Gaddafi's son confirms possession of Heckler and Koch weapons

On February 28, 2011, CBS News showed a clip of Saif al-Gaddafi addressing a group of supporters in Tripoli. Holding a Heckler and Koch G36 assault rifle in the air, he told the crowd that "weapons are on the way."

He later confirmed the make of his weapon during an interview with Channel 4 News Correspondent Jonathan Miller. Miller asked Gaddafi about the AK47 he could be seen holding in the news clip. To which Gaddafi replied, 'that was not an AK that was a Heckler', in a tone to imply he had been insulted by the suggestion he would be seen with such old technology as an AK.
