That's cool! The AK is considered an assault rifle. Sub-machine guns use pistol calibre ammunition. The ammunition for the AK is M43 (1953) 7.62x39mm but the AK47 firing the M43 began manufacture in 1947. The Chinese variant is from 1956. I think the M43 round is also used in the earlier SKS rifles too.
I wonder if Vietnam used chinese AKs in 1979?

Sorry for my delay, I am studying military and I have less time to read the messages, but I am glad you have commented below my post.
AK rifles were manufactured by the Soviet Union in 1947.
In the battle between Vietnam and China 1979, Vietnam mainly used AK submachine guns, this is a weapon for each Vietnamese soldier. This is the main gun used, so I'm currently learning how to use this gun.
