Blame the Nazi Germans for making me become a gun designer … I always wanted to construct agriculture machinery.

I am proud to have created a weapon that has become a symbol of resistance against tyranny.

It’s funny that Kalashnikov and Glock, designers of the two most used guns in the world, originally designed mundane things. Kalash with farm equipment, and Glock with shower curtains

I think that’s to imply the AK is chambered for 7.62×39mm, which does hit harder than 5.56mm NATO.

AK-74/AKM are for 5.45x39mm, 7.62 was used for early types of AK.

Not to ‘Ackchyually’ you, but the AKM is also chambered in 7.62. The 74 was the one to bring in the intermediate cartridge.
