How Can This Be??????

Russian maker of AK-47 faces bankruptcy

"THE Russian producer of the Kalashnikov assault rifle, the world's most ubiquitous firearm, is facing bankruptcy owing to falling orders."

I guess it could be that it's such a craptacular rifle that the darn thing is too reliable for it's own good. Who would've thought it?

I really suspect that it's George Bush's fault.
Or Racism.
