and they killed a heck of a lot of Afghans - this wasnt a bloodless operation - they lost 14 dead themselves and killed over 350 Afghanis including those who died by being executed after they surrendered

FYI for those looking for an interesting weapon for East Africa the Tanzanian Army also had the Stechkin - so you could encounter it in the hands of marauders or the PARA
