Technically, the AK-74u is a rifle. Just a short barrel configuration of the 47. Shoots the same high powered rifle round. Also, a AK74u is heavier than most AR's. Since its shooting a rifle round, and has such as short barrel, the recoil should be alot more. Since the gun essentially has no barrel rise ( I think Black Ops take some affect to this ), the grip shouldnt affect the gun as greatly as it does. But I think they had fixed this already? I would just like to see the gun be heavier, there-fore, not be able to run so fast with it. And since it shoots a rifle round, have more recoil than most of its total opposited. Such as the MP5.
