Cheap knockoffs...have almost knocked-out Russia's famous assault rifle maker Kalashnikov.
It's AK-47 is known worldwide for rugged reliability...but the company is flirting with bankruptcy...after making over 100 million rifles.
Even the Russian army has stopped buying it.
Can new hipper models...and hipper marketing save it?
