I guess to bring back to firearms, that's one of few Russian products that DID have to compete with foreign competition and what was produced often stacked up favorably against the competition. This is why Russian-designed weapons such as the AK, SKS, Tokarev, Makarov, Mosin Nagant are rather popular in USA and they have a very solid reputation among the shooters than own them. People get them because they are cheap, but keep them and recommend them because for the price they're very good. They're not the absolute best guns out there, but for the price they sell at, it's just about impossible to get a better gun.
