KALASHNIKOV

Kalashnikov – the invention that has moved more borders, started more revolutions and taken more human lives than any other human innovation. Over 70 million AK 47 Kalashnikov automatic carbine assault rifles have been manufactured. It is the world’s most widespread firearm.

Folke Rydén and eleven of Sweden’s best-known international correspondents testify to unforgettable, terrifying, and decisive meetings with Kalashnikov. Mr. Mikhail Kalashnikov himself is interviewed by Morgan Olofsson.
