As for now I found absolutely no proof of the weapon in question even existing in real world (not only in Red Alert 3 videogame).
Weird technical specs are also listed, non consistent with how 7,62x54R round usually behave (for example - muzzle velocity is stated to be as high as 1200 m/sec, while it is only 865m/sec even in Mosin-Nagant M91/30 with its barrel lenght of 730mm --RussianTrooper (talk) 15:48, 24 October 2014 (UTC)


:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

:Relisting comment: This AfD nomination was malformed. I've formatted it properly and am relisting it.

  • Delete per WP:MADEUP. If we look at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ADK_Assault_Rifle&oldid=318825260 first version] of the page, it lists three guns: the [http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/Conscript_(Red_Alert_3) ADK-45], from Red Alert 3, the [http://counterstrike.wikia.com/wiki/AK-47 CV-47] from Counter-Strike, and the [http://syphonfilter.wikia.com/wiki/PK-102 PK-102], from Syphon Filter - all with made-up information mixing real-world settings and different video-game franchise universes (for example, the PK-102 description references Command & Conquer: Generals, which has nothing to do with Syphon Filter). In [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ADK_Assault_Rifle&diff=prev&oldid=381266549 this edit], an IP from the Philippines (why am I not surprised) replaced the content with a different completely made-up description of the ADK (which, I may have forgotten to mention, does not exist in real life beyond rumors, if even that). Neither version had sources; neither version has any useful, or even any real, information. ansh666 18:39, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Delete...for the reason stated above..this rifle exists only in video games--RAF910 (talk) 04:51, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Delete - per Ansh666. Such articles are the reason Wikipedia will never be taken seriously. Truly horrible. Anotherclown (talk) 08:49, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Delete. Ansh666 makes a compelling argument that this is a hoax. The article can always be recreated later if reliable sources are located to substantiate its existence. Right now, there doesn't seem to be any proof. Google results are extremely limited and seem to be Wikipedia mirrors. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:27, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
