I have more trust in what you write than my memory

Edit

Searched the internet and found this article

http://www.haaretz.com/news/ak-47-in...heirs-1.185455

Here's a phrase from the article

"In Vietnam, American soldiers threw away their M-16 rifles and used [Kalashnikov] AK-47s from dead Vietnamese soldiers, with bullets they captured. That was because the climate is different to America, where M-16s may work properly," he said."

so my memory was not that wrong.
