*Cross post wth GD*

The July 1984 edition if Solider of Fortune magazine contained the first introduction to the new Soviet carbine. I posted it on Reddit but figured you guys are probably the better crowd.







EDT- if you open the image in a new tab the resolution is high enough that you can easily read the full article and enjoy the photos.

Neat.

Conflict locations read like that was written yesterday. No much has changed in 35 years.

Didn't know this existed, thanks for posting @Cobalt-60.  Just found a back issue copy online, blew the 15 bucks on it.  Neat to have for the collection.

Thanks for posting. Back in the 80s, pre-internet, SOF was THE source of information about the worlds’s smaller wars.  IIRC, SOF brought out the first 5.45mm ammo.

My copy finally arrived.  Not entirely pristine, of course, but quite excited to pair it with my krink now.

I've seen it posted here before but still really cool.

Did the article say where the name Krink came from? I've always wanted to no the origins of the name and could never find out.

Thank
