Okay, does anyone here know how to write this guy's name in Russian? I'm guessing it's somehing like Сергеы Косюароv, but I don't speak Russian, so I'm not so sure on that. By the way... What's the "I" stand for? CeeWhy2 05:11, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kalashnikov's son??

An earlier version of this page claimed that S.Koksharov's father is M.Kalashnikov. This appears to be plainly false:

1) even if the son changed his surname, there's still the patronymic discrepancy ("Ivanovich" vs. "Mikhailovich", which is what it would have been if the statement were true).

2) A web search turned up no pages confirming the father-son relation between the two men.

3) A biography (linked to by the Wikipedia article on Kalashnikov), in Russian, claims that his children are two daughters and a son named Victor (not Sergey)

I took the liberty of removing the highly dubious statement. If anyone still believes it was true, please provide a source. 74.100.144.76 07:09, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
