Quit putting the ak47 as inspired by the stg

The only similarities between the Ak and stg are the same across all assualt rifles (intermediate cartridge, select fire things of that nature) most of the ak74s internals more closely relate to the m1 garand

A blog is an invalid source. --Denniss (talk) 14:32, 25 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

It's going over the design similarities between the rifles, the Ak shares nothing with the stg that all assualt rifles wouldn't share so it's redundant and misleading to include the AK specifically Elongatedgoose7 (talk) 20:32, 25 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Also a similar blog is used to compare the 2 on the ak74 page it's just misleading at best Elongatedgoose7 (talk) 20:38, 25 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
