This is like saying 'the M-16 is dead, now we have the M-4'. Well, not really, since the M-4 is merely an evolution of the M-16. Likewise the AK-12 is merely the latest evolution of the AK-47.

The 47 is very different

Hmmm...
I'm probably wrong, but the AK-47 is a beast killer whereas the AK-12 sounds more like a rabbit killer...

I was watching something yesterday, and they made the argument that the changes between the M-16 and M-4 were significant enough that the M-4 could be considered a new and completely different rifle. That same argument could be made with the AK-12. Not sure I agree with the idea; it was an interesting take though.
