There are some serious misconceptions about the AK-47, and no shortage of myths. Here's What You Need to Remember: The notion of a "self-cleaning" firearm was something that has been touted about for decades – probably because soldiers simply hate cleaning their weapons, even if guns that aren't cleaned regularly are very prone to jamming. When the M-16 first arrived in Vietnam it was promoted as a self-cleaning rifle – despite that it did, in fact, need regular cleaning. Today it is among the most famous guns in the world, but until it was used by the Soviet Red Army during the Budapes...

Here's What You Need to Remember: The obvious advantages of the M16 over the larger, heavier M14 in Vietnam, as well as the large number of U.S. troops deployed to Southeast Asia, led to further purchases and eventually the M16 overtook the M14 completely.
