🎯 1. АК-47 (Assault Rifle) — The Raid King

- Attachments: Silencer + Holo Sight
- Ammo: Explosive for raids / HV for PvP
- Magazine: Standard

⚙️ Use it for:

- Ammo: Standard or HV
- Sight: Iron or Holo

⚙️ Perfect for:

✅ Loadout:
- Sight: Iron
- Ammo: Standard
- No attachments (no slots)

⚙️ Best use:
