Along with Colt and Browning, Kalashnikov changed world history. As far as I'm concerned, he can damn well, do anything he wants.

Kalashnikov and his US counterpart Eugene Stoner (M-16) became friends in later years. Stoner died in 1997 at age 74 ... he designed various weapon systems among them the Stoner 63.

Yes, he’s the enemy, but still, what a guy! The AK is arguably the best rifle ever made. He’s a genius up there with Samuel Colt, John Browning and Barns Wallace.
Godspeed (can I say that to an old commie?) Mr. Klashnikov.

He’s old.
He’s also a fricken genius. I took apart my AK-74 last night. (I also have plenty of ARs.)
The AK is just brilliantly simple.

Cold War's over.
Are they our enemy just because they pursue their own national interests?

All I know is that I would never, ever want to be taken to the hospital in a place called Izhevsk.

More of a carbine, actually, but yes indeed... It ALWAYS goes bang, simple, effective, and easy to use.
SKS too (although he didn’t design those). Love ‘em.
