The AK-47 is probably the most iconic weapon in Counter-Strike. It’s a formidable force in the hands of anyone who knows how to control it, easily one-tapping enemies with headshots regardless of their armor. Here’s a complete guide where we dive into the AK-47 spray pattern.
AK-47 Spray Pattern Tutorial
The first 9 to 10 bullets go up, with the first 4 or 5 going straight and the last 4 to 5 curving slightly to the left.
After the 10th bullet, there is almost no vertical movement, and the spray moves toward the right for 4 to 5 bullets.
Finally, the bullets move to the left once and then to the right one time again, completing the spray pattern.
AK-47 Recoil Control Technique
To control the recoil of the AK-47, move the crosshair in a path that’s the exact opposite of the spray pattern. Start by pulling the crosshair down and slightly to the right at the end. Make sure to pull more than other weapons since the AK-47 recoil hits harder.
After that, move the crosshair toward the left in a straight line with almost zero vertical movement. Finally, move the crosshair to the right once and then one time again toward the left till the magazine ends.
Conclusion
There you have it, folks. You now have a much better understanding of what the AK-47 spray pattern looks like and are in a much better position to control its recoil. Hop in a private match, buy the AK-47, head over to a blank wall, and practice the AK-47 recoil pattern until you can get the spray to land in the smallest area possible.
