The AK-74 is an assault rifle designed to replace the AK-47 and AKM rifles in service with the Russian military. Chambered in the lighter 5.45x39mm, a cartridge introduced to replace the 7.62x39mm of the AK47/M rifles, the AK-74 was intended to be more controllable in fully-automatic fire and decrease the weight borne by infantry. Unlike the AKM in-game, it lacks adjustable ironsights meaning it can't be zeroed.
Like the AKM, the weapon is common and ammunition is plentiful. In DayZ the report of the AK-74 is quieter than that of the AKM.
