Even though he's a staunch Commie. You're in my prayers Mikhail. You made a rugged weapon. Hopefully, you found the rugged cross, and you're a "Faith" guy.

Can you imagine what the last century would have been like if he had never slapped together some stamped steel and wood in a shack? Crazy...

You know Spaz, it's that one idea that comes out of no where that changes everything.

Nikola Tesla comes to mind.

I bet Tesla would have made lightning bolts shoot out of a AK47. How cool would that be?

Well as uneventful as this sounds...there would have been something else.

I remember watching a documentary on him and is amazing how close he was to never having been more than just some guy trying to make guns.

There would have been something else and we would have no ak47 to even compare it to.
