[QUOTE="HerkyBird, post: 1802773, member: 16551"] AK, for sure. 1 - 7.62x39 and 5.45x39 are cheaper than .223/5.56 2. - An AK will never quit. Shoot an AR long enough without cleaning and you'll turn into a single shot rifle...if you're lucky 3. - ARs have lower recoil resulting in faster follow up shots. You won't need a follow up shot with 7.62x39. 4. - While ARs are more customizable, you can put anything you'll need on an AK. You should be stockpiling ammo, anyway. Not customizing Barbie. 5. - AKs are less expensive. I paid $400 for my WASR. Don't let people talk you out of a WASR, either. Yes, there are some crap ones out there, but good ones too. Just gotta know what you're looking for. 6. - Accuracy? All you should be worried about is sub-MOZ groups. (Minute-of-Zombie) Also, whoever suggested the 7.62x39 AR just gave you the absolute worst idea in the world. IF you can find magazines, they don't work reliably. Stick with what the platforms are designed for. If you get an AR, get .223. If you get an AK, get 7.62 or 5.45. [/QUOTE]
