when did they get them. I'm guessing it was the Soviets. Is this true?

Russia still makes them and China has copies that they produce and sell. AK-47's are the superior fire power out in the field. The barrel can be filled with dirt and sand and the weapon will still fire. M-16's can't do that.

The biggest producer of AK-47s in the world is the Czech Republic. They sell them all the time, every year, to almost anyone with money. Also most of the AK-47s used in Africa are refurbished from old parts.

The Soviets produced millions upon millions of AK-47's during the cold war, and many have made their way to the black market where they are among the most reliable weapons, but are very inexpensive.

Many of them got them during the cold war. Since AK47's are made in the Soviet Union, I'd say you are right. They are much better than our M16's.

You can get them here too! They don't shoot straight though.
