Weapon Blueprint Adjustment

We changed the blueprint for the AK47 – Showdown back to its original settings.

Following the initial release of the Showdown series blueprint, some designs were lost. This issue was addressed in a subsequent update. After thorough deliberation, we have opted to revert this change to enhance the player experience. We value the input from our warriors and will strive to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Please keep an eye out and share more suggestions!
