Top Killing Machine

The infamous AK-47 or the ‘Kalashnikov’, named after its inventor, Lieutenant General Mikhail Kalashnikov, linking up his name with innumerable mishaps and acts of violence across the world over the past few decades, has been the top killing machine for a long time and as predictions say, will remain so in the next 20 yrs too.

“The report estimates that there are up to 100 million AK-47s and variations of its design around the world. The rifle, which can fire up to 600 bullets a minute, is made in at least 14 countries and used by at least 82 state armies, it says.”

That is interesting. i always wondered what the 47 stood for. turns out it was made in 1947. :cb:

Re: Top Killing Machine

I have a documentry downloaded on my comp about AK-47..
they said it killed more people than nukes..
I dont know how the invertor should feel, its an awesome invention and even after 60years it still kicks butts .. but at the same time its application is the most bloody in human history..

Re: Top Killing Machine

I bet it was copied from a late war german assault rifle ...although the Russians will deny it
