"During that war, the Germans developed the first modern assault rifle, the SG-44. This weapon looked a lot like the AK-47, and that was no accident. The SG-44, like the AK-47, used a shortened, 7.92mm, rifle cartridge."

Hmm,kinda makes you think the AK came 1st!!

Seriously though,can us mere mortals even buy this ammo yet?

If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you�re not racist, you�ll have to find someone else to vote for in 2012 to prove you�re not an idiot.
