@ogi415 It's about terminal ballistics. If a bullet goes all the way through, much of the kinetic energy is lost with the round. Also a bullet that passes straight though will cause trauma only around a straight line. A tumbling bullet will cause trauma over a greater area. This is easily shown in the popularity of hollowpoint rounds, which actually fall apart in the body to cause maximum damage (they are not used by military because the geneva convention forbids it)

@kazzemg FPSRussia isnt russian >.>

Yea sure the AK is more rugged than a mo - fo and it hardly ever jams...still the M4 - Carbine systems are more badazz and it just looks sexy

[juanecheyt]

@MrEeeeeeeeeeeed Obsolete is a rifle that jams all the fkcin time, that cannot be submerged in watter, that cannot get some stain..... That´s obsolete!, not the AK that can fire anytime. YOUR M4/M16 systems are OBSOLETE, that´s why your government has been trying to replace them for years. (SCAR, FN2000, XM8, HK416/17, etc).
