Hi All
This thread has reminded me of a visit I made to the Khyber pass many years ago, just after the Afghan war. There is a small town half way up the pass called Landi Kotal. It is renown as the weapons centre of the region. All along the Main Street small shops and workshops display their wares. Rocket launchers, AK45s etc etc. All copies made at the back of the shop or in full view on the street.
I’m not sure given the comments about quality on this thread that I would have liked to fire one!
Cheers
Howard
