The German STG was the worlds first true assault rifle. So i guess any assault weapon designed afterwards is pretty much copied off of it.

Difference being the AK wasnt worthy of its designer until it was tested through hell and high water. If todays engineers took that much effort into building a design. The AR might actually stand a "reliable" chance.
