Now before anybody gets too worked up! Lets keep this civil! Many folks could care less for the man in America, because of their beliefs(and I respect that).
But as an inventor and engineer I truly respect the man behind the gun! Remember America has never been at "War" with Russia, and the man is not any more responsible for the evil folks that used his design than Eugene Stoner, for the evil folks that used his design!
No matter your stand on the AK, it is a design that has lasted and will continue to last the centuries!
And for me I give the designer respect! RIP
Mikhail kalashnikov has passed!

Re: Mikhail kalashnikov has passed!
The inventor of the iconic AK-47 assault rifle, Mikhail Kalashnikov, has died at the age of 94.
I love what he did for assault rifles in general K.I.S.S.
You beat me to this post. He designed or at least helped design the most widely used weapon in the world that says it all. No other weapon on this planet has ever been produced in the numbers as an ak platform. Покойся с миром R.I.P.
