Loadout Description[]

AKM Update

AKM

A derivative of the AK47, the AKM is a powerful and reliable AR with a 30-round magazine.

  • Can be upgraded

ALT-FIRE: Toggle Sight

Overview[]

The AKM is an upgraded version of the AK-47 assault rifle, and fires the 7.62mm round. Highwire was reluctant to upgrade his old AK-47 rifle, but a bullet to the chest that nearly killed him quickly changed his mind.

Gameplay[]

The AKM is a good all-round rifle, and Highwire's default. It does good damage, goes through body-armour (it's ineffective against heavy armour and chitin however), and has a host of upgrades to make it more effective as well. AKM is not very accurate rifle initially, but with upgrades its accuracy becomes pretty good, especially if you crouch, use the holosight and fire in short controlled bursts. Reload time for the gun is short unless the magazine is completely emptied, in which case it takes slightly longer for the gun to be cocked as well. Keep this in mind when in large fire fights. This gun also has a GP-25 under-barrel grenade launcher that fires 40mm caseless grenades. The GL is activated by either going into the fire-mode menu or pressing the AKM's selection key again.
