It doesn't say what caliber the umbrella will come in ...

I think it's interesting that they're going the opposite way of Glock ... Glock used to make everything BUT guns, and now makes nearly nothing else ... Kalashnikov is looking at manufacturing everything BUT guns.

They're going to be self-opening umbrellas, not manual. And about 18" in diameter when open.

Hence the model number will be Avtomat Kalishnakov 47...

The inventor has formed an unlikely alliance with a small German company that wants to attach the Kalashnikov brand to a range of ordinary consumer goods that could also include snowboards, halogen lamps, pocket-knives and energy drinks.


I am there, I am in line, I have placed the deposit on the Kalishnikov Model 03 snowboard. Got me an extra Soviet military hatpin. The party's back on!!!
