Being ever the researcher I am I never gave thought till someone asked the question. As a former test engineer I came to conclusion that its like trying to compare apples and oranges, they both have their pluses and minuses and they offset each other more often than not. If I was handed this as an assignment to make a recommendation as to which one was the better, I could not make that recommendation without a specific criteria of what is the better you are looking for.which would be better and which would be the best ? overall ?
I'm no fan of democraps/commies so I have no love of the AK.
I thought they used Vicks Vapor Rub to preserve him!You're breaking Stalin's heart. He's probably fogging up the glass cover on the casket now. Leaking a cabbage and Lysol aroma.
How dare you....
LolI thought they used Vicks Vapor Rub to preserve him!
An underappreciated gun. I love yugo sks's. Each one has shot great for me.In contrast, Shooting a Yugoslavian SKS in NRA matches earned a first and a second place finish! SKS rifles don't have the Kool factor, but they will outshoot an AK easily.

For the intended people that use them they work superior to the AR, the AR on the other hand for its intended user it is the superior. So it becomes the hands of the user that makes the different but still equal in the final analysis.
That said, where the rubber meets the road, I don't like the AK because everyone that has ever tried to kill me had one in their hands and none of them are here to answer the question in this thread, but I am!
Why wouldn't people want a x39 AK?
I love it when a round has 74 feet of drop at 300m
Thanks for correcting me, since my post was totally serious and in no way a completely obvious joke.More made-up shit.
7.62x39 has a drop rate of -26.5812 inches at 300 yards (close enough to meters) and still retains a velocity of 1430 fps...

Even at 350 yards, the drop is still only 42.3234 inches, no where close to the "74 feet" that you claim!
