The '''AK-47''' is the signature Terrorist rifle and one of the most iconic weapons in FPS history. It is the only rifle that can one-shot headshot a helmeted enemy.

== Overview ==
The AK-47 is the standard rifle for Terrorists in competitive play. Priced at $2,700, it is the cheapest rifle capable of killing a fully armored opponent with a single headshot. This makes it a high-value purchase and the default choice on full-buy rounds. Its combination of power, versatility, and affordability cements its position as one of the best weapons in the game.
The AK-47 is a fully automatic assault rifle dealing 36 base damage. Its defining characteristic is the ability to kill with a single headshot against helmeted opponents, making it the most lethal rifle in the game for skilled aimers.


The weapon excels at medium range, where its first-shot accuracy can be leveraged effectively. However, its recoil pattern is more aggressive than its CT counterparts (the [[M4A4]] and [[M4A1-S]]), demanding strong [[Spray Patterns and Recoil Control|spray control]] from the user.
== Spray Pattern ==
The AK-47's spray pattern pulls sharply upward for the first 10 bullets, then sways left and right. Mastering this pattern is essential for competitive play.

== Usage Tips ==
[[Category:Rifles]]
* The AK-47 can one-shot headshot helmeted opponents, making it one of the most lethal weapons in the game at any range.
* Master the first 10 bullets of the [[Spray Patterns and Recoil Control|spray pattern]] — the initial pull-down is crucial for consistent kills.
* Burst firing (2-3 shots) is effective at long range where full sprays become inaccurate.
* Counter-strafing is essential when using the AK-47 to ensure first-shot accuracy. See [[Movement Mechanics]] for more details.
* On [[Economy System|eco rounds]], picking up a dropped AK-47 as a CT is extremely valuable since CTs do not have access to a rifle with one-shot headshot capability at its price range.
* The AK-47 rewards $300 per kill, making it the standard kill reward for rifles.
 
== Competitive Meta ==
In professional play, the AK-47 is the default T-side rifle. Players typically purchase the AK-47 on every full-buy round. Its one-tap potential makes it deadly in the hands of skilled aimers, and its spray pattern, while challenging, is one of the most studied and practiced in the game.
 
The AK-47 is also one of the most sought-after weapons on CT side when dropped by eliminated Terrorists, as it offers superior damage output compared to the [[M4A4]] and [[M4A1-S]].
