If you want to know the list of different powerful weapons in today's world, then maybe the names of many weapons will come up. But if you want to know what is the most widely used and popular weapon in the world so far, the name that comes to mind is the AK-47 rifle. From a country's military to illegal terrorists - you will find it in everyone.
But why is it so popular?
The maker of the AK-47 was a former Soviet Army lieutenant. General Mikhail Kalashnikov was shot dead by German forces in Bryansk in October 1941. He was on leave for six months. At that time, he came up with a plan to make a new type of rifle. He is obsessed with it. He first designed his weapon in 1948. It is capable of firing 600 bullets per minute.
No training is required to use it. You don't know how to wield a weapon, you have no knowledge of weapons, these are not problems. There is a record of learning to fly an AK-47 in just a few hours of training. The US Army had to be defeated in the Vietnam War mainly for AK-47. Easy to use, this weapon works well for Vietnamese.
Another thing is that this rifle can be used as you like. Even if it is soaked in water, nothing happens, wet weather can't do anything, dust can't do any harm to sand. It works even if you run the roller on it. Moreover, it can be easily used by anyone! If you explain to a child, he can operate the rifle in an hour. Another interesting aspect of the rifle is that it can be reassembled and reassembled in 30 seconds!
The AK-47 has been around for more than 60 years since its discovery. The firearm has been produced more than 100 million times during this period. Currently these firearms are being used in more than 50 countries. It is said that this gas-powered automatic firearm is the cause of most deaths in the world so far.
So far, many versions of the rifle have been released. The rifle is used in the armies of 108 countries around the world. AK-47s are also used in the Bangladesh Army.
Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden always carried an AK-47 rifle with him. Kalashnikov was a little sad about this. "I get hurt when I see terrorists shooting with my weapons," he said.
An example of how popular the rifle is is that the national flags of several countries have pictures of the rifle. The flags of Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Burkina Faso and East Timor have pictures of AK-47 firearms. Even the flag of the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has a picture of AK-47.
Note that Kalashnikov does not need to be considered a villain as a weapon maker. He was a poet. He had been practicing poetry since adolescence. Wrote lots of poems. He also published six books of poetry. But, the strange notion of life. The man of poetry became known as the maker of weapons.
