Simple question.

(Only 2 options here. So GeOW Lancer, spartan laser, grav gun, portal gun, crysis mini nuke, plasmids, lightsaber vibrators, your fists, or any other smart ass answers don't count.

Definetly the AK. Just because the M4 is easier to control doesn't make it better. I doubt any people know how to field strip it here and without proper cleaning the M4 is a piece of crap. The Ak on the other hand requires very little maitenace, is simple and is incredibly hardy.

AK. Larger calibre means better stopping power and penetration. Much more reliable in terms of ease of cleaning and operation. Can be fixed with any AK parts no matter the manufacturer and ammo is pretty much surplus in most any country. That it is looks badass.

The M4 is an overly complicated spin-off of a '60's relic that needs to be retired for something simpler and more reliable. Like the XM8.

If it's urban warfare I'd go for the M4 but desert or any other terrain the AK it's the most reliable rifle, guarantee not to jam

I have fired both weapons (semi and auto) and there are pros and cons for both weapons

M4

Has accuracy and precision, doesn't weigh as much, down side smaller caliber and jams frequently in full auto mode

AK-47

Not as accurate, has stopping power, larger caliber and pretty much can drag that thing through hell and back and it won't jam

Comes down to personal preferrences more then anything, for me I'll take the AK

M4 for accuracy, AK for durability. Most guys I knew in Iraq carried both. But lining up a shot at some jihadi from 400 yards knowing he has no chance in **** at hitting you with his ak is the ultimate feeling;)

The M4 isn't that hard to strip, and it's much more accurate than an AK. I think 5.56 rounds are better than 7.62 anyway. Either way, I wish the US would start giving soldiers a gun that combines the best aspects of both weapons.

I've heard that the M4 is a flawed design. Plus having actually fired the Ak in real life, I'd have to go with it.

I've heard a lot of good about the AK-47 and its ease of use, so I'd go with that. However, I am a true American, and I would be a little torn about my decision.

It depends on the situation. If it would be a long rage fight I would pick m4. If it would be a close combat in an sandy area (like Iraq) I would pick AK-47 ,because from what I've heard sand is not good for m4 ,but AK-47 doesn't give a sh*t about sand.

Out of those two, I would probably take the M4.
Though if I had a choice of the guns used by forces all over the world, I'd take the Gewehr 36 (G36).

Unfortunately though, the British Army uses the SA80 which I'm not too fond of. We should have swapped to the G36 when we had the chance. Although, being a Tank Crewman, small arms will be the least of my worries.

I've never heard of a nation that arm's it's military with AKs and expects to give the US a hard time in an all out war.

And I also prefer is because it's what many special forces use, so the M4 must be doing something right.

I can field strip an SA80, the British Army's primary gun, are they similar? AK is a LOT more reliable than most guns out there so I chose that.

M4, the AK is durable but can't match the range of the M4. Besides, the AK doesn't have a recoil spring... I don't wanna hurt my shoulder :P

I'd take the M4 because since we're currently fighting in an urban area, it would be better to have a shorter gun for sneaking behind corners.

The_Ish

And you know this from how many examples? How many all out wars has the US been in since the creation of the AK? None? Ohh right, there was that whole cold war thing going on which prevented conventional all out war from happening with the threat of a nuclear war. So what proof do you have thats true.

I can name 2 nations that gave the US a very hard time with the use of the AK: The quagmire that was Vietnam, and the middle eastern Vietnam (can anyone guess what it is :D).

Ha! And I thought the Black Templars knew tactics!
