What'chu talkin' 'bout Willis?
What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? Or if during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

Why isn't Walther, Armalite, H&K, Norinco, Tula, Izmash, that famous Czech company that I can't pronounce or write, Armstel, Steyr, Star, Enfield, or FN on the list?
Maybe even General Electric should be on the list- they did make the M134.

My apologies, Izmash just looked Turkish to me. Speaking of which historically the Ottomans were fantastic weapon designers. A shame that the fact is largely forgotten because "Duh SickMin of Yourope" horseshit and obviously the western europeans and americans being way ahead of the curve when firearms became universal.
