Who wins after patch 1.41.1.6: AK-47 or the M4s?

It depends on the size of the change: check whether the AK/M4A4/M4A1-S appear in the diff, then re-run the TTK calculator at your engagement range and armor assumptions. One-tap head thresholds against helmets move the meta most.

How do I tell if a weapon got buffed or nerfed?

In the diff table, raised damage/fire rate/magazine are buffs (green); a price increase is a value nerf and a cut is a buff. Recoil/spread tweaks are described in text — verify feel on the weapon page's TTK panel.

Do my crosshair and sensitivity still apply after this patch?

Yes — weapon balance doesn't touch view parameters. If the update adjusts viewmodels or spray patterns, re-check recoil in the firing range and fine-tune cl_ values if needed.

Does this patch change buying strategy?

Price and kill-reward edits directly move eco/force decisions: recompute the affected weapon's break-even in the Buy Planner.
