The man made a mean vodka. RIP
How a guy lived that long being a Russian, I can't imagine.
NOOOOOOOOO
Wow, I didn't realize he was still alive! Obviously he was very young during WW2 and inventing the AK47.
Good thing his last name was a pretty cool name for an automatic rifle. ;)
:( Not many people can say that their invention affected the lives of millions of people.
He was still alive? :huh:

There was always somebody gonna take the StG 44 and redesign it to suit the machining ability and parts available to post war soviet industry. But, like Columbus, getting the first matters a lot.
Was I the only one who knew he was still alive? :huh:
RIP :(
The only man in the world who can beat the a-bomb scientists for inventing the weapon that has killed more people than any other.

:yeahright: I'm sure there are many other inventions that have a higher death toll than an a-bomb, as of this moment anyway.

Truly, the lives lost to the Etch-A-Sketch are too numerous to count.
