Selective-fire assault rifle fed from a detachable magazine. Modernized version of classic KA-47 with lot of attachments available. Uses 7.62x39mm rounds. — In-game description
The KA-M is a highly sought after assault rifle in DayZ Standalone. A late-game, highly customizable, tier 4 assault rifle, the KA-M is chambered in 7.62x39mm Rounds.
Overview
The KA-M is to be considered an excellent all-around weapon due to its considerable power coupled with its capacity for longer range engagements using the PSO-1 scope. However, the KA-M suffers from extreme recoil which results in a serious loss of accuracy and difficulty in leading a target even at medium ranges if fired in bursts or the fully automatic mode. Therefore it is recommended to only use the KA-M's fully automatic mode at close range.
