Doesnt surprise me in the least!!

 ... the omission of the A- BOMB 

[Dakota Widowmaker]

I will certain admit that IEDs are nasty, but, they are NOT as earth shattering as the A-bomb or the Sherman tank.

What about the U-Boat??? those nasty things just about flipped the outcome of WWII.

Or how about the AR-15/M-16 or even the AK-47???

And NOTHING about the stinger missile?


The spencer carbine can certainly be called the worlds first real "assault weapon".

Problem is there are simply too many weapons even for a top 100.  How is a person to choose?
