AK-47 'War-master' & the History of 'Cheap War'

[Vladimir]

No, we learned to take it apart and assemble it in 30 seconds. We were all trained. And a few of us, such as myself, were trained with variants too.

Ya, I was just teasin' Watchman. I've actually fired a few rounds (5 or so) from the Egyptian version of the AK; Mahdi, Mahadi, MuaDeeb, whatever it's called.

I was surprisingly impressed with the weapon. The accuracy was decent and more important, it just felt goood . The M-16 wasn't nearly as much of a pleasure to shoot as that weapon. Strange really.

Yes, I find the AK-47 to be near perfect in its proportions. It feels just heavy enough, and the rifle butt seems to be a natural fit. The placement of the trigger is great too. It isn't the most widely recognised and used gun for nothing!
