Beijing: A teacher in a Chinese university brought 30 real AK-47 assault rifles to class to teach students having their major in weaponry.

The teacher, named only as Wu, from Nanjing University of Science and Technology, explained the structure of automatic weapons to his students. He had also brought an M-16 rifle, the Global Times reported.

The students also tried to disassemble the rifles in the classroom.
