Yeah, they really should replace their AKs with something cheaper to produce, simpler to maintain, and with greater reliability.....

Why no mention of the 74?
I would assume that he means all Kalashnikov designs, -47, -74, and the 100 series.
I don't see it as very likely that the Russkies will buy a redesigned, rechambered AK from the Israelis. Why would they dump all their millions of AKs just to buy slightly different AKs in 5.56? Same goes for the French FAMAS (because who really does use them?) or the SA80. National pride and all...
I actually think they are more likely to spend billions of rubles developing and testing a completely new rifle and completely new round, then make unsubstantiated claims that it will shoot 10k yards, have no noticeable drop, and will penetrate tank armor, all while being self-cleaning.
Or, they can just blow their 2011 military budget and get a few hundred ACRs or SCARs
Side note, what the hell is the German G1 rifle...does the writer mean the G3 or what?
To question your government is not unpatriotic — to not question your government is unpatriotic.
Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.
But, it's for the children!
The Germans bought a bunch of FN-FALs in the mid '50s. They were designated G1.
I would think the writer was referring to the G3 though.
Ah so, thx

I would be furious if I was a Russian. The AK platform is a source of national pride, and they haven't made a bad series yet. I believe "morally outdated" refers to the use of AK's by every group of evil known to man, and maybe since Russia is trying to warm up to the EU they are trying to separate themselves from their weapon exporting past. I'm really doubting they will go with another nation's weapon, but I do suspect they will be converting over to 5.56.
