The AK-74 is dominant at close to mid-range, making it the best sniper support in the game. Kills quicker than any SMG until 43 meters. It's a perfect gun to pair with the HDR.

The AK-74 has strong recoil and has been nerfed too many times. Once a skill rewarding gun, it now is just a difficult one.
