As for it's caliber i cannot remember if this is stated anywhere in canon, but the Chinese, presumably, would chamber their weapons to use the ammunition of the country they seek to occupy. That said, here's the inspiration: Oddly enough, also designated Type 56. I don't think it's the Type 56 in particular, the Chinese have a history of copying Russian weapons and i think Bethesda wanted to portray as much, BUT they also seemed to make an effort not to portray too many modern real world weapons to keep with the alternate timeline. That's still odd though because of the fact that the actual Type 56 doesn't fire the 5.56mm round, but Bethesda probably did this for their own reasons. I think the assault rifle Bethesda is trying to depict in this game is the Chinese Type 56, which is a copy of the AK-47. It is worth mentioning the AK-112 here, because it's the only other 'AK-ish' Fallout weapon. That said, there's nothing wrong with tips on how to use the weapon most effectively in-game, so I'll see about drafting some replacement text.If nobody likes it, we can always revert.

With a tripod-mounted gun, you might be able to 'walk the fire' back to the target, but with handheld or bipod-mounted guns, armed forces train their personnel to keep the burst short to avoid muzzle climb pulling the gun off-target.

Also, mention of use in DC area happens twice in first two paragraphs, one needs to be trimmed, but I don't like deleting other's stuff.

'Kalashnikov's automatic rifle'), implying that the 112 is a development of the original design (unless it was designed by someone whose last name also started with K). AK stands for 'Avtomat Kalashnikova' (lit. I'm speculating to some extent here, but the connection between the AK-112 and the 'Chinese Assault Rifle' is that both are based on the same operating mechanism as the original AK-47 (and all its descendants): gas-operated with rotating bolt locking system. What is a purpose of AK-112 mention, if 'Chinese Assault Rifle' is Kalashnikov-shaped?.For 'chinese assault rifle' see wikipedia:Type 81 assault rifle (older and newer are diffrent from standard Kalashnikov shape).

Do we know anything about AK-112 origin? 'AK' associations or something more?.
