Topic

My subject topic over the next few months, is going to be about weapons. I will be going into intimate details about these weapons, and I will be letting you know which of these tools I think are the best. I will be discussing multiple types of Weaponry from standard issue assault riffles to heavy Machine Guns and if time permits we can go into battle tanks, air assets etc. etc. I feel this topic is important to readers and my self for several different reasons. One reason for the readers, being that they can learn and understand specific characteristics about these weapons for knowledge such as “what would be the best home defense weapon for my family”? The reason why I chose to do this is topic because I am passionate about weapons and this knowledge will be useful when going up against a foe and knowing his or her weapons max range and that my weapon can reach out and touch that said being. Here is a preview of what you have to look forward to.
The M16 and its variants (A1, A2, A4) are an air cooled, gas operated, magazine fed weapon with a rotating bolt. The M16 is the main U.S. infantry fighting weapon, First introduced in jungle warfare in South Vietnam in 1963. it soon replaced the M14 and became the standard issue rifle by 1969. It fires a 5.56mm cartridge in which once it impacts its target it then ricochets off bones in the targets body and rips through vital organs. The Soviet weapon on the other hand, the AK-47 is a selective-fire, gas-operated 7.62x39mm assault rifle, first developed in the Soviet Union by Mikhail Kalashnikov. It is officially known as Avtomat Kalashnikova. It is also known as a Kalashnikov. Opposed to the standard assault riffle of the United States, the Kalashnikov was built and designed for a completely different mission. The Russian mind set was that a lot of big bullets would win wars. Which is why this weapon fires the larger 7.62mm round and is fully automatic. Opposed to popular beliefs that the AK can be buried in mud picked up and fired this weapon cannot actually do this I have fired plenty of Kalashnikov rifles and had plenty of weapon jams.
These weapons are only part of what you will learn about and you the reader can discover which weapon I think is better than the other.
