  • awful comparison test 

  • Probably one of the most pro-American videos i've seen

  • Own both...ak

  • Obviously the AK won his tests

  • alright now i know the m16 is a great weapon and that ill be fireing either the SAW or M16 in 2 weeks once i start bootcamp.. but its 50years old.. its time to pass the torch, we went from horses to spaceships in like 100years. idk maybe its because guns mechanics are all the same? thats why we cant improve it without adding scopes/lasers etc?

  • @Master7770 Well you don't know about ballistics then do ya. A M9 9mm bullet goes at 1200 fps. That means it will go straight through you and you'll still be able to fight. With a 45 ACP it goes at around 960 fps meaning it will tear trough your body and put you down instantly.

  • I hate this stupid ass video. there are a lot of ermy ass kissers but this video is shit. They made the AK look worse than it actually is because they felt like being bias towards the American made M16. Ermy don't know it all though, I lost confidence in his knowledge when he started talking about that stupid 9mm vs .45acp debate. Talking as if the .45acp can stop a charging dinosaur in one shot while the 9mm takes 5 before the target feels it. Complete BS.

  • @Master7770 a handgun is only good to what 30-40m... at that range the .45 carries alot more energy than a 9mm

  • @sssarsss 9mm pistols usually means twice the amount of ammunition, and most study shows that volume of fire is decisive in combat

  • Я с АК хоть куда,он не подведёт.Потому что наш АК,всех врагов порвёт!(стих)

  • АК-47 СУПЕР

    

  • далбаёб на свою м-16 говно игрушачное

    

  • Rather comapre M16 with Ak 74...

  • I think Gunny was unfairly biased here..M-16 is a shitbag.

  • @TechMaven People who are not serious about guns and watch too movies buy those used pieces of shit imported to the U.S. lol.

  • Ok my bud is Russian. He'd rather have an m16 than an ak-47. Why? Rate of fit and accuracy. Ak is not accurate and is referred to as "the poor mans rifle"

  • @iamsofakindumb Why does being Russian mean anything? I've fired both rifles and I prefer the AK. Guess what? I'm American.

  • @esh325 You are too poor to afford an AR hence you have only "fired" one which is doubtful. Only broke ass people will buy Yugoslavian, Chinese, or Romanian junk for ridiculous prices.

  • @Warpath2198 Look at my videos.I have AR15's.

  • AK 47 Ruless

  • "What part of fully automatic did you not understand" HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH

  • 7:57 He knows that's complete bullshit.

  • should of gone up against a k74 not 47 or AN 94 TO COMPARE

  • They're both good weapons, but which one is better is determined by the situation

  • @Voldnessthat strike force stuff is garbage. Krebs offers a better system if you want to tacticool up your ak. (rear peep sight, real metal stock tube that can use better quality adjustable stocks, nice "real" railed foregrip, personally I went with wood the only usable add on is a side mount optic like the PK-a our rakurs-a

  • @elox02 Maybe, but mine looks good, holds zero on my red sight, and flashlight dont move. It folds and/or collapses, good to me.

  • Staged so that the M16 would win only one challenge:) So gay.

  • @Voldness M-16 is the gay gun here.

  • Anyone notice that the Gunny is shooting the AK at the end?

  • When it frist come out due to mistakings and bad powder the M-16 was a gun that jammed and was lousy, but then they fixed it, after 1967 the M-16 barely jammed at all. Just look at the Tet offensive in Vietnam, way more NVA and VC armed with Ak-47's were the Americans with M-16's. I'll that the M-16 because it haves more pro's then the AK-47.

  • why choose only one?

    get them both!

  • I've fired both but own one, the AR-15.

  • @davec3487 I've fired both but own both, and i prefer the AK. At least forf combat situations.

  • @Voldness Too bad you never been in combat! and apparently you are too poor to afford an AR15

  • @Warpath2198 What do you know about me dude? Oh, and as to your insult about not owning one, i own both, and so do both of my brothers. I promise mine is much prettier than yours:) By the way, I'm a nuclear operator, i make ok money dude. My brother was shot in the head in the line of duty also, but he killed the guy and he lived. I've had a breakin where i shot somebody. May not be your kind of combat, but yea, we have seen it.

  • @Warpath2198 That is, my brother lived, and my brother killed the enemy.

  • I don't know, I have read testimonials from Vietnam vets that said they came too late as support during a battle, and found many American dead with their M16s jammed,they used to tape the cleaning rods to their rifles to extract jammed rounds.

  • THAT IS TYPE56....

  • Some people dont understand that this show is Ermeys personal playground. He does not take it seriously :D

  • Comment removed

  • Why won't they ever compare apples to apples - M4 vs AK74M? They can't admit the truth LOL

  • the ak clearly won 2 out of 3 chalenges even thought old paps tried 2 cheat like a little gypsy. so the ak47 WON.

  • AKs=cheap, e-z to maintain & reliable. AR=light,accurate,u can carry alot of ammo for it, longer range,modular-swap a few parts around & you have a different rifle. Also if 1 were injured & could only use 1 hand, I think the AR would be for more cooperative but it does cost more money, requires a shooter who has some training on how to maintain a rifle NOT only cleaning the gun but replacing springs etc. & the 5.56 cal is random in its effectiveness but does offer better range.

  • @oeyesea Hmm.. the AK74M beats the hell out of it.

  • Hah. Ak-47 is the best gun in the world. Only thing better in m16 is that it looks nicer -.-

  • @Vichy112 Agreed, but even then you can get the strikeforce kit for 100 dollars like i did, with a collapsible/folding stock, and it looks like an AR:)

  • At least he's not biased lolol. 

  • all u gun know it all's shut the f**k up

  • the ONLY reason to use an AK in combat is if your enemy uses it and you don't want the sound to give your position away, otherwise it's M-16 all day every day

  • if you have a double digit IQ stick with the AK, if on the other hand you have at least average intelligence take the M-16

  • Marry me , Gunny .

  • I'd rather use an AK for close quarters combat and for it's simplicity. The M16 though, is better in terms of accuracy ,rpm, and (for the most part) the tumbling effect of it's bullets.

    In other words, they're both pretty much equal.

  • @TheNickIsQuick As far as RPM goes, fully automatic in the M16 was considered by many to be just a waste of ammo which is why the M16A2 and M16A4 used today doesn't have it. The 7.62x39 tumbles, in fact, most spitzer shaped rifle bullets have a tendency to tumble due to their bullet design. This is nothing special.

  • throw a decent muzzle brake on that AK and I bet that last test comes out a little more even.. those slant brakes are crap

  • Now, I had to sleep with an M16a2 for 10 weeks. I know it pretty well... However, I'd really like to try the Ak47. I would probably choose it for the rifle to have at my house. Reasons: It's cheaper, more rugged and reliable, and parts are everywhere for cheap because it is so common around the world. I love the m16, but that's my reasoning right there.

  • in the beginning i thought this is good video but after i watched i disliked it ! 

  • m-16 all the way

  • i would have like to have seen m16 vs ak 74. AK please

  • that seamed to be a totally fair and non biased test

  • fck that AK47 is way more better only thing wrong with it is muzzle sway...

  • im with gunny. F the Ak. all American M16 all dayy

  • i say AK-47 is better than the M-16 10 times than the M-16 so Suck it you losers

  • imma probably gonna get hate for saying this but oh well lol anyway in MY opinion i would use the ak for jungle environments where for sure u and ur gun is gonna get dirty, its more reliable, more stopping power,easy to clean,easy to operate and u could use it for close quarters combat if u are close within enemy. now the m16 i would use it for urban environments cause its lighter,more accurate,can carry more ammunition, easy to maintain in fully automatic fire and the 5.56 tumbles on impact.

  • @imbackihope which would be better in the current environment we r fighting in? (desert and mountain)

  • @Dzubur93 depends like for me if ur literally talking about desert and mountains then ak cuz it would be sandy and alot of sand would get in ur gun and probably strong wind have less effect on a heaver bullet 7.62 but thats just me someone who actually has fired one in the desert would know for sure and u can probably guess the m16 would get hella lot of sand and stuff in it cuz its high tech and tight parts makes it easier for sand mud etc to stay in the gun but the ak loose parts not really

  • ak is much better

  • Ak all day long baby

  • @rsh325. I know there is with mk263 and mk318 mod0

  • I personally prefer Kalashnikov. More reliable, more powerful, easier to clean and to assemble, and cheaper.

  • @esh325 hence newer rounds designed to frag at lower velocities made for the 14.5" barrel.

  • @elox02 Yes, this is what they claim. I'd like to see some gel testing of the new rounds.

  • @esh325 I guess it's what I get going on a history channel m16 vs ak47 vid or top 10...usually filled with video game fan boy kids with no hands on experience so I guess it's my fault for even attempting to post on these :) (not talking about you I've seen your vids. You shoot).

  • *necessarily true Fackler proved this ad brassfetcher has some good 855 slowmo vids on here along with others.

  • @elox02 The problem is that at 100 yards, out of a short barrel, it's unlikely to fragment. You want a bullet to have the same effect close up as it would at longer distances. It's very capable of killing, but it leaves a narrow wound channel.

  • @esh325 what's the argument here....ok m16 longer barrel (short or long which is it?) above 2700 fps it will frag and if you want to argue m16 to True ak47 that didnt originally come equipped with an under folder or side folder. M855 ain't great but it's better than spamcan 7.62x39 IMO at 2700+ fps. Coming from someone who owns and fires weapon like you his "much better" comment is bullshit & you know this. He seems to be coming from "bigger bullet = better" which you and I know that isn't nece

  • @MakMaksop you have absolutely zero experience with firearms. The round might be bigger but with its short case and bimetal jacket its wound charictorist is inferior to modern 5.56, why do you think the Russians attempted to copy the 5.56 with the 5.45x39? Easier to carry? How so? It's a bit heavier and has an awkward layout. I've carried both through classes, i like both but you obviously haven't even fired either or held either....shut up tool.

  • @elox02 Both kind of suck in FMJ. The M885 is unlikely to fragment out of a short barrel, except at close distances. At this point, it might tumble or not tumble at all. Since the vid is about the M16 vs AK-47, maybe he meant the AK was better to carry because the barrel is shorter compared to the M16. Plus, the stock can fold on the AK, making it easier to carry. Vast majority of AR15's do not have folding stocks.

  • no test needed. ak 47 is much better than m16. it fires a larger round, easier to strip, and easier to carry.

  • I like his earplugs, 9mm shellcasings, hehe... But seriously, the ak mechanism is more robust and the bullet is heavier, but on the other hand, the M16 is more accurate, enter the FN FNC, particularly the swedish version, the AK5 search on youtube if you will, 5.56*45mm ak mechanism and the accuracy of an M16...

  • i think compareing it against 74 would be more fair.

  • @shananagans5 RRA makes good precision ARs but far from milspec they batch test yada yada and so on. The XCR is prob the best piston option but I still wouldn't invest in it. 5.45 and 7.62x39 have very similar wound ballistics...I'm a big fan of Dr. Facklers tests and reports....any wound chart you see is usually his...a big factor in that I believe is the Russian ammo using a steel copper wash jacket instead of just copper.

  • @esh325. Yeah a heavy barrel it's lighter then lmgs and it won't heat up as much under sustained fire. That's there role sacrifice a little long term life an wear for sustained fire . I'm sorry I just think they are too over priced for what u get

  • @DeathDealingCadian you do realize the FAL and the ak fire a completely different round right? Ya both a .30 caliber bullet but there is a huge difference between 7.62x39 and 7.62x51. People are made of cinder blocks 5.56 has a lot better soft target damage then milsurp 7.62x39.

  • I can drop a cinder block on the ground from 4 feet and it will shatter. Walls are usually not hollow cinder blocks

  • This "test" is a joke, the AK 47 was easier to strip & assemble despite the fact that fart face walk of with some of the parts. The AK 47 had way more power then the M 16. a 7.62mm bullet can over penetrate a wall & kill how is behind it, a 5.56mm barely made it throw the block. the only gun which is better then the AK 47 is the FN FAL, which has more accuracy then the Ak 47, Long life the AK 47 & the 7.62mm bullet

  • @esh325 they are using it as a supplemental support weapon and a choice for special frces it is not a replacement for the infantry rifle.

  • @elox02 I know. I should have mentioned they were issuing M27 IAR as a LMG. My point is that they wouldn't be issuing them if they had no advantage what so ever. Plus, they went out of their way to buy them considering they cost a lot more then a DI M4 or M16.

  • @elox02 For the armies improved rifle program to replace/upgrade the M4, it is very possible that a gas piston M4 will be the replacement. I know H&K is a participant.

  • @esh325 my next for the collection is a scar17 (once the outrageous price goes down) or an LBR forged milspec receiver m14 or m25 (fucking expensive too)

  • @esh325 not saying they are horrible guns by any means IMO I just will never buy one. I've shot LWRC m6 a lot im not impressed. It's a nicely manufactured weapon but it solves a myth problem by causing potentially more problems for twice the cost.

  • @elox02 I agree with the other stuff, but I don't think it's a "myth problem". Gas piston AR's like the M27 IAR (HK416) are being used by the Marine Corp and other units in the United States for a reason I believe. Not to mention around the world. This isn't say to say a DI AR15 is bad, it's just a piston AR15 is more preferable in certain situations. It would have been easier for the Marine Corp to adopt a DI rifle, but they didn't.

  • @esh325 and a piston jam up takes an armorer to fix

  • @esh325 there is just too many design issues with a piston driven AR and I think one would be served better with a DI or a piston gun from the ground up in design. I think they would serve someone just fine in a "mission" scenario but my concern would be with the long haul with excess wear.

  • @elox02 I totally agree, I am not a fan of piston ARs. It's a fragile retrofit system. It also effects barrel harmonics. Adding a piston to an AR is a complex system in an attempt to fix a minor problem & I just don't see that it's worth it. I have & do like piston guns but you are totally correct. It needs to be designed from the ground up. I have heard good things about the Rock River piston gun. I have no personal experience with it but it is a ground up design & gaining a good reputation.

  • @esh325 google hk 416 production suspended.

  • @elox02 That's false. The claim that prodction was suspended was made in 2009. And the Marines adopted it in 2010. And just recently, H&K was at shot show showing off the HK416. According to firearmsblog, "UPDATE: The Tactical Wire got it wrong. Production was not halted."

  • @esh325 LWRC is far from poorly manufactured and arguably better. the gas tube on an ar15 isn't a "striking" force in that equation and your kind of reaching with that one. It's not really the oprod as the oprod return spring breaking and piston cups and gas regulators (which are also documented) the design Of that BCG isn't meant for a piston. Seriously look how the DI BCG operates...it is the piston with an expansion chamber behind the gas rings. Too much to write in this little space.

  • @elox02 I can't say you're wrong or right. I don't have a piston AR15, and have never fired one.

  • @elox02 But honestly, I'd rather have an AK then piston AR15 like you said. HK416 and LWRC are ridicously overpriced. And other piston AR15's are poorly designed and unproven. Plus every single one has different parts.

  • @FlyingPenguinBanana ones Chinese norinco which are very good AKs (1.5mm receiver not 1mm and double hook FCG) some of the best available and the other looks Bulgarian but not sure, and AKMs are not that rare in the US yes but all over no. Go to TheAKFiles may e you will learn something..Norinco aks are pretty damn good quality.

  • Wtf thats not even a legit ak. That's a cheap Chinese made type 56. Ak47ms are very rare these days

  • @esh325 it's physics. They band aide the issue with anti tilt buffers. They basically remove the gas tube "which fuels an internal piston that is the BCG on an m16" an smack that piston with another ss piston. I've seen high end piston ARs rip rims off of brass many times. There are much better piston driven guns out there. I'll dig up the photos o receiver wear/buffer wear/bolt wear so i can site my source to you. I'd rock an ak over a piston AR. Oprods and return springs break as well.

  • @elox02 Maybe that's true with other piston AR15's that are poorly engineered. So far, none of that has been reported to be a problem with the HK416. Theoretically, a gas tube could break also on an AR15, but how often do people break gas tubes? You'll be very hard pressed to break an operating rod, assuming it's well made. I've never broke an operating rod.

  • @V219R. Proud moron. Elitest ass You have no valid points and any you may have had are drowned by your elitist arrogant asshole rants. I really hope your not a representation of everyone from your country...that would be sad. Unfortunately your rants show your lack of knowledge about anything except being an ass. Plus the 74 style break is more effective then a slant break. And the AN 94 is crap...angled magwell and useless recoiling barrel that's not needed with the 5.45x39 round and arguably

  • @Deathboy2k sorry that was meant for seancul55

  • @Deathboy2k have you even seen the 416 stripped? It's not "vastly superior" in any way. People been jamming ss pistons in the M16 sense 1970 (rhino system) and still never caught on. The piston smacks the linear BCG above Its center axis causing a lot of torque with a steel BCG in an aluminum receiver that causes excess wear as well as shearing bolt lugs. The thing is so front heavy and has been having its own set of problems. Overpriced overrated what hk is known for.

  • @elox02 I've never heard that reported to be an issue with the HK416. The Marine Corp recently adopted a version of the HK416.

  • who else is creeped out by the video "let me see your war cry" on the left...

  • The entire purpose of the AR system was to provide an accurate, lightweight rifle that stayed on target in automatic fire, with a round that could be carried in sufficient quantities to support that rate of fire. Let me guess.. Most of sport shop Ar's aren't full auto, Are they?

  • if you cant decide witch one to pick go with the AK-74 :D

  • funny how he shotgunned having the ak47 at the end lol

  • AK-47 THE BEST....

    VIVA O MELHOR FUZIL DO MUNDO...

  • @SSTTEEAALLTTHH wtf you don't know shit are you talking about America um yea it's not really invading if we had civilians kidnapped or had two of our most important buildings divide bombed but yea where superior and yet were to blame bullshit bro I fukin brit

  • Comment removed

  • Mr. Ermey seems to be more than a little sarcastic in this video :D

  • Lol, good guys. Go around the world invading random countries, bombing infrastructure, assassinating civilians, imprisoning and torturing people in offshore prison camps, now signed a law allowing indefinite detention back home,...

    Good guys, right...

  • Why does every one still Talks shit about the M16 jamming? That was only the Older version... The modern M16 is a boss...

  • Oh and to update my comment: It also depends on what environment you're in. If you want accuracy, go for M16, if you want durability, go for AK47. Personally, I'd choose M16 because Im more patriotic

  • @DCfreak87 I consider the AK an accurate weapon from my experience of shooting and owning them.

  • Ok to all you guys that say AK47 never jams you obviously don't know anything about guns. Every gun jams once in awhile which is why you gotta clean them after everytime you shoot them. Sure the AK47 has alot of stopping power but they are a piece of shit when the barrels are caught on fire and are rolled in the mud. Stop getting facts from Call of Duty they don't know shit about guns and I bet most of them never shot an Ak47 in their life

  • @DCfreak87 They jam, but they jam much less often then the M16. Rolled in mud huh? Barrel catch on fire?

  • @ushockey08 the 7.62x39 bi-metal jacket milsurp rd tends to go in flip backwards and go out (minimal energy transfer if you ask me) an 5.56 tumbles to a degree..more like yaw a bit then break apart causin a huge temperary cavity (due to velocity) a large perminant cavity along with several smaller perminant cavities due to fragmentation.

  • The AK round has more stopping power, but the M16 round has a tumbling effect when it enters the body that causes maximal internal damage. The M16 might not drop the enemy as hard, but it protracts his suffering which forces his comrades to give him medical attention and not fight. It's really an evil little round.

  • @ushockey08 One, big reason the US is using 5.56mm instead of .762 is because of the energy released. While the AK's round is heavier and has more stopping power (momentum), the M16 round by FAR has more kinetic energy because it travels far, far faster. The faster a round travels will exponentially increase the kinetic energy. Momentum = mass*velocity. Kinetic Energy = mass*velocity^2. The 5.56 is smaller, more accurate, and releases TONS more energy upon impact because of its increased speed.

  • @ushockey08 Where do people get that from? They have about the same energy & the 5.56 is better at transferring that energy to a body. The AK 47 round wastes more energy passing through the body. The heavier slower round does have diff effects on diff materials, some being an advantage but for human sized targets the 5.56 does more damage & is a better stopper. There is a reason Russia copied the 5.56 with the 5.45. It's the little round that could. lol

  • @shananagans5 The M67 yugo round does damage very similar to a 5.45x39. I believe they copied the 5.56 and made the 5,45x39 because of the flatter trajectory,lighter ammo, and decreased recoil rather then wounding effects.

  • @esh325 No doubt, wounding effects were just part of the decision. Funny thing is the 5.45 wounding abilities were totally by chance & due to low quality manufacture. Either way, it's a good round that lots of people underestimate because they don't understand how devastating velocity is. lol I must admit I resisted getting an AR because of that. After the import ban made it virtually impossible to get a quality AK I got my first AR & I was stunned at the AR quality & ability of the 5.56

  • @shananagans5  Almost every military spitzer shaped rifle bullet will have a tendency to yaw/tumble in flesh. They did tests in the United States on the 5.45x39 and found it did no unusual damage to flesh. Most 7.62x39 made today with a lead core will have similar wounding effects to a 5.45x39. You can look it up.

  • @esh325 lol Well yea, basic physics dictates that motion unless a soft tip or other design factor overcomes it. The 5.45 starts that motion quickly because of poor quality manufacture & the high velocity imparts static effect. No, its not some kind of magic bullet, it just has the advantages of any small high velocity round.

  • @esh325 They all 5.56, 5.45, & 7.62x39 have roughly the same energy(5.45 a bit less) so they will have similar wounding abilities. A smaller faster round will tend to dump its energy faster & not waste as much passing through. Any of them are more than sufficient for humans. That's why they are so popular for military arms & the reason 7.62x39 is falling out of favor. The advantages are minor, no additional stopping power & there are notable disadvantages in overall weight & trajectory.

  • @shananagans5 Even then, the 5.45x39 has no chance of fragmenting like the 5.56.

  • Thats actually a chineese type 56. The AK-74 should be compared with the M16 not the 47. The 74 was made to be its competitor.

  • Ask the spec ops guys which one they prefer.

  • 223 is more accurate, if you can get a head shot its over,comes with less punch but more travel distance. but the 7.62x39 has more punch, but really inaccurate to a certain distance.

    i got with 6.8spc

  • Why does america use the m16? Think bout it...

  • if u love the ar 15 ore the m16 u r a moran

  • fuck the m16 it suck and thet is not an ak47 but an akm 

  • AMEN Gunny you made the right call

  • I'm noting that they didn't show much of the back of that wall, you know, where only the ak rounds were making holes? I'm not a huge fan of soviet bloc weapons, but each gen of m16 seems to be hopelessly outclassed by the same gen ak series.

  • Plan and simple ak better I rather fuck some ones shit up than injure them

  • this guy really dosent like the ak 47

  • STFU IDIOT AMERICAN GAY ASS BITCH!!!YOUR SOLDIERS ARE A FUCKIN JOKE!!! SO PREPARE FOR RAPE BY RUSSIANS!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA AK47-AMERICAN ASS RAPER !!!

  • @luka2298 And this example of a person is why Russia loses 20 million people per battle, and is one of the poorest countries right now.

  • @flowingwolfpack and USA in Vietnam killing civilans and suffer extrem losses,then crying in Afgan and Iraq like pussy they are and in Nam they could only make a Ngao Van Djap a 5 star general because hes soldiers shot US helos and planes from rikshas..hahaha lololol.As for Russia,its old,military country whos weapons always fuck you and will continue to do so,because they have balls,and mad scientists who are innovative unlike yours who just dont know how to spend their extreme money!BITCH!

  • @luka2298 Oh USA kills civilans, have you not heard of Russian. Let me get this through your thick Russian retarted empty skull, your just some little soviet wannabe bastard. Grow some balls before you act like you have them. America could kill you in our sleep blindfolded

  • @luka2298 go back to nam so they can fuck you more im coming to USA to kick your ass in kyokushinkai and to rape your women and your mama too ;) russia can kill you 10 times over GAY ! hahaha

  • last fire test is not a orginal ak is a ak 47 kalhnikov!!

  • No grouping whatsoever

  • This is bias as fuck

  • The Ak-47 has the potential to be better due it's higher firepower, vastly increased durability and extreme reliability. Yet, the sights are crap, the weapon is often made poorly and the troops using it aren't trained very well.

    Even worse, while the recoil can be manageable in either weapon, as you saw gunny was the only one that knew how to use the Ak-47 with any considerable level of accuracy in fully automatic fire by firing at the hip. Ak-47 can be better, but this is rarely the case.

  • @WW2AirSofters minus the short barrel you mean a psl or vepr. It's already made. basically an ak chambered in 7.62x54r. The action is the same. And a 10" barrel isn't the best for support I would still keep it a heavy contoured 16" or longer barrel found in the vepr. You can swap furniture with standard ak furniture google "waffen werks ak54r" based on a psl parts kit. Can't imagine full auto variant on that light gun though that round kicks.

  • the bullet may be a 7.62x39on the ak but the casing is very small for such a large bullet the 5.56x45 is better for an assualt rifle i would say if you lenghtend the barrel on the ak bye about 6 inches and rechambered it for 7.62x53 it would be a great support weapon

  • I'd still use my BCM in dirty environments

  • You don't need a big bullet as long as your accurate with it, the M16 I would def use in war but if I was in wet muddy dirty nasty terrain AK-47 only ONLY because of its durability

  • @qwhoamip and"dude obviously"You have zero hands on with either weapon or even researched ballistics of any kind to form any opinion that's worth anything but pure shit.

  • @qwhoamip you have hands on experience with this? Your comment sounds like its coming from a child (no offense if you are one) but your logic is very uniformed. The round passing right through someone isn't necessarily a good thing...you want the round to yaw and fragment causing multiple wound channels weather it exits or not is irrelevant. Google "m16 leg shot" and tell me the 5.56 Is ineffective.

  • I think that R. Lee was a little too biased to be making such a comparison. Personally I think the AK wins out in stopping power. I've seen slow motion footage of a 7.62 round bursting through 2 4 inch posts strapped together where as the 5.56 round from the M16 did not. I would not want to be shot by either I guess is what it really comes down to because both would destroy a person.

    I wish he had included the AK74 in the comparison.

  • Dude Obviously The AK is better than M16 because the bullet the Ak has is way bigger than the M16..and if ya get shot by the ak, it can go through you.

  • Yuk is right

  • 72 soldiers went into battle. Only 19 returned. All the lost soldiers were found dead with their m16 rifles stripped down beside them, as they tried desperately to make them work. I don't think that speaks highly of the m16.

  • @jOLLYROCKETEER Bullshit, has never happened..
