Iraqis prefer AK-47 over M-16 for performance in desert heat


"Do I really have to say it?"

'Series' for people who don't know what a TOILET is, expecting them to maintain the finicky M-16 in tip-top shape is a bit of a stretch. They'd have to clean heir weapon more than they clean themselves.

Will someone please buy 'the military' a clue.

I prefer the AK myself, it's like Superman, indestructible. (impervious to the elements)

...Exactly!...I just finished reading Rory Stewart’s “The Places in Between” about his walk across Afganistan...those tribal people are so backward they wipe their ass with their hand...the M-16 is not a rifle for mud people.
