ACM10: When I was a kid growing in my village, Ogidi. AK47 bullets was a common sight when you are walking along the road. Many times we found rusting heavy guns in the bush. Those sights are not common nowadays.

[size=18pt]It was not clear whether the bomb was laid by the Nigerian troops or their Biafran counterparts, but a source said the area was the base of Biafran troops when Owerri sector fell to Federal troops during the war.[/size]

teeo: Now thats serious, cant imagine what would have happened if the bomb had detonated. I guess the villagers would have been shouting and mob attacked any hausa man with the vicinity.

Yeah that's true, but unfortunately there is nothing modern about Nigeria, Nigeria's arsenal is filled with old and antiquated hardware. Nigeria's weaponry would be more effective in 1960s Vietnam war than today.

Obiagelli:
Why not speak of what you know, have you seen our armory lately

Abagworo: Nothing new there. There are thousands of such bombs across Igboland. Sometimes while digging for building foundations we do get grenades, guns and bullets. They are mostly rust.

You got it wrong dear, such words are not meant to be used here.

Soviet Mikhail Kalashnikov was conscripted into the Red Army in 1938 and served as a tank driver when he was injured during the Battle of Bryansk in 1941. During his time at the hospital, he began work on a firearm design specifically to fulfill the requirements to a gun competition being held for the new 7.62x41mm cartridge. Despite losing the competition, Kalashnikov - now part of a team - sought to fulfill a new Soviet Red Army need for an assault weapon chambered to fire the new 7.62x39mm M1943 cartridge. While the war ended in 1945, developments of new automatic weapons continued. The Kalashnikov design (the prototype known as the "AK-46" was successfully tested in 1946 and a revised, more reliable form appeared in 1947 for additional testing. The Red Army liked the robust qualities of the new weapon and formally accepted the type as the "AK-47" in 1949 (AK = "Avtomat Kalashnikova"

donwilz: Common sense, pesin no go get. Na only to de find wahala, instead , u don fool urself. Ak47 rifles had been in use as far back as early 1940's. Don't you feel dumb now.. eh?

Obiagelli:
We can't compete with the US, but to say we've got wwii weapons is ignorance. No insults intended

F-7, L15s and m-35 are not ww2 crafts
And not to forget the 24units Flying Leopard II recently purchased

The ripples of the Biafran war continue till this day - in every figurative and literal sense.

Who said life was fair?

I also think that the SE states are long overdue for inspections and checks for hidden bombs. Things like this are dangerous.
