The AK-47 appears in Old School Mode with 30 rounds in the magazine and 60 rounds of reserve ammunition. This exclusivity is nullified in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, as all weapons can accept Gold Camouflage.

The AK-47 can accept Golden Camouflage once all of the Assault Rifle challenges are completed. In Hardcore, it kills in one hit against all enemies unless they are using Juggernaut (which can be negated with Stopping Power) or Last Stand, or those shot through cover, but loses this ability with a Suppressor or Red Dot Sight attached. The AK-47 is perhaps most versatile when used bare, with no attachments, as it leaves the player with a weapon that does not hamper itself or their class selection. While the ACOG doesn't cause this damage reduction, the increased zoom, ADS time, and recoil hamper much of the AK-47's close range effectiveness, and the increase in idle sway will also somewhat hamper its middle range effectiveness. This damage reduction also causes the gun to lose its one shot kill ability at range in hardcore. The GP-25 and the ACOG Scope are the two most suitable attachments to use as the Red Dot Sight and Suppressor both limit its effectiveness equipping either of the latter reduces minimum damage to 20, making it take five shots at range to kill in core and essentially making it a slower-firing M4 Carbine or G36C.

The AK-47 has the same amount of sway as the M4 Carbine and same sway speed as the G36C. Reload speed is at 2.5 seconds loaded or 3.25 unloaded, making it somewhat slower than the M4 Carbine or G36C, but not by much. The recoil is symmetrical so while the weapon bounces around somewhat while firing recoil tends to go straight up. The AK-47 has higher recoil than most of the other assault rifles, with a recoil pattern of 60 up, left, and right, and 30 down. The moderate rate of fire and the high damage per bullet gives the AK-47 among the fastest times to kill out of all the fully automatic assault rifles. In this case, head shots only help outside of effective range. Equipping Stopping Power reduces this to two-to-three shots. Head shots generally reduce the number of bullets needed to kill by one. The AK-47 deals 40-30 damage depending on range, killing targets in three-to-four shots. It is a high-damage, slow-firing assault rifle on par with the M16A4 and MP44. The AK-47 is one of the first assault rifles unlocked in multiplayer, being available as soon as Create-a-Class is unlocked. The AK-47 is one of the only weapons that is more accurate in multiplayer than it is in single player. The AK-47 Grenadier has a max ammo of 308 instead of 300. A variant of the AK-47, called the AK-47 Grenadier (a standard AK-47 with an underslung GP-25 grenade launcher), is also relatively common. The AK-47 is most effective at close to medium range. The AK-47's recoil is mostly visual, as the sights re-settle on the target between shots. It is far superior in terms of firepower and penetration when compared to most other rifles in the game, and it keeps an open field of view for spotting other nearby targets, although it suffers more in terms of recoil. It is never found with a red dot sight or silencer. The AK-47 is in single player and is the weapon most frequently used by the in-game enemies, such as Ultranationalists and OpFor militants.
