How far the ak47 bullet can travel?

The effective range of an AK-47 bullet, specifically the 7.62x39mm cartridge, is typically around 300 to 400 meters for accurate shooting. However, the bullet can travel much farther, with maximum ranges reported up to 2,000 meters under optimal conditions. Factors such as terrain, weather, and the shooter's skill can influence the actual distance a bullet may travel. It's important to note that while a bullet can travel great distances, its lethality and accuracy decrease significantly beyond its effective range.

How long does it take to die from gunshot wound?

Need more information, like:

1- Where on the body did the bullet hit?

2- What was the bullet's trajectory?

3- What caliber was the bullet?

A shot to the head in which both hemispheres of the brain are damaged will probably be fatal, eventually. If the brainstem is intact, heart & breathing can continue for quite a while. If the brainstem is damaged, heart rate & breathing will likely stop. Cells in the body will begin dying within minutes.

A shot to the heart/aorta/pulmonary artery could take a few minutes to lose consciousness. Several more minutes to exsanguinate (bleed out).

A wound to the arm or leg that misses a major artery may not be fatal. Infection could kill several weeks after the gunshot.
