This video explores the rare "Baghdad" carbine, an Iraqi-manufactured copy of the Egyptian Rasheed carbine. Introduced in 1974 or 1975 and produced until 1978, approximately 9,000 to 10,000 units were made. The video highlights the scarcity of information and surviving examples of this firearm, with only a handful known in the United States. The discussion delves into the limited production numbers, the mystery surrounding the fate of the majority of these carbines, and the historical context of Iraq-Egypt relations at the time.
