sorry for my gramma ))) i have AK under bad )))))

[Eugenskill92]

@bigstabby, AK-47 doesn't need a commercial, thrust me

[w4yn6]

what's the music played in this video?

[RodyaZlo]

@w4yn6 Pyotr Ilyitch Tchaikovsky (or just Tchaikovsky) - Swan Lake /watch?v=1ea90L91eZk

[LooksLegitBro]

ak-47's do overheat, iv seen one catch on fire after someone ran two drum mags through it on full auto.

[TheBoyFromNorfolk]

@LooksLegitBro It's hand guards caught fire. But it was still firing wasn't it.

[LooksLegitBro]

@TheBoyFromNorfolk yes it was, but the point is that the ak can and will overheat if fired for prolonged amounts of time.

[RodyaZlo]

@LooksLegitBro it wast plastic pivot, not whole "Kalash" (obviously). And it happened because of very long fire time. Nobody fires like that from assault rifle. If I recall correctly, 1 drum mag holds 75 rounds. If you need to fire that long - just use RPK (Ruchnoy Pulemyot Kalashnikova, Russian: Ручной пулемёт Калашникова or "Kalashnikov hand-held machine gun") or some other machine gun. Sorry for bad English.

[TIKIMAN198]

@LooksLegitBro You didn't see shit you little bitch.

[LooksLegitBro]

@TIKIMAN198 ok, just because your ak47 never overheats in call of duty you think you know what your talking about? run along kiddie.

[peri5552]

@foreverLonghorns It is from Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake Ballet. Link: youtube.com/watch?v=1ea90L91eZ­k

[SonOfAWhisker]

Actually the most popular firearm in the world is the AKM, an improvement of the AK-47

[bamarine247]

@SonOfAWhisker What's the difference between an AK47 and an AKM. Aren't they the same basic design?

[SonOfAWhisker]

@bamarine247 They are very similar, the only big difference being the AKM has a stamped receiver and an AK-47 has a milled receiver

[Keichwoud357]

@bamarine247 Wikipedia - Improvements over AK-47.

[StopFlaggingVideos]

can someone explain why the AK-47 is so simple yet so versatile and reliable?

[BRaev]

@StopFlaggingVideos The more complex something is, the easier it will be to break. Also, as I personally own one myself, there is a lot of open space on the inside. The means a lot of room for the parts to move, or a lot of room for to accommodate for error. More tightly constructed firearms, like the AR-15 and derivatives, are simply easier to fowl because the mechanisms are not as tolerant to being slightly off.

[StopFlaggingVideos]

@BRaev thank you, logic follows that a simpler design allows less errors

[789films]

@StopFlaggingVideos You answered your own question its a simple design easy to change parts you could field strip an AK in the dark it simply is the ultimate battle rifle

[woojtzorek]

The song is Swanlake by Piotr Czajkowski.

[Kapov]

True gun porn

[zbagby02]

best part of the movie, long live the angel king!

[foreverLonghorns]

what is the song playing in the background?

[bloodisonthewall666]

The funny thing is that the AK-47 had a rival called the M-16:the M-16 lacked power but has accuracy and the AK-47 has power but lacks accuracy and then the soviet union invented the AK-104 which changed the whole story

[HongKongKing666]

And aims like shit....

[Razgriz259]

chuck norris'  gun of choice

[edinscot56789]

This scene was shot like a commercial, according to the director's commentary. It is a lot like a commercial.

[amongsttrees]

You know, the AK-47 is the real weapon of mass destruction...

[SantaBantaVEVO]

@amongsttrees lines from this movie

[Theburn77]

"No one's lining up to buy their cars" lol

[BlueKewne]

.....oh my god I just reconized the background music. It's freaking Dracula. (The classic one with Bela Lugosi)

[wtg2989]

....And that's why I bought one.

[MrJugoG4life]

top 10 stuff: 1- Food 2- Music 3- cars 4- AK-47 5- Chicks 6- TV 7- Games 8- Space Squirls 9- Toilet 10- 2pac

[krazywabbits]

@MrJugoG4life I like your list of top 10 stuff. LOL.

[kylehall44]

"It doesnt break, jam, or overheat. It will shoot whether it's covered in mud, or filled with sand, even a child could use it."

As sad and sickening as this sounds, its 100% true, the AK-47 is a fine firearm

[ballisstix]

@kylehall44 How is it sad or sickening? It's awesome. Just because something isn't made in the west doesn't make it hard to accept when it's just better.

[kylehall44]

@ballisstix uh are u soft? i said its a fine firearm

[ballisstix]

@kylehall44 The west-bot I responded to said it was sad and sickening first.

[Significantpower]

@ballisstix I think it was the fact that children can (and do) use it.

[Humberto4790]

@kylehall44 It's 90 percent true. Ak 47's can over heat. If you shoot lots of rounds through it you can see smoke coming out fo thr barrel,and it will be super hot.

[wowzinger]

@Humberto4790 yes but thats not over heating, over heating happens when the gun get to hot it can shoot anymore, the ak47 doesnt do that, of corse it will get hot, hundreds of little explosions are happening inside it

[wowzinger]

@kylehall44 the new and yet again still russian aa12 is just as good lol its an automatic shot gun

[Reynard13Fuchs]

@wowzinger The AA12 is American. The Saiga 12 is Russian.

Don't believe me? Look it up. Google and Wikipedia are your friend.

[wowzinger]

@Reynard13Fuchs no no i believe you i just got mixed up, dont get made yo

[Reynard13Fuchs]

@wowzinger Mad? Nah, I'm just a sarcastic smart arse that can sound snarky.

On a side note, I like the USAS12 over the AA12, both are essentially the same shotgun. It's a few grams heavier but shorter than the AA12.

[bloodisonthewall666]

@Reynard13Fuchs Yeah, the USAS12 was supposed to be a more "Officiant" version of the AA12, But i think the they messed around with it to much and made it a little less Officiant version of the AA12 anyway the USAS12 was supposed to be more accurate

[Reynard13Fuchs]

@bloodisonthewall666 (efficient is what I think you meant to say) The USAS12 was put into production before the AA12, it was a developmental offshoot of Maxwell Atchisson's design though.

[bloodisonthewall666]

@Reynard13Fuchs i was meant to say the"the AA12 was supposed to be a more"

[MegaWestbro]

@kylehall44 ur all most right it would be better if the dame bolt(slider) was just raised a bit higher

[fredsucksbutt124]

@kylehall44 this

[bigstabby]

Out of context, this looks like Nicolas Cage did a commercial for the AK with the cinematographer for the Zales diamond commercials.lol

[reignofcows]

Tchaikovsky's music really fits this gun.

[madmazel78]

Its a fucking copy from a german weapon !!!

[bigstabby]

@madmazel78 Yeah, and the STG-44 is essentially a copy of the Italian Cei-Rigotti, and even that wasn't the first piston operated, semi-automatic rifle. It's a baseless arguement, because the base is essentially buried in too much firearm history to even track. The truth is, the AK did it the best and took over. That's what matters.

[madmazel78]

@bigstabby ha! thank you ;D

[thegoosebrain]

One thing he didn't mention in his narration ....."and it's a copy of the WW2 German Assault Rifle".

[Ytown08]

@thegoosebrain no it is not, even thought they look the same they operate quite differently...do you even own an AK? I've seen the MP/STG44 at a gunshow years back, and it had many differences than my AK...definitely not the same rifle.

[thegoosebrain]

@Ytown08 I saw a show on the history channel where they talked about the AK47 and had an interview with the guy that designed it. HE even said he "borrowed" many of the features from the German gun. Came straight from HIS mouth. I think I'll believe him. Sorry. Even many of the American machine guns have "borrowed" German technology from WW2. Just because you shoot guns doesn't make you an expert, Oswald.

[sergeikozin47]

@thegoosebrain we all borrowed from others, americans also get the idea of assault rifle after they see the ak47...

[SPARTAN1T]

@sergeikozin47 all the Ak-47 is a copied version of the German StG 44

[sergeikozin47]

@SPARTAN1T there is no proof that the AK47 is a copy of STG44, both firearms have VERY DIFFERENT MECHANISM. although they're both have the same appearance, but still AK47 is not a copy of the german assault rifle. SKS and AK have some same looks because Mr. Kalashnikov was inspired by the SKS semi-auto rifle may by Mr. Simonov.

[Zeta439]

When I grow older, I want to be a Lord of War

[NewTalentProduction]

12 people like Justin Bieber

[MrSystematica]

they make that weapon look beautiful

[altairx26]

WORD OF THE LOURD!

[TheCoolProfessor]

I never thought anyone could make an AK47 so...poetic!

[davedavedaveannoy1]

Yeah, kalashnikovs overheat often, and depending on how much you oil the grip it becomes so hot the lubricant will seep and steam out onto your hands. What he should have said was "Never breaks, jams, or malfunctions due to heat" the gun is protected from the heat, the user is not so fortunate.

[Hammondo2R]

whats the sound track name

[GeneralXT]

@Hammondo2R the Swanlake theme

[Hammondo2R]

@GeneralXT thanks

[shinra46]

"It doesn't break, jam, or overheat"

When he said this i smiled. The reason is obvious.

[keyinnick]

@shinra46 Yeah, because it does overheat, often too.

[shinra46]

@keyinnick Oft hilariously, such as having the handguard burst into flames.

[Sorvos]

All philosephers are angry at the AK. Why? Because it shaped the world like none of them ever managed to do.

[kz001ast]

In fact it is a german Stg 44.Thanks to 3-rd reich for all weapons and technologies taht was stolen by ussr and us after their defeat.

[spacetales]

@kz001ast yea and todays NASA is the product of Werner von Brauns genius aswell. lol

So Hitler was right, the germans ARE the uberhuman haha

[kz001ast]

@spacetales About NASA technologies, FAU-2 heard about them?So read.And about superhuman it's just his own sexual fantasy.Germans are very smart.

[spacetales]

@kz001ast :) thanks my friend. yea i know the FAU-2. Germans are exceptionally skilled when it comes to engineering. Every thing they build out of metal and steel is a damn miracle. The US just knows how to make jets, but only because they have stolen the knowledge of the germans aswell.

[Swertzer]

@kz001ast

Nope,you are wrong there,research a bit MOOOOORE,and you ll see that you are wrong...Trust me,I know...

Stg 44. is much more complex rifle,maybe they look almost the same,but they are 85% different from one another.

[gethsoftware]

@kz001ast winner gets the spoils.

[Skiergold]

These days, you throw a stick in the air, chances are it's gonna land on a goddamn crate of the things

damn, i got a boner...

[keyinnick]

Nicholas Cage sounds like that gun-obsessed otaku from High School of the Dead.

[marcscalera]

yep....

[carolinebielby]

Nic Cage is amazing in this movie. he really knows how to tell a story and still be a BA . he is such a boss too in his new film "Trespass" ! he really steals the show for sure. he plays a suit, but that doesnt stop him from bringing out the big guns when he has to. bitly. com/o7TwhG

[ShutUpFoolStudios]

Ok tell me something I dont know cage....

[Ghalamir]

Anyone knows the background music in this scene?

[Falloutcookingshow]

@Ghalamir the Swanlake

[jlmdfnbo]

"Even children can use it, and they do " :D priceless

[greztovar]

@jlmdfnbo it's swanlake ballet!

[cjcool91]

Is that the Dracula theme?

[manxdude1]

it is ironic,i think it was in making of it,but all tanks,guns everything from got guy like he plays arms dealer! crazy world hey,but great film as this how wars happen,or start at least!

[blackheartsbirth]

I bought mine!

[ChicagoProdigy]

You can by AK-47s (probably cheaper European copies) from gangbangers in Chicago for 400 dollars. I wonder why.

[nicolas1990ist]

one of the best movies ever produced, very nice scenes and songs that relate to scenes, great moral.. very sad however that it didn't take the noise it should had.

thumbs up if u think this movie is one of the best in this century

[Kayserians]

11 people are snipercampers !!

[megatron515]

Wow hollywood has even found a way to pervert the AK platform.

0:22 It's stamped or milled steel

0:24 Incorrect, firing pins break, stove pipe jams occur, and Krinks overheat

0:30 Wrong, no weapon can fire "filled" with sand.

[EntropicMisanthropic]

@megatron515 Don't be an idiot. He means generically speaking, and not a word of that monologue is untrue.

And he didn't say the AKSU-74 (aka the Krinkov), did he? He said the AK-47, and I have seen them continue to fire after having sand repeatedly worked into the action. This is due to their ridiculously loose tolerances. Shake an AK and it sounds like a coffee can full of bolts. That's the fucking point.

Don't try to be a smart-ass, because you're clearly no expert.

[megatron515]

@EntropicMisanthropic There is no "generically speaking" because there is no "generic AK." Are you talking about Tantals? Yugo M70's? Saigas or WASR 10's? Because WASRs or any Century gun will jam without sand! I know, I had one and it wasn't built to spec so I had to file down the feed ramp! My arsenal has absolutely no problems, but it, and any other weapon won't shoot if it's "filled" with sand. Even if it has loose clearances, not tolerances. And I shake any of my guns and they don't 

[aadeebindy]

@megatron515 man that entropicMisanthropic guy is kind of a dick

[megatron515]

@aadeebindy Yeah... and ignorant..

[megatron515]

@EntropicMisanthropic sound like "a coffee can full of bolts." That's complete bullshit, and seriously makes me wonder if you own an AK. I'm not an expert, but I know the difference between bolt-receiver clearance and engineering tolerance to deviation, which have nothing to do with each other. It's a machine, it will break. If you don't believe me, go join akfiles.com and post a link to this vid and tell the guys you think it's true. They'll laugh in your face and maybe you can start to learn.

[EntropicMisanthropic]

@megatron515 No shit you're not an expert. You're also not an owner.

You talk so much shit it's unbelievable, yet you impress nobody but fellow Internet fucking liars like yourself. None of what you say in either of those posts has anything to do with anything else. It is literally the rantings of a pre-pubescent Internet troll.

Nice completely blank profile. Nice total refusal to list your akfiles username so I can verify your claims.

Please, seriously, just go fuck yourself and go away.

[EntropicMisanthropic]

Oh, and since it's not obvious, anybody who says there is no such thing as a generic AK platform is a fucking moron.

If you're such an expert, how come you can't fluff your Century SAR into being jam-free?

OH, that's right. You're a fat internet troll that lives with his mom and parrots what he reads on bulletin boards.

Consider suicide. Nobody cares about you.

[megatron515]

@EntropicMisanthropic Lol.. really. Well that pretty much proves to me that you have no idea what you're talking about, don't own an AK, and can't make a logical response to the facts I've listed that doesn't contain anything other than insults, vulgarisms, and "you're a troll." Have fun spending the rest of your life being the dumbest guy in the room with the biggest mouth. My sole piece of advice for you- Don't open your mouth about things you don't know about in the real world. Do it here.

[BloodyWolf23]

The song is Swan Lake - Scene by Tchaikovsky.

[Xeno056]

@BloodyWolf23 Thank you very much.

[PP7Silenced]

This movie would have just been another cage movie if it wasnt for this AK commercial in the middle of it.

[ScrawnyNoMore]

its almost as if there is a romanticism with this assault rifle

[Davizitoh]

@ScrawnyNoMore that scene is like hardcore porn to me.

Oh go on Matt there's loads.

And that my friends is how Mikhail Kalashnikov pwned Eugene Stoner. Although I think I'll hang on to my AR-15. I only have this question. Why the fuck is Heckler and Koch so damn expensive? I have to win the lottery just to get a G36C.

[anant14]

@Destroyer4292 ,

Soviets made the cheap and best things those days : Mig 21 (most sold fighter), AK 47, T-72s (most sold tanks), SAM ( cheaper cousin of Stingers), IL 76 (most widely used tactical airlifter).....even cheaper nuclear submarines.....even now look at the cost of Su 30s......

They combined best of "Western innovation" with Chinese "prices/manufacturing"........­.in those days.....with obvious tradeoffs ofcourse.....

[anant14]

@Destroyer4292 ,

But the fact is they caused a lot a lot of damage to the world from their cheap, and readily available military equipment ! Even now anyone with money can buy a Su 30 fighter.....from Russia......one cannot buy a Eurofighter or a F-16 so easily !

[gethsoftware]

@xioxio12345 nope. war is controled and has something to gain. nukes are just weapons of revenge and fear. when they are used the war is over. when ak comes in, the war has just begun. nukes sit in their silos, ak has killed more humans then anyother weapon in history of man.

[Cipirano]

AK from STG-44...

[Destroyer4292]

@Cipirano The SturmGewher's design also inspired the MP5.

[charlieisgone]

where can I get one?

[1337soldiahs]

@charlieisgone

Depends, where do you live?

[charlieisgone]

@1337soldiahs USA

[1337soldiahs]

@charlieisgone

Still too generic, as gun laws can change a lot between states. So, what state?

[charlieisgone]

@1337soldiahs California baby

[1337soldiahs]

@charlieisgone

Shit, sorry man, you're fucked. It's banned there because it looks scary. No kidding.

But the black market is always your friend, hide it in the basement or something.

[panzerman22]

Whats most people don't know is most ak rifles are of Chinease production the Type56!

[MrTurkeybird09]

They may not OVERheat but the hot barrel will peel your skin off

[danthehitman741]

@MrTurkeybird09 Or burn a big hole in the seat of your wifes car while your reloading the clip as i did..sadly she wont let me use her car anymore for anything i wonder why:) AK POWER

[MrTurkeybird09]

@danthehitman741 lol yeah mine blistered my upper arm when I slung it on my shoulder I think that's the only flaw a barrel that gets way to hot way to fast

[SerWatchman]

even a child can use it... and they do... the reason why its called infantry

[Vons4ndw1ch]

@SerWatchman hahah good one

[Aaidas2]

The funny thing is, that the production team bought 3000 real ak's instead of prop ones because it was cheaper and the 50 T72's shown in the movie were, ironicaly, sold to Liberia.

[Aaidas2]

@wowzadj wikipedia :P

[MasterTaters]

@Aaidas2 They actually rented 3000 vz 58 rifles, check imfdb

[xxxrrrxxxrrr]

@Aaidas2 What, really:D You have any sources for that? (Liberia thing)

[Aaidas2]

@xxxrrrxxxrrr It's in the movie extras and wikipedia.

[QBJ88]

@Aaidas2 They were actually VZ.58 rifles. Just saying.

[Amstaf777]

@Aaidas2 not to liberia. to lybia

[PetePhamous]

@Aaidas2

WRONG. the stockpile showed vz58. you can tell by the stocks. the t72 shown were probably real, yes.

[MrHongKongBuffet]

@PetePhamous

Yep! I didn't notice the first time, but once you know, they're clearly Czech Vz. 58s. About 99% of the AKs used by Russians in any given film are "wrong." Usually they're Egyptian Maadis, Chinese Norincos, or not even AKs at all. The filmmakers usually get the model wrong too. In movies, I've seen 47s in the hands of modern Russians, AKMs in the 1950s Red Army, and 74s are a rarity in just about any American-produced film, even if they should be standard-issue.

[forthefatherland699]

@MrHongKongBuffet I dont know if youre talking about this movie still but the Weapon hes holding and the "AK 47s " in this film are not Vz 58s

[MrHongKongBuffet]

@forthefatherland699

The gun in Yuri's hands is a milled receiver AK-47. It was totally obsolete in the USSR in 1991. The most common AKs in the movie are Norinco Type 56 variants, a Chinese AK similar to the AKM. There is also an oddball assortment of various AKMs, AKMSs, and milled receiver AKs of unknown origin. In the scene just prior to this one where Yuri and his Uncle walk along racks of "AKs" these are actually Vz58s - look closely at the stock.

Source: Imfdb.com

[Axmedkoole]

@Aaidas2 Where is your source?

[Aaidas2]

@Axmedkoole In the movie extras, can see it in wikipedia aswell.

[ITguy82]

@Aaidas2 true or not thats hysterical



[ITguy82]

@ITguy82 and sad at the same time

[burningsponge]

@Aaidas2 but to even cheapen down the price, those arent even ak's, they're really SA Vz.58 Assault Rifles.

[binbashLinuxAhole]

@Aaidas2 *correction Libya

[Try0again0bragg]

@Aaidas2 Its no wonder really. Have you ever read the book "A Long Way Gone" Its an autobiography of a child solder during the Sierra Lione civil war. In it he describes the cost of the weapons they used. An AK 47 with full 30 round clip cost 15 USD, and an rpg 7 and 3 rounds for it cost 600 USD. Given that cost it isn't surprising at all.

[MissyMarieN]

@Aaidas2 actually, they were rented from an actual arms dealer. And they're not AK's atleast not the stockpiled weapons you see in the bunkers. They're SA vz.58 Assault Rifles.

@Aaidas2 Lord of war was filmed in czech republic too, and they used for filming AK´s, as you wrote. But for exmaple guns are in store were czech vz.58s, total
