There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Darn shame to attach the name of a phoney designer to a history-rich company.

Because Kalashnikov did not design the rifle that was given his name, he was appointed so to speak.It was designed by a team of engineers led by Hugo Schmeisser.
