    AK-47's?

    Not the AK-74's and AK-74u's seen in numerous photos of Georgian troops?

    I've already seen one picture of a South Ossetian (Russian allied Cossack) militia member carrying an RPK with an M-4 carbine slung on his back.

    I would imagine the Georgian in country stockpile of M-4 carbines and their 5.56mm ammo would have been limited to training material used by Georgian troops bound for Iraq and therefor in rather short supply.

    I'm guessing the SAM defences around the Roki tunnel entrances must be pretty thick by now...
