The AK-112 assault rifle is a small gun in Fallout 2.

Background[]

This section is transcluded from assault rifle. To change it, please edit the transcluded page.

The AK-112 assault rifle[1] is a military assault rifle. The AK-112 was in service during the early 21st century but was replaced by more modern models. Chambered for the 5mm round, it utilizes a 24-round magazine. The AK-112 was eventually considered aged and was no longer in use prior to the Great War.[1]

Characteristics[]

The AK-112 is a decent weapon, with mid-ranged bursts of hollow-point rounds being able to slice through even combat armor. However, the AP rounds are not effective against anything above metal armor. With a range comparable to the Colt Rangemaster, and a very common ammunition type (except at the beginning of Fallout 2), the AK is an excellent complement to the CZ53 personal minigun and the Avenger minigun.

Variants[]

In Fallout 2, the AK-112 can be upgraded with an extended magazine, increasing the magazine capacity to 100 rounds.

Behind the scenes[]

The weapon was originally named the "Colt Rifle" in the beta version of Fallout, dealing dealing 7d6 or 7 to 42 damage; this put it on par with the 7.62x51mm FN FAL or G3 from GURPS High Tech, rather than the 5.56x45mm M16A1.[2]
