|quotetext=Though the [[AK-74]] was very successful as and the second generation of Kalashnikov-pattern rifleswere successful, everyone wondered what was next for the legendary family of rifles. Enter the AK-100 series, the third generation in the AK line, of which the AK-101 can be thought of as the flagship model. The wood furniture is gone, replaced by more durable polymer, and the stock is now a folding stock, available as a standard feature in all AK-100 series rifles. But the most important change is the caliber; the AK-101 is the first Kalashnikov-pattern rifle to be chambered in 5.56 NATO.
