The first-place winner was awarded an AK-47 rifle and $700, a report from RBC Radio said. Second place was worth an AK-47 and $500, and third place got two grenades and $400, RBC reported. Winners also received religious books.
I heard somewhere that it is about $1 per round for 7.62x39I wander how much is ammo in Somalia.
third place got two grenades and $400
If this was in the US would the third place be the real winner? A full-auto NFA AK-47 is around 15k here, but what is the going price for two grenades?

I heard somewhere that it is about $1 per pound for 7.62x39
I have a coworker who is Iraqi and I asked him how much an ak-47 is there he said about $500 us and told me a story about how merchants in the market fire them into the air to prove they work! Can you imagine! Crazy stuff!
I saw a documentary with 2 American Journalist that were allowed into Somalia they were heavily guarded.They were allowed to move about and went to the arms market AK-47 were $150 American because at that point in time there was a cease fire so it drove the weapon prices down,an RPG-7 was $300.When they went to one of the crash sites of the Blackhawks,a man that owned the house where a few pieces fell was still BSed and demanded the journalists pay for his damage becuase they were Americans.
The documentary was made in 2009 I think.
Apparently the reason why Somalia is so unstable is because guns are readily available. What do you expect from a channel owned by Al Gore?
