u/Grumman is right, this is well below the acceptable tolerance level of any Sci-Fi.
I would even go so far as saying this is a worse decision than giving them:
I think my mind could fucking tolerate the levels of stupid in this decision if was an FS2000 because it really does look like a Sci-Fi weapon in it's original configuration. But if you're gonna use a dirty old AK, just say fuck it and give them a fucking M1 Garand. I want you to feel as stupid as they look.

Which are not things you could ever accuse Star Wars of having.
Adding spaceships and robots in space doesn't make something scientific. It's just reskinned skyships and golems on the ocean.
