Stencil
Neo-Nazi Misha (Uncredited) makes a stencil with a generic AK-style rifle.
Type I AK-47, hybrid stamped/milled receiver with prototype slab sided magazine - 7.62x39mm. While it was intended for the AK to use all stamped parts for cost reasons, the Soviet metalworking industry was simply not ready to do this at the time, and the high rejection rate of the early stamped AK receivers led to a switch to milling that lasted until the introduction of the AKM.
Movie scene
During a scene from an unknown animated movie seen on the TV, futuristic machine guns can be seen mounted on tanks.
