Another Dead Horse Being Beaten Alert!

AK47 by far.
Try to bang out replacement part for a M16 With an old tin can and some rocks. There are videos of people doing just that.
They are so reliable and hearty you can have an entire army of children in Sierra Leone. So easy to use and maintain even a child can use it with little training.

Assuming the same skill level of the shooter, which one is most likely to hit its target consistently?

[JimRed]

The theory is that the enemy will be bogged down caring for the wounded.

That won't work against cultures that don't give a $hit about wounded troops.

Nasty scar I bet,
If he kept the
Arm at all!

I know people who have lost limbs, and it’s a terrible thing to happen. In the case of an Antifa terrorist though, the damage makes me smile.

It was the design concept when it was developed. AS you rightly point out, such concerns are a western morality. Communists and Islam have no ethos as lives are cheap to them

I have a few 5.56/.223 and they're ok, and the 7.62/.308 is the machine of choice. I have Ak's as well and I really like them. It's an excellent weapon.
