LARPfag here. The StG77 is the only rifle I know, but I can't believe you can ask for more.

Muzzle velocity is 970m/s -- no imagination or mental acrobatics required for targets closer than a hundred yards. Aim a palm or so higher for each extra hundred yards. The rifle is mostly made of plastic and absolutely no burden, not even on 30 ml walks. Careful cleaning is a requirement for automatic action, though, especially for and after using blinds.
How does that compare to U.S. army rifles? Or a Kalashnikov? A problem for guerilleros might be that all parts are machine-tooled, so you need special equipment for making spares.
The AR is usually made in CNC machines and lathes. It's a bit more complicated than what your friend says but oh so easy to maintain and take care of later.
Fun facts, the AR has a safety detent in the lower that is the size of a grain or long rice.
Pretty much for home built guns 3d printing is the next frontier. Lots of cool stuff on there.
Sorry, I confused or misread "AR" as "AK" what I thought is a word for "Kalashnikov", but perhaps isn't, but the friend was talking about the Kalashnikov.
With "AR" you did not mean an "Armalite Rifle", did you?
I did mean armalite. As in the AR15. AR=AR15 AK=AK47 and it's many cousins.
k, thanks.
Btw, I read the sidebar for the first time. As another Austrian said: "I'll be back."
