Death?[edit]

He died young, only 53 - any cause known?... --KpoT (talk) 18:56, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

The three sources currently in the article are about the AN-94. There are hardly any biographical details in those, even the personality cult-like article "Эйнштейн, Чехов и Платон?!" is rather devoid of facts about Nikonov's life and career.

The result of this discussion was to merge Nikonov machine gun into this article. Alansplodge (talk) 15:06, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I propose to merge Nikonov machine gun into this article. It's a pretty slim stub and flagged as possibly non-notable. It seems unlikely that we'll be unable to generate more content for this article; the prototype seems to have been a developmental dead-end. Comments welcome.

Support that seems like a reasonable solution. If content does emerge to flesh out the article, it can always be split out again. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 19:13, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
