AK-47 may look cool, but they really are not that accurate compared to the M16 series of weapons. Not only are the grouping abilities not all that good, but many of the rifles show a tendency to walk as they heat up (that is the center of the group moves, not a constant zero).

Of course someone will come on and tell me that is not true, but in many years off competitive high power shooting, I have seen only a handful of AK variants show up at matches, and typically the performance is so poor they never return.

That is on modern NRA competitive targets, where the 10 ring is from 3.35 MOA @ 200 yards down to 2.0 MOA @ 600 yards, or scaled targets down to 100 yards.
