I Am Still Ready To Shake Hands

I'm Proud Of My Invention, But I'm Sad That It Is Used By Terrorists.

When I See Bin Laden With His Ak-47, I Got Nervous. But What Can I Do, Terrorists Aren't Fools: They Too Chose The Most Reliable Guns.

My Work Is My Life, And My Life Is My Work. I Invented This Assault Rifle To Defend My Country. Today, I Am Proud That It Has Become For Many Synonymous With Liberty.

The Ak-47 Is Not A Device Of Aggression ... I Devised This Machine-gun For The Security Of My Country.

My Aim Was To Create Armaments To Protect The Borders Of My Motherland. It Is Not My Fault That The Kalashnikov Became Very Well-known In The World; That It Was Used In Many Troubled Places. I Think The Policies Of These Countries Are To Blame, Not The Designers. Man Is Born To Protect His Family, His Children, His Wife. But I Want You To Know That Apart From Armaments, I Have Written Three Books In Which I Try To Educate Our Youth To Show Respect For Their Families, For Old People, For History.
