My opinion - "AK-47" should be given ONLY to NVA officers(well maybe some other classes too like specialist) becouse I don't feel inferiority at all while playing at the NVA side, the guns are too damn good. Give a rifleman PPSH-41/SKS and there will be a real choice - accuracy or firepower.
Right now almost nobody takes SKS becouse it's the same thing as AK but worse.
This is understandable but i think it's better to have a real dilemma between Standard and Alternative kits.
Right now it's great - if you want accuracy take AK74 if you want firepower take "AK47".
Great suggestion, but you forgot that the AK-47 was the icon of the Vietnam war. It would only make sense for rifleman to carry the AK-47. BTW, the PPSH is much more effective in PR than the AK-47 on almost all aspects. It wouldn't make much sense for the Officer to have a worse weapon.
I realize that the AK-74/AK-47 choice is great right now, but it's not realistic. It would make more sense if only the Taliban rifleman had access to it, as many were left behind following the Soviet-Afghan war, but it wouldn't make sense for AK-74 riles to be widespread across Iraq.
Compare how many AK47, AKM, and AK74 rifles were made (Wikipedia)
AK-47 - ≈ 75 million AK-47s
AKM - More than 10,278,300
AK-74 - 5,000,000 +
