# 5 56 AK 47 - Guns For Sale

A 5.56 AK-47 combines the AK's gas-operated action and stamped steel receiver with the 5.56 NATO cartridge. Compared to the standard 7.62x39mm, the 5.56 round produces a flatter trajectory and less recoil, at the cost of heavier, purpose-built magazines. Manufacturers including Arsenal, Kalashnikov USA, and Century Arms produce 5.56 AK models with reinforced receivers and chrome-lined hammer-forged barrels. These rifles often include side mounts for optics, folding stocks, and standard AK ergonomics.
