The AK-2130 (shortened from Russian: Автомат Калашникова образца 1947 года, or "Avtomat Kalashnikova model 1947"), is an assault rifle originally designed by Mikail Kalashnikov which was then improved by Elijah Yelstosky, the Grand General of the Armed Forces of Stoklomolvi. It entered service in Stoklomolvi in 2002 C.E., and soon went into export to other countries. It uses an advanced gas-operated reloading system, and this system allows the AK-2130 to fire at a minimal rate of 950 rounds per minute.
