Father of AK-47, Mikhail Kalashnikov, dead at 94        12/23/2013


Kalashnikov often said he felt personally untroubled by his contribution to bloodshed.  


"I sleep well. It's the politicians who are to blame for failing to come to an agreement and resorting to violence," he said in 2007.


"Blame the Nazi Germans for making me become a gun designer," said Kalashnikov. "I always wanted to construct agricultural machinery."
