   Code (10)s homepage on the kalashnikov.guns.ru server. I try to assemble Automat Kalashnikov related material that is of interest to the novice in firearms, as well as to the beginning collector who wants to specialize in AK sytems. Being a fan of militairy small arms my interest in the AK series of rifle grew and with the help of serious collectors and AK afficionados I learned a lot on AK rifles, their operating system and development. I want to thank all the fellow enthusiasts from the AK- board, and hope that this homepage contributes interesting and needed info to the community. In case you notice mistakes, have better and more exact info, or wish to report further info that contributes to this effort, please contact me at Ben66@gmx.net.
