I was recently in St. Petersburg, Russia and got to shoot an AK 74. Does anybody know what caliber it is? The range operator said it was not 5.56 but was 5.45 caliber. He was pretty insistent that it was not 5.56. The ammo we were shooting did not have the caliber on the case head. It was about the size of 223 ammo.
It was pretty neat getting to shoot a fully auto rifle in the city in a 200 meter indoor range. Of course full auto fire is not the way to hit your target, might scare it but unlikely to hit it. I also shot the 9mm Makarov pistol and was impressed with it. For an issue military pistol it was OK.
