Take an AK47 and refine it to the tenth degree and you get one of the finest made AK47s, a Valmet Sako 76F. Used by the Finnish Army. A real quality made item. Too bad they're so expensive. Remember, our weapons are made by the cheapest bidder.

Not quite. The Finns continue to use the original 7,62x39mm AK round, both in their first-issue m/62 Valmet rifles and the most recent m/92 version. They've also obtained a great many East German MpiKms folding stock versions and Chinese type 56-1 variants.
