do any of you actually think that an ak is in anyway better than an ar a $500 ar15 can out preform almost any ak in almost every situation and the more reliable argument is bullshit and if you make it than you clearly have never had to use your rifle in any non perfect situation.

Both rifles are extremely reliable and can get the job done.
The ak(specifically in 7.62x39) is excellent for 1-400m
The ar(specifically 5.56x45) is excellent for 2-600m
They each serve different roles so please stop making threads.

AR's don't really require as much maintenance as AK's do, but other than that no.

granted, the reason why AK's are popular anywhere is that they are simple rifles that work very well and don't require much care. AR's are also very rugged and last tens of thousands of rounds as long as they aren't some shitty build, but they do need some cleaning and some maintenance to keep the mechanics okay. also since AK's are cheaper in most parts of the world it's a no brainer that it would be a go-to for a lot of militaries.

in the US though I think people just like AK's because they're neat. AR 15's are great guns that work well, but they just feel lifeless to a lot of shooters (myself included).

They serve the same role this just proves you are uneducated on major military’s use of weapons

You are right but that wasn’t my argument given the option any semi intelligent person would choose an ar platform in any real world military use

Look on my works, ye mighty and despair!

They serve the same role because they're intermediate round rifles... In modern fighting not so much.
Sick opinion though. Really proved the point you barely made. Whatever it was.
>uneducated on major military’s use of weapons
Rifles don't win wars.

AKs are more fun to shoot.

It's not an apples to apples comparison OP. The AK-47 is a carbine that delivers a larger bullet with less precision while having the advantages of durability and reliability. The AR-15 is designed to be effective at a longer range and have various forms of optics attached. At short to medium range the AK-47 takes the cake, but at ranges greater than 200 meters, the AR-15 will be more precise especially if optics are utilized.

Just get whatever is cheapest and good quality at the time and don’t buy into boomer snobbery that think price always equates to quality.
>ak cheap, ar expensive
Hah look at that poor fag never catch me with one of those shitty junk. This here ar is classy and expensive
