It is the first batch out of a total of 100,000 Kalashnikov rifles..

This was a solid assault rifle, for its day. But its day has long passed. Hugo was hoodwinked on this one. Yeah, they may be used in the future to kill their neighbors, but against the US, the Kalashnikovs' are of little threat.

Without ammo, the are just expensive spears or clubs.

Outdated , no way .These are the updated caliber series as well, still very potent . These are fine small arms that will last a very long time with little maintenance, as opposed to our very own M4/M16 series which require a constant maint/support program . Nothing to laugh off , he made a quality purchase . Now we will see his old military weapons turning up in the less wealthy leftist SA countries .
