Re: Who owns what? AK vs AR

I am an AR fan for a number of (mostly subjective) reasons. I use this as a home defense weapon coupled with a 7.5" barrel, AAC 2000, BMFF, and EOTech 552. I don't have to worry about killing all of my neighbors and muzzle climb is near zero. I prefer this over my 870 or 1911 on case by case. If I can clear some bad guys house, floor plan unknown, badguys unknown, with an M4 then doing my own house is cake. And yes....I practice doing this in pitch black, usually while the wife is on girls night out, lol.

I have never had an issue with an AR variant, even my gov. issued M4 ran like a top no matter what the hell I did to it. It even survived a fall off of a roof with me attached. My currect rig is by far of higher quality than my cookie cutter colt. Reliability? Check.

I have a ton of experience shooting both platforms however I am more comfortable with the AR ergonomics. Comfort=precision. Check.

Ammo used to be free.....but it's not hard to find good ammo at reasonable prices....that can be reloaded. Check.

Both are fun, effective weapons I just PREFER to use the tool I am most comfortable with. To each their own, I pity the man who chooses his sword by the popular vote.

I forgot to add one last thing: A suppressed SBR M4 just looks wayyy cooler (if we are talking tacticool, some people are in to that sort of thing) than an AK.... I just keep thinking of all those poor guys over yonder duct taping broomsticks and mag lights to their AK's......it's a personal thing.
