I just talked to Putin. He said to tell you that little girls with little boobs play with stoner weapons.

Obviously a rough translation but I think you got it pretty close.

If you take out all the 'Stans that would be a much shorter list.

 

[Hammerhead636]

Russia and the CIS use the AK-74.

And the ability to change caliber is way over rated. There is no situation where someone would need 1 intermediate caliber over another. If you need to change caliber, then you picked the wrong caliber to begin with.
