It's kinda sad what the liberals have reduced gun rights arguments to. The real issue is crime rates & we have mountains of criminology literature/studies showing guns reduce violent crime. They can't directly argue that so they make up some BS about "assault" rifles or "cop killer" bullets. We have gun rights in the US & it's a good thing. Liberals need to get over their idealistic visions
If you want to piss of a conservative, lie to them
If you want to piss off a liberal, tell them the truth
@lgarvey1979 what have you been living under a rock? its only one of the most popular firearms in american history. they have made literally millions of them.
@lgarvey1979 oh, well that would make more sense. sorry about that, its just here in america if you dont know what a "94" is then you dont like guns lol
Yes, round for round it is like a "30-30 Lite" as Massad Ayoob describes the 7.62x39. But your typical lever gun, or bolt action doesn't have the ability to rock in a 75 round drum a spit out a round with every pull of the trigger. Rate. Of. Fire. Very important. Lets not kid ourselves because we are afraid of the anti gunners. A semi auto mag fed rifle has more firepower than a damn bolt gun, or even a lever action, regardless of the power of the individual round.
Two years ago I killed a buck with a .243 Winchester / 58 grain V-MAX. I shot the buck at 152 yards. The buck walked about 10 yards and dropped dead in his tracks. Bullet placement is everything.
I've killed a 160lb whitetail with a 7.62X39MM. I hunt with a Zastava M-70 (with a 5 round mag). It didn't drop him but he bled out in about 2-3 minutes. You just got to be a good shot and know where to put the round. Any round to a vital can kill.
Well yeah the AK-47 was meant to wound with the first shot 2nd or 3rd would kill. It's a assault rifle its power comes from the number of rounds. Using a hunting round was not fair.
@HipsterBot2000 he was showing that the ak47 should be banned in the united states because there are hunting rifles that are much more powerful and dangerous and is wasn't a comarison video
@travis199urkul Hunting rifle or not the AK-47 should be available. Just because its more powerful do not mean the most powerful type of weapon should be the only option. But whatever its nonscense.
a gun is a gun regardless, it will still kill just the same. guns are great and they protect freedom and keep freedom. anyone who fears a gun may as well be afraid of rocks which can kill as well, i would rather be killed with a gun rather than getting my face caved in with a rock or any other solid object
@squierplayer Agreed. My 8mm mauser pokes nice holes in water jugs with fmj's. Soft points on the other hand turn them inside out. I'd like to see some melons blasted with those new 7.62x39 hornady z-max.
okay your at a stop light and a guy gets out with a ak-47 and you have a deer rifle and the guy with the ak-47 is shooting at you, most likely you will lose that gun battle because the ak is for combat, you cant compare a deer rifle and assault rifle, they have 2 different purposes.
Sweet! I grew up with hunting rifles in the mid 1950s before the nuts took over the NRA. The gun nuts gave the NRA and hunting a bad name. They also made the 2nd Amendment a big deal when it originally wasn't (just an amendment to give slave states the right to protect themselves against a slave rebellion and to run slave patrols).
I don't think most of you on here understand what point he was making. The media and certain politicians who bribe the media try to tell you that the AK 47 and other guns like it are weapons of mass destruction or something. They want it to be easier to outlaw these guns. This guy was only trying to show you an honest demonstration of the gun's power to prevent them from having their way.
@wtg2989 second amendment is right to bear arms, try to take my guns and ill use the right to form militia to remind the government they cant outlaw guns
AK-47 is an Assault rifle!!! Dont compared AK-47 to a hunting rifle or shotgun! Compared AK-47 to other Assault rifles like M-16 and you can see something weak!
Intermediate assault cartrige with FMJ vs Full powered rifle with soft points? Hardly a fair comparison. oh well, a gun is a gun as long as it is fun to shoot
Doesn't really matter since the AK is still an assault rifle that is more effective at killing people than a hunting rifle is, but regardless most liberals probably had no idea.
He's not dissing the AK, he's pointing out that the liberals are afraid of the "scary-looking AK47" and that an ordinary hunting rifle,(which they're cool with) is more powerful. Makes sense to me, proves anti-gun people know nothing. They just repeat the same lies someone else told them over and over and over...
i like this guy. hes showing people that just because the AK looks "scary" doesn't make it more powerful than guns used for hunting. there you go, anti-gun liberals
@bigbuthole420 haha this coming froma guy whos name is bigbuthole? Try comparing the ak 74s 5.45×39 to ur precious .223 or 5.56 it outperforms both of them in almost every aspect its also backed up by the world known toughness and reliability of the ak platform
Hey dick, why don't you show the firepower of Dragunov? Everything but AK eh? And why you fucker, compare the assalt rifle AK with carabines and bolt action rifles and pistols eh? Those are differen classes of weapons and make different injures. Just another damn critic!... Compare weapons from same class, fucker!
@iradew Its the dumbass liberals and media saying there is no sporting purpose for something like the AK or SKS, because it is so powerful if would rip a deer to shreds, the calibres he was comparing are well known deer cartridges, which, if they are used for hunting, will NOT rip a deer to shreds, so in turn the 7.62 x 39 Russian can and will take deer cleanly
@308Sharpie Everybody knows that the other cartridges are more powerfull than 7.62 x 39. But it doesn't make sence. That is not a hunting weapon (excluding the semiautomatic carabines "Arsenal" with the same calliber). That is called bad commersial only because one old dick hates the AK. That's bullshit!
@iradew The liberals and media don't, they think that because it's a military weapon it has the same power as the Browning .50. Just because it's not "technically" a hunting weapon doesn't mean it cannot be used as such, I know a guy who regularly takes deer with his Mak 90 (Chinese AK)
This guy ADVOCATES for the AK, he is showing the media and lib-tards demonizing the AK are wrong, it does have a sporting purpose
Hes showing the inefficiency of the rounds in stopping and destructive power, the AK happens to be his example of what fires a 7.62 round.
The AK might of won wars in numbers but the US army ballistic reports show a .223/5.56 round does more damage because it tumbles, it fragments, it bounces off bones and changes direction. 7.62 passes right through....
You don't have to admit it for it to be true, neither do you have to stop loving your AK to admit that 7.62 rounds lack something.
@bIGbUTtHole420 The only gun in the AK series to shoot in 7.62 is the original ak-47. Every gun in the series starting with the ak-74 has fired the 5.56 bullet, or "poison bullet".
now some wise words that ive heard earlier . if i was sent too an unknown planet and i was alowed to take only one weapon with me that would be an ak 47. lighten up people the only way too make it stop is to rool over a tank .america lost the vietnam war because of the ak 47
Another commie hating ignorant redneck that doesn't know what the hell he is talking about! He says the 762 round does the least damage and his evidence is a watermelon. The ak round does more damage than all of those rounds in its effective range. It's a slow moving bullet which doesn't zip through u that's why the watermelon stayed together That round will expend most energy into human body when it hits it unlike something humming 3000 ft per sec. All are devastating rounds
The Aks7.62x39 has 1/2 the power of the 30-30 I know I reload both 7.62x39 and 30-30 and use both rounds for hunting deer .
The 30-30 passes through deer without any problem, the 7.62x39 it stops mid way in a deer every time and has little damage affect, most often I have to use 2 or 3 7.62x39 on a deer to make that deer drop, and I am using Hornaday soft points with max powder change in the 7.62x39 for deer !
@68wcountryboy Your stupid idea the 7.62x39 is more damaging than a round traveling 3000 FPS is so stupid to me a professional hunting guide, I know by looking at a dead game animal and the holes or when the hide is off what round was used .
Let me tell you my 300 Weatherby with 180grain bullet at 3200 FPS blows holes the size of an apple in moose and liquifies tissue and vital organs , the 7.62x39 will make a hole the size of the bullet with small bruising even less than the 30-30 win !
@Hincesti07 All your blabber BS attacking messages are being deteled without opening them. Go away play with all the other AK fans here .
Live your life closed up never to learn from older men who have been around this world longer then you .
Maybe one day you will be in the wrong place and wrong time, someone will let loose a 30-06 , 300 win mag or 7mm mag round that will take clean off your arm or leg if it doesn't kill you then tell us a round traveling at 3000 fps doesn't do much damage !
@68wcountryboy You honestly think that a 7.62x39 is more destructive than a 30-06? You are completely missing the message in this video, he is showing that the ak47 isn't the cannon that the media make it out to be. He is DEFENDING the ak.
in the AR 15you can switch out the receiver from 223 two something more powerful like 6.8 spec. Anyway the reason the US chose the 223 was because it tumbles through the body which causes significant trauma and bleeding and fragmentation which makes healing almost and removal of the bullet almost impossible you'll bleed to death before they could help you if you're still alive.second it's extremely accurate round you could cover five shot group at 200 yards with you thumb.
@dan12345595 Your not all the correct, the AK 47 shoots 7.62x39 the AK 74 shoots 5.45x39 then some AKs for import have enters the U.S in 223 Remington.
The round that was shown here was 7.62x39 for the AK 47.
Those other rifles are ment for long range and of coure they will be more powerful because they need that power for their range, an ak is an assault rifle not a long range rifle, it is powerful on a full auto weapon and stopping power cale.
Interesting video but it seems to really be a comparison of cartridges rather than weapons. I haven't tried it but I'm sure that a soft point 7.62x39 would have a similar effect on the melon as the other hunting rounds.
If this was the case then why didn't the us supply everyone with 100's are 30-30's? Of course because they are heavy and they can't hold the capacity an AK can. We use M16's that are accurate but less powerfull then the AK. We all know the AK has better knockdown power but is less accurate. I owned both Bushmater AR-15 brand new and AK-47 new. The AR jammed on me whereas the AK never has jammed. That should tell you something in a immediate life or death situation.
I find it hare to believe that you have ever owned a firearm, much less a military pattern firearm. Ever heard of the M1 Garand or the M1903 Springfield? What kind of jam did your AR experience? Double feed? Bolt-over? Three point? How do you own these guns and NOT know even a little bit about past military service rifles?
@JaySmitty33 I would bet your are AK fanboy who will say anything negative about the AR and you have never touched one !
Every AR owner knows its rare the AR jams, even uncleaned these guns still function.
Today 3x more country's use M4 M16 as their military small arm than the AK so if this gun was so bad it would have faded away long ago .
You Ak knuckle heads really make your self look stupid talking BS all the time about the Ar or M4 M16, Modern country's don't arm their soldiers with junk
@Hincesti07 I own an AK and an i own an AR and im not a boy. I'm a man. Before you assume read that i pointed the the pros and cons of both guns before your true redneck ignorance starts to show. Both guns have there good and bad points, However from many tests done by army/tv shows a normal AK will be more reliable if it were laying or dropped in bad weather conditions. For example you put an AK in dirt or mud and put the ar in the same. I bet you your girlfriends vagina the AK would not jam.
@JaySmitty33 Well looks like another AK fanboy comment that doesn't even own a gun !
Even on You Tube anyone can see hundreds of AK test in mud and dirt with the AK fails in ever test and the AR works just fine after being filled with dirt .
@Hincesti07 Oh, you mean those tests where they disengage the AK safety to purposefully pour dirt under the cover? Those tests? Yeah those are so fair.
The day I see one where they pour dirt into the ARs trigger group and it still works I'll admit you're right. Until then you're just another AR fanboy who can't admit DI is the worst gas system ever created.
@ihaterobbie123 By reading all your ignorant comment I would say you have never shot a gun ever !
I am betting you have your hole gun information from You Tube AK fanboy morons !
I not only own a Hugh collection of rifles I am a 30 year business in Alaska as a hunting & fishing guide, I also build for sale AR 15's and AR 10s I know my guns professionally .
@Hincesti07 By reading your comment I can see you're avoiding my question. What tests are you referring to and how were they conducted?
"I not only own a Hugh collection of rifles I am a 30 year business in Alaska as a hunting & fishing guide, I also build for sale AR 15's and AR 10s I know my guns professionally."
@ihaterobbie123 Owning a collection of find made guns and being a professional hunter is not bias, its called telling the truth about real facts I have experience personally.
Now what do you mean avoiding your questions ?
Read my other post I have left here to see I have extensive experience with firearms, shooting them, reloading ammunition and hunting.
I am 51 years old so I am not some snot noised punk without experience with firearms.
So do I, you're not going to answer a simple question because you don't have a proper answer. And FYI I'm not "waisting" your time, I'm actually quite puzzled why asking you to source your claims is infuriating.
Nothing will change your mind because you're an old fudd who barks at anything he doesn't agree with in a fit of rage. It's gotten so bad you can't even get the words out straight.
You've yet to tell me what tests you're citing, so obviously I'm not going to believe you, because everything you've said so far has been unsupported opinion.
I still love my AK,,,while you working to chamber another round from your Winchester 30-30 or Remington 700,,,I'm putting rounds on target.,,over and over again...!
@zardoz7899 You have that correct, all Aks I watched shot even from a bench rest it patterned like a group by my 12 gauge with 00 buck shot you wouldn't of know which target was the shotgun or the AK target
With all Aks your dealing with manufacturing quality of 80 years back, the steel is such low quality often these shitty guns low end steel gets tressed then blows up taking the shooter eye's out,I did a cleaning on a Ak then it blow up and guy tried to take me to court because he lost an eye
@jodopeg Well you maybe putting rounds on target with your Ak but the target better be close, really close because those AKs are total shit for accuracy past 80 feet .
My 12 gauge with 00 buck loads and a target shot by any AK look just the same .
When the 7.62x39 is maybe if lucky 1/2 the power of the 30-30 I know from reloading and shooting 30-30, 7.62x39 and 223 the 7.62x39 is least powerful of a round.
The 7.62 of the Ak bleeds of power so fast I've seen 6' maple branch stop the 7.6x36 at 50 foot alway and the same branch a 223 blast right through leaving a gaping large hole .All of your kids have this crazy Idea if its Russian made it can blow everything into bits evan a tank, BS !
if the hunting rifles were so much better then the ak47 why isn't anyone using them for revolutions or liberating their countries? second, no way should anyone compare bolt action ammo to full auto ammo...
@wakeislander He's proving that the AK's stopping power isn't so powerful that it would be overkill against a deer and that it shouldn't be banned. It is a fair comparison hes comparing them with common firearms that you'd use for hunting deer to prove that its not that powerful compared to the other rifles.
@wakeislander There are bolt action rifle's that shoot the 7.62.39 round. Also they are only comparing caliber, not bolt action verses full auto. Either way the point of this is to show that the ak should not be banned because the government is afraid of it.
I dont know where u been in life, but i grew up fighting the assholes charlotte is trying to expose. I have been treated to first hand experience of what those assholes r capable of when u get in the way. They have tried numerous times to kill me. I have no fear of any man u want war come c me with no guns or other weapons. Ill show u what i felt at thier hands. Then u will understand,y i say what i say. Been to the graveyard more thanonce sissy boy. I love death im a merchant of it !!!!!!!!!!!!
In modern warfare philosophy, wounding an enemy combatant is regarded as superior to killing them. This is because a wounded soldier will cost the enemy far more than a dead one.
The 7.62x39 was never designed to blow up chunks or body parts. It's key effect lies in the EXIT wound/hole. Small entry, massive exit.
What a cheap way to prove a point though. Did you try the hollow point 7.62x39 rounds? No, they were FMJ, a kind of bullet that's not meant to incapacitate a victim but penetrate.
I've shot deer with 7.62x39 hollow point, and I tell you, the deer was soup.
Your trying to say the gun should be banned by shooting at fruit? Any gun and I mean ANY (except a .22 and a .17 HMR) will do that to a watermelon you twat
HALLOOOO DUDE W.T.F YOU USED HOLOW POINTS ON ALL THOSE RIFFLE VS 7,62X39 FMJ.OFFCOURSE YOU GOING TO HAVE LARGER WOUND AND MORE KINETIC ENERGY FROM HOLOW POINTS ROUND.NEXT TIME WHEN YOU DOING ONE OFF THIS STUPID ASS VIDEO PLEASE DO IT RIGHT AND USE HOLOW POINT ROUNDS ALL THE WAY AROUND.THANK YOU GRANDPA AND HAVE NICE DAY
before hickok 45 there was this guy shoting water melons. alot less entertaining though. he doesnt look hes having as much fun. and never said fun fun fun sweet sweet sweet as the water melon explodes. even the 500 magnum made a bigger blast of a melon
Honestly, you can not compare an AK-47 to a hunting rifle or even an old Winchester. The reason for this is because the AK-47 was built for neutralizing infantry, not for hunting deer. Deer are completely different from humans, and honestly I think this video was irrelevant to the AK-47. Another reason is because the cartridge the AK shoots is for penetration as well. Honestly, again, I think he is just trolling the AK-47, especially since he calls it ugly multiple times.
@xXSunnyXx14 i think all guns are pretty even a ak the one i got CenteryinterArms. AKU 7.62x29 all black tapco redone by c.i.a. just got a sling and a UTG upper reciver cover with picatinny railing and a shell ejection banger to shoot em shell down and a Nstar red got all for ubder 600.00USD and its a sexy beast, but i rather trust my 3006, rem. 78 sportsmant boltaction 7-in mag than a ak but CQC then its AK all day, or bullup style like FN, n steyr or 00buck pump Shotgun, with XDM9mm
One should also note though that the 7.62x39 hes using is a full metal jacket. the hunting rounds are soft point hunting rounds. the full metal jacket was a military round MENT to go straight through a person and not do alot of damage. as for soft point hunting rounds, when they hit the target the tumble and do ALOT of damage. this way it kills its quarry. not that im against this video JUST SAYIN. (also for the guy in the vid 30-06 was originally a military round to)
@Lonewolf15100 youre right ak rnds ment to wound more less kill but high powered rifle round ment for much more devestation , and yes my thoughts excatly springfield M1A1 ,<nowM1a socom, grand in 30.06, nothing can compare to that, ask the germans.
You cant compare rifles with assault rifles as their purposes are very different where as one is used in hunting and another is used in combat so it requires a compromise between firepower and practical application. The AK-57 amongst the most powerful assault rifles but its its bullet in comparison to that of a high powered rifle is mediocre, however, you do not see seasoned Spetsnaz special forces commandos hauling hunting rifles into combat
@eyeofth3b3hold3r I meant the inverse for combat, its a civilian weapon designed for recreation, but you could take an assault rifle for hunting, though in reality you would have to put it on semi-auto as fully auto could result in a mutilated catch.
@davedavedaveannoy1 assault rifle doesn't mean fully auto. lots of assault rifles do not even have a FA version. A lot of the m16's and m4's our troops carry are not full auto.
well it's obvious that there are rounds more powerful than the ones used in a ak47 rifle. The Ak47 is just a all around pretty decent gun. You can't use a shotgun at distance. You sure as hell can't use a sniper rifle for close quarters.
From reading all the comments here it is clear none of you get the point of this vid. He clearly states at the start that the myth he is trying to debunk is that the AK-47 should be banned because it is so powerful that it will "blow a deer to smithereens". But in reality it is actually on the lower end of power when compared to common hunting cartridge's.
@nanerrat I wish not to argue but I do wish to point out 2 items.1.The 7.62 x 39 round shown in this video was it a normal round?Remember,and I am not trying to argue I just wish to point out,there are MANY different types of ammunition available out there.The round could have been a hollow point(highly unlikely as the round would show more damage)OR a FMJ,which would cut through showing minimal damage.2.The article cited did not specify if someone used full auto or not to shoot the deer.
@nigellegin070 7.62x54 great @300-400metric yardsmeanwhile a 30-06 sprg can shoot up to 500yards at least fourhundread yards onpoint with lets say a 20-40 inch drop give or take the elements and anomonlies that factor with the shooter for one, if he/she cant shoot and measure up the distance of the trajectory +windage+elevation, and if they can dial thier scope for shit then the human factor is out and whats left is the gun ....which when given @ the time and place would call for said caliber
This video really ticks me off. It's such a perfect display of American ignorance, stupidity and bias. I am an American, so you can't insult me for being any other nationality, but I'm not proud of it. Why did the man not use a .50 caliber sniper for his example of a "high powered rifle"? Surely that would "prove" his point even more? Or could it be that his entire presentation HAS no point? I agree with crazyozzy1988, why did he not use an M16 for comparison, would it have ruined his bias? fag
Ok, i got the point, saiga .308 can do better than all of this,right? 'cus all what i see is a few rifles all with diferent purpose +SMG, SG & pistol not a well titled vid .I would say.. "Part of the truth of some type of bullets"
Can't it be argued that Ak 47 wont make as a big a dent in the watermelon because the makers of the gun dont want a clean hole through the target? As in the Ak 47 bullet is supposed to stay lodged in the target?
ok this is stupid. first, you compaired an assult rifle to a sniper rifle based on damage. of course the snipers are gonna win, they're made to hit hard at long distances without needing a high rate of fire. it would be alot better and more persuasive if you compaired other assult rifles to the ak. but its obvious why you didnt, because the AK-47 would win every time hands down.
@siandfriendstv well of course the ak is better than most assault rifles but it really depends on the user the AK47 and up were made to be easy operational with a easy breakdown and maintance , but i rather have a MA1 springfield over a AK but for versatility and assault power, close quarters, i'd pick the ak but in the field every tool has its purpose and its the skills that pt that purpose in full effect or not
@bigwillakingkilla thats what im saying, he compaired an ak and a sniper based solely on firepower. im just saying thats not persuasive at all because the ak and its round had different purposes than high power sniper rounds. so i guess i may have worded it wrong, and i agree with what you said.
before guns people used sticks and rocks to kill.....before sticks and rocks people used their hands...now - people use their political power to kill....people are ignorant then, now and in the future...its not the method but the end result that is the problem...the only solution is to change "all" people...that will never happen...at least not on this earth...and yes this video was a response to an idiot reporter...my little .22 dillinger has saved my ass more than once..more than my .40....

Yes, round for round it is like a "30-30 Lite" as Massad Ayoob describes the 7.62x39. But your typical lever gun, or bolt action doesn't have the ability to rock in a 75 round drum a spit out a round with every pull of the trigger. Rate. Of. Fire. Very important. Lets not kid ourselves because we are afraid of the anti gunners. A semi auto mag fed rifle has more firepower than a damn bolt gun, or even a lever action, regardless of the power of the individual round.

Sweet! I grew up with hunting rifles in the mid 1950s before the nuts took over the NRA. The gun nuts gave the NRA and hunting a bad name. They also made the 2nd Amendment a big deal when it originally wasn't (just an amendment to give slave states the right to protect themselves against a slave rebellion and to run slave patrols).

I don't think most of you on here understand what point he was making. The media and certain politicians who bribe the media try to tell you that the AK 47 and other guns like it are weapons of mass destruction or something. They want it to be easier to outlaw these guns. This guy was only trying to show you an honest demonstration of the gun's power to prevent them from having their way.

Hes showing the inefficiency of the rounds in stopping and destructive power, the AK happens to be his example of what fires a 7.62 round.
The AK might of won wars in numbers but the US army ballistic reports show a .223/5.56 round does more damage because it tumbles, it fragments, it bounces off bones and changes direction. 7.62 passes right through....
You don't have to admit it for it to be true, neither do you have to stop loving your AK to admit that 7.62 rounds lack something.

@68wcountryboy You really are stupid and ignorant !
The Aks7.62x39 has 1/2 the power of the 30-30 I know I reload both 7.62x39 and 30-30 and use both rounds for hunting deer .
The 30-30 passes through deer without any problem, the 7.62x39 it stops mid way in a deer every time and has little damage affect, most often I have to use 2 or 3 7.62x39 on a deer to make that deer drop, and I am using Hornaday soft points with max powder change in the 7.62x39 for deer !

Let me tell you my 300 Weatherby with 180grain bullet at 3200 FPS blows holes the size of an apple in moose and liquifies tissue and vital organs , the 7.62x39 will make a hole the size of the bullet with small bruising even less than the 30-30 win !

in the AR 15you can switch out the receiver from 223 two something more powerful like 6.8 spec. Anyway the reason the US chose the 223 was because it tumbles through the body which causes significant trauma and bleeding and fragmentation which makes healing almost and removal of the bullet almost impossible you'll bleed to death before they could help you if you're still alive.second it's extremely accurate round you could cover five shot group at 200 yards with you thumb.

If this was the case then why didn't the us supply everyone with 100's are 30-30's? Of course because they are heavy and they can't hold the capacity an AK can. We use M16's that are accurate but less powerfull then the AK. We all know the AK has better knockdown power but is less accurate. I owned both Bushmater AR-15 brand new and AK-47 new. The AR jammed on me whereas the AK never has jammed. That should tell you something in a immediate life or death situation.

Max powered charge for the 7.62x39 is 20 grains of the same 30-30 powder which the 30-30 takes 38 grains of that same powder .
The 7.62x39 FPS is 1900 the 30-30 feet per second is 2900 even 3000 FPS .

The 7.62x39 was never designed to blow up chunks or body parts. It's key effect lies in the EXIT wound/hole. Small entry, massive exit.
What a cheap way to prove a point though. Did you try the hollow point 7.62x39 rounds? No, they were FMJ, a kind of bullet that's not meant to incapacitate a victim but penetrate.
I've shot deer with 7.62x39 hollow point, and I tell you, the deer was soup.

Honestly, you can not compare an AK-47 to a hunting rifle or even an old Winchester. The reason for this is because the AK-47 was built for neutralizing infantry, not for hunting deer. Deer are completely different from humans, and honestly I think this video was irrelevant to the AK-47. Another reason is because the cartridge the AK shoots is for penetration as well. Honestly, again, I think he is just trolling the AK-47, especially since he calls it ugly multiple times.

You cant compare rifles with assault rifles as their purposes are very different where as one is used in hunting and another is used in combat so it requires a compromise between firepower and practical application. The AK-57 amongst the most powerful assault rifles but its its bullet in comparison to that of a high powered rifle is mediocre, however, you do not see seasoned Spetsnaz special forces commandos hauling hunting rifles into combat

a hunting cartridge will do the test better b/c of soft point lead bullet
the ak round will penetrate better b/c full metal jacket
seat the melon on a car seat close the door and do the same test .you see the ak will out do your hunting rifles cartridge
when i notice you had a suit on i figure .lol

From reading all the comments here it is clear none of you get the point of this vid. He clearly states at the start that the myth he is trying to debunk is that the AK-47 should be banned because it is so powerful that it will "blow a deer to smithereens". But in reality it is actually on the lower end of power when compared to common hunting cartridge's.

@nanerrat I wish not to argue but I do wish to point out 2 items.1.The 7.62 x 39 round shown in this video was it a normal round?Remember,and I am not trying to argue I just wish to point out,there are MANY different types of ammunition available out there.The round could have been a hollow point(highly unlikely as the round would show more damage)OR a FMJ,which would cut through showing minimal damage.2.The article cited did not specify if someone used full auto or not to shoot the deer.

@nanerrat You are up against You Tube AK fanboys here which are all morons crack heads and stupid criminals !
Everyone of these Ak fanboys brag the AK can blow any American tank into smoldering scram metal with a single round !
Then these AK fanboys all brag the Ak can blow the eye out of a rat at 10 miles away !
The bull shit gets so thick about the Aks by these Punk AK fanboys us older smarted adults really wonder how the young have become so stupid !

@nigellegin070 7.62x54 great @300-400metric yardsmeanwhile a 30-06 sprg can shoot up to 500yards at least fourhundread yards onpoint with lets say a 20-40 inch drop give or take the elements and anomonlies that factor with the shooter for one, if he/she cant shoot and measure up the distance of the trajectory +windage+elevation, and if they can dial thier scope for shit then the human factor is out and whats left is the gun ....which when given @ the time and place would call for said caliber

This video really ticks me off. It's such a perfect display of American ignorance, stupidity and bias. I am an American, so you can't insult me for being any other nationality, but I'm not proud of it. Why did the man not use a .50 caliber sniper for his example of a "high powered rifle"? Surely that would "prove" his point even more? Or could it be that his entire presentation HAS no point? I agree with crazyozzy1988, why did he not use an M16 for comparison, would it have ruined his bias? fag

@imiritu how about a S.C.A.R. or springfield Ma1for comparision? i can name alot of auto that are ballisticlly better but not as awesomeas an AK

Ok, i got the point, saiga .308 can do better than all of this,right? 'cus all what i see is a few rifles all with diferent purpose +SMG, SG & pistol not a well titled vid .I would say.. "Part of the truth of some type of bullets"

Can't it be argued that Ak 47 wont make as a big a dent in the watermelon because the makers of the gun dont want a clean hole through the target? As in the Ak 47 bullet is supposed to stay lodged in the target?

ok this is stupid. first, you compaired an assult rifle to a sniper rifle based on damage. of course the snipers are gonna win, they're made to hit hard at long distances without needing a high rate of fire. it would be alot better and more persuasive if you compaired other assult rifles to the ak. but its obvious why you didnt, because the AK-47 would win every time hands down.
siandfriendstv 3 months ago
@siandfriendstv well of course the ak is better than most assault rifles but it really depends on the user the AK47 and up were made to be easy operational with a easy breakdown and maintance , but i rather have a MA1 springfield over a AK but for versatility and assault power, close quarters, i'd pick the ak but in the field every tool has its purpose and its the skills that pt that purpose in full effect or not
bigwillakingkilla 3 months ago
@bigwillakingkilla thats what im saying, he compaired an ak and a sniper based solely on firepower. im just saying thats not persuasive at all because the ak and its round had different purposes than high power sniper rounds. so i guess i may have worded it wrong, and i agree with what you said.
