different
from all the other AK books? It is co-written by a very close associate
of designer Mikhail Kalshnikov at the Izhmash Arms Factory and one of
America's most respected military small-arms experts. Because of Valery
Shilin's close ties to both the designer and the factory, the authors
were able to gain access to information, photos and weapons never before
seen in public, including the AKB and AKB-1 assault rifles, the mysterious
A-62 and the very latest prototypes of the AK's replacement, the AN-94.
They fill in the gaps in the knowledge about the history and development
of not only the Kalashnikov family of weapons but of other Russian small
arms as well. Most important, as a friend and colleague, Shilin adds
a personal perspective on the man behind the design of some of the most
legendary weapons of the 20th century.
