Lt. Gen. Mikhail Kalashnikov, inventor of the AK47 assault rifle, has died at the age of 94. He reportedly regretted the wide distribution of the rifle and said it was meant for defense, not offense.

This is the AK-47 assault rifle, the preferred weapon of your enemy; and it makes a distinctive sound when fired at you, so remember it. - a quote from Heartbreak Ridge by Gunny Highway. It was probably the most widely produced and widely copied weapon of all time.
