire rate that make it difficult to consistently hit enemies leaning out of cover, let alone moving targets or finicky weak points. Its accuracy continually degrades with sustained fire, forcing agents to periodically pause and reset their aim; at the edge of the weapon's effective range, single shots may be necessary to hit anything at all.
Similar to a Light Machine Gun, the AK-M is most effective against exposed targets, where its imprecision matters less and its high damage can stagger enemies for the brief few moments the weapon needs to finish the job. Grenades or Skills like the Seeker Mine or Oxidizer Chem Launcher can help flush enemies into the open, where they will quickly fold under the AK-M's withering fire.
