Pakistani groom receives AK-47 rifle as gift on wedding day

Finding a wedding gift can be difficult and getting something unique can be a challenge.

However, an AK-47 would probably not even be on most people's lists but this "lucky" Pakistani couple received exactly that on their wedding day.

A video of the incident was posted on Twitter by a Pakistani journalist which soon became viral.
