SR-47

The SR-47 is a modern assault rifle based on the ArmaLite family of rifles created by Knight's Armament for the USSOCOM. Unlike the majority of guns based around ArmaLite design, the SR-47 fires the Soviet 7.62x39 round from AK-47 magazines. The gun was created after soldiers on long missions in Operation Enduring Freedom complained of running out of 5.56 x 45 mm ammo or their M4's but having plenty of captured AK-47 magazines. The SR-47 is basically an M4 that will accept standard AK-47 magazines rather than NATO M16/M4 mags.
