Kalashnikov AK-47 (Kelashinkov or Kelash as Iranians say) is the symbol of violence, blind terrorism, murder, and genocide for many people around the world
Considered by many warfare experts as the best assault rifle of the 20th century, AK-47 was mechanically simple, reliable in the hard climate, dust tolerance, and simple cleaning. It has proper power and range of the bullets, proper accuracy, a relatively big magazine, the ability to install the scope, the ability to the usage of various types of anti-personnel and anti-armor projectiles, and the ability to fire rifle grenades and so on. These characteristics made it above the contemporary assault rifles such as G3, M16, and FN Fal
From World War II until today, the only important war that I remember in which AK-47 was absent was the Falkland War. There was not a coup de taut, rebellion, or conflict that Kalashnikov AK-47 had not a significant role, after the Second World War (more than 40 cases)
Nowadays, thanks to the Tehran Municipality and Tehran Metro order, this symbol of terror has transformed into the symbol of resistance against oppression and injustice
God save my people
