Most Widely Used Firearm
The world's most widely used firearm is the Automatic Kalashnikov 1947 (AK-47). During the Cold War, the former USSR supplied these arms to anti-Western insurgents and thus the rifle became a popular symbol of left-wing revolution. Between 50 and 80 million copies and variations of the AK-47 have been produced globally.
The gun was developed in the early 1940s by Russian designer Mikhail Timofeyevich Kalashinikov. There have been numerous modernized versions of his basic design, types of which are in service with almost all ex-Communist militaries.

But, if I tried to put that into my Avitar, my mug would be so small that I'd not be able to scare little children!

I would say drive it out there, but with the price of gas these days...

When I had to sent my 686P back to get the chambers reamed properly, I actually just dropped it off there. I was on my way west, so it was a 20 minute detour off of the Pike.

If you need warranty work on your S&W, just call their 800 number, and they will send you a shipping label. They pay for shipping both ways on any warranty work.

So, that takes care of money, can't help you with the time!
