Michalek Jaroszewski Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Plain and simple, One weapon, Russian assault rifle made almost over 70 years ago, or, American assault rifle made about 45 years ago. Take your pick, and why. AK-47 VS. M16A1 PS: I choose AK btw ill state my reasons later. LET THE GAME BEGIN Quote

doctordan70s Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Gotta have both .You could need the ak if you ever are defending our constitution from foreign enemies cause more than likely they will have 7.62 x39 or 7.62 x 54.I love me a good ar and if we have domestic upheavel there is plenty of ammo out there.Both excellent weapons.

Trust me if I had to defend myself or my family from foreign terrorists I would you one of my 125 other guns instead first of an ak. 1 Quote
GhostXech Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) M16A1.. well M16A2 to be more specific.. I like the 5.56x45mm NATO round instead of the .223 Remington on the A1.. The AK47 is a completely unreliable weapon and haven't liked them, and never will. Edited February 27, 2014 by GhostXech Quote
TulsaGeoff Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 If shit hit the fan I want this 14.5" breakdown .308 Larue PredatOBR. Some guy at AR15.com just shot this 5 grouping at 100 yards away LOL. I'd like to see an AK variant do that. http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_2_219/246667_Larue_LIES___Regarding_New_14_5_7_62_PredatOBR.html Would need an Aimpoint red dot with Larue quick disconnect mount to swap the long range scope for close engagements Quote
doctordan70s Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Now thats what i'm talking about excellent group.You hand loading ? If not even more impressive. Quote
Yudeku Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 I would choose AK because it works in about any condition. Used RK-62 in the army and never jammed no matter how much you fired with it. Quote
gibson66 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Kinda like comparing an H&K m416 to a sten. m16a1 is clearly the better option, but the a k47 wasn't designed to be a masterpiece. The soviet union needed a simple design that could be mass-produced. The US gov't wanted something more complicated and precise. I know they've faced off in a number of conflicts, but they were built to satisfy two completely different needs. Quote
Michalek Jaroszewski Posted March 7, 2014 Author Posted March 7, 2014 Nice opinions. I know my Dad was a marksman in the army when he was in the force in Poland in 1972, during the state of war issued when Poland was leaving Communism. He's told me stories of how he and his friend would have never taken anything but the ak, but thats his opinion, and i happen to agree with it lol. And eah, youre right. The ak wasnt produced to be beautiful or anything precise, just to be very effective, and mass productive. Quote
