The C7 is a close cousin of the US M16A2, both having been developed in parallel from the M16A1,

The weapon is also used by the Brit SAS and SBS.

"Lt.-Col. Shirin Shah Kowbandi said the army's old Soviet-era AK-47s frequently misfire."

No way! All the poodle-shooter foes claim the AK can be thrown into a mud hole, run over by a tank, and still fire flawlessly.

They don't have to send them all the way to Afghanistan. Kentucky is a lot closer.

Heck, I'll even drive up and pick them up myself to save them the shipping costs. ;-)

Oh GREAT! Another fantastic idea.../sarc

In 2003, we issued the ANA 24 Toyota LandCruiser 94's fitted out as field ambulances. They promptly disappeared. When they were "found" a couple of weeks later, we had discovered that the ANA had installed dark tinted windows and all kinds of sound systems. The medical equipment had been stripped out of them. They were basically transformed into pimp-mobiles.

One had been totally wrecked and hidden between two buildings.

Giving these people anything is a mistake. They have no concept of accountability.
