The Kalashnikov series of weapons became the main personal small arm of most of the PLO groups; RPDs and RPG-7s were the most common support weapons. The milled receiver of the AKS-47 is clearly visible on the left. The man in the background has an SKS Simonov semiautomatic carbine. (Author’s Collection)

This photo appears to show Egyptian troops rounding up civilians. Egypt deployed the Kalashnikov in its wars against Israel in 1967 and 1973; it also produces its own variant of the AKM known as the Misr, which has been extensively sold abroad. (Author’s Collection)
