[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The automatic [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/95190.html]rifle[/url] he designed became one of the world's most familiar and widely used weapons.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Its comparative simplicity made it cheap to manufacture, as well as reliable and easy to maintain. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Although honoured by the state, Kalashnikov made little money from his gun. He once said he would have been better off designing a lawn mower.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Kalashnikov was admitted to hospital with internal bleeding in November.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]He died on Monday in Izhevsk, the city where he lived 600 miles east of Moscow, an official there said.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]Matching the Germans[/b][/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Mikhail Timofeyevich [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/95190.html]Kalashnikov[/url] was born on 10 November 1919 in western Siberia, one of 18 children. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]In 1938, he was called up by the Red Army and his design skills were used to improve the effectiveness of weapons and equipment used by Soviet tank regiments.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]He designed the machine gun after being asked by a fellow soldier why the Russians could not come up with a gun that would match the ones used by the Germans.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Work on the AK47 was completed in 1947, and two years later the gun was adopted by the Soviet army.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Kalashnikov continued working into his late 80s as chief designer at the Izhevsk firm that first built the AK-47. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]He received many state honours, including the Order of Lenin and the Hero of Socialist Labour. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Kalashnikov refused to accept responsibility for the many people killed by his weapon, blaming the policies of other countries that acquired it.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]However, pride in his invention was tempered with sadness at its use by criminals and child soldiers.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"It is painful for me to see when criminal elements of all kinds fire from my [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/95190.html]weapon[/url]," Kalashnikov said in 2008.[/size][/font]
