+Gepard 11,324 Posted December 23, 2013 RIP. He was a legend. And his weapon was it too. Easy to handle, reliable. The perfect weapon for the battlefield (not for the shooting range). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Gepard 11,324 Posted December 29, 2013 I heard they were going to throw him in the mud for 3 days, get him out, pull his action and he will be fine. (AK-47 humor) Its not only a joke. Its reality. During an east german commercial show for peruvian military they throw a Wieger942 (german Kalshnikov version) into the mud, drove 3 times with a truck over it, fetched it out, and fired without problems 300 rounds. (Okay, they changed the empty magazins.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
