In my series on the weapons of the South Caucasus, I have previously discussed the background of the region's territorial disputes.In this section, I will focus specifically on the AK-103.This firearm was designed in 1994, which is noteworthy because it was the same year the First Nagorno-Karabakh War ended with a ceasefire agreement.The story of the AK-103 is entangled in Russia's emergence.
