Yuri Orlov:"Of all the weapons in the vast soviet arsenal, nothing was more profitable than Avtomat Kalashnikova model of 1947, more commonly known as the AK-47, or Kalashnikov. It's the worlds most popular assault rifle. A weapon all fighters love. An elegantly simple 9 pound amalgamation of forged steel and plywood. It doesn't break, jam, or overheat. It'll shoot whether it's covered in mud or filled with sand. It's so easy, even a child can use it... and they do. The Soviets put the gun on a coin. Mozambique put it on their flag. Since the end of the Cold War, the Kalashnikov has become the Russian people's greatest export. After that comes vodka, caviar and suicidal novelists. One thing is for sure, no one was lining up to buy their cars."
Yuri Orlov:"It's like parking your car in certain neighborhoods in the Bronx. You just don't do it."
Yuri Orlov:"There's no problem leading a double life. It's the triple and quadruple lives that get you in the end."
Yuri Orlov:"There are over 550 million firearms in worldwide circulation. That's one firearm for every twelve people on the planet. The only question is, how do we arm the other 11?"
Yuri Orlov:"Guns! Grenades! Hooray!"
Yuri Orlov:"You know who's going to inherit the earth? Arms dealers. Because everyone else is too busy killing each other. That's the secret to survival. Never go to war, especially with yourself."
Yuri Orlov:"To escape the Soviet Union, my family pretended to be Jewish. Little about my life has been kosher ever since."
Yuri Orlov:"The first time you sell a gun is a lot like the first time you have sex. You have absolutely no idea what you're doing, but it is exciting and one way or another it's over way too fast."
Andre Baptiste:"You know, they call me the 'Lord of War', but perhaps it is you."
Yuri Orlov:"It's not 'Lord of War', its warlord."
Andre Baptiste:"Thank you, but I prefer it my way."
Yuri Orlov:"I even shipped cargo to Afghanistan when they were fighting my fellow Soviets. I never sold to Osama Bin Laden. Not on any moral grounds. Back then he was always bouncing checks."
Andre Baptiste Jr.:"Can you bring me the gun of Rambo?"
Yuri Orlov:"Part 1, 2 or 3?"
Andre Baptiste Jr.:"I've only seen part 1."
Yuri Orlov:"The M-60. Would you like the armor piercing bullets?"
Yuri Orlov:"This was the chaos that the old guard had always feared. As far as they were concerned I was giving arms dealers a bad name. But then they could hardly report me to the Better Business Bureau."
Simeon Weisz:"The problem of gun runners going to war is that there's no shortage of ammunition."
Yuri Orlov:"The first and most important rule of gun running is never get shot with your own merchandise."
Yuri Orlov:"Gentlemen, the new Uzi Machine Pistol. Big firepower in a small package. This little baby uses 9mm hollow points, 20 to 25 round extendable mags, rear flip adjustable sights, silencer comes standard, excellent recoil reduction, muzzle jump reduced 40 percent, 60 percent improved noise suppression. You could pump a mag into me right now and never wake the guy in the next room."
"Man cocks gun"
Yuri Orlov:"Of course that would eliminate your opportunity for repeat business."
