AK47 Gun Papercraft
Kalashnikov started work on a submachine gun design in 1942[24] and with a light machine gun design in 1943] Early in 1944, Kalashnikov was given some 7.62×39mm M43 cartridges and was informed that there were other designers working on weapons for this new Soviet small-arms cartridge. It was suggested that a new weapon might well lead to greater things. He then undertook work on the new rifle] In 1944, he entered a design competition with this new 7.62×39mm, semi-automatic, gas-operated, long stroke piston carbine, strongly influenced by the American M1 Garand.[28] This new rifle was in the same class as the SKS-45 carbine, with a fixed magazine and a gas tube above the barrel. However, the new Kalashnikov design lost out to a Simonov design
