An automatic or semi-automatic rifle, typically an AK-47 or AK-pattern weapon. The name comes from the chopping sound of rapid fire — and from the way the gun 'chops' through whatever's in front of it. A Southern hip-hop staple from New Orleans to Atlanta to Memphis, used in everything from threats to brags about being strapped.
