AK47 (AKM): Mud Test
This InRangeTV AKM mud test reveals that while the AK platform is robust, its legendary mud reliability is somewhat exaggerated. The Romanian AKM, chambered in 7.62x39mm, failed to cycle reliably when heavily caked in mud, requiring manual intervention to operate. Despite not achieving perfect reliability, it performed better than some historical counterparts like the M1 Garand.
