Thanks for the heads up, the author and artist have actually been doing a great job depicting realistic firearms, but I shouldn't expect anything made for entertainment to be perfect in that regard.

The rifle can be disassembled further, for cleaning, but can't be made any shorter (not without a hydraulic press).
On a side note I think your google searches were actually good, the AK 101 is
essentially just the name for an AK-47 that fires a specific bullet.
