(Mikhail Kalashnikov died…)
MOSCOW: Mikhail Kalashnikov, maker of iconic AK-47 rifle, dead, whose work as a weapons designer for the Soviet Union is immortalised in the name of the world's most popular firearm, died on Monday at the age of 94.
Kalashnikov once aspired to design farm equipment. But even though his most famous invention, the AK-47 assault rifle, sowed havoc instead of crops, he often said he felt personally untroubled by his contribution to bloodshed.
