you're very right! In Vietnam some us soldiers actually abandoned their new M-16's for vietnamese Ak's. Ofcourse, this made them vulnerable to friendly fire-but the advantages of using such a great gun made it worth it

The AK-47 is more reliable than the M-16. No doubt. But that is its only advantage. You can shoot further and straighter with an M-16. The M-16 has a much better safety system, it can be accessorized much further/better, etc. The AK-47 has a bigger bullet, but not big enough to make a difference.
Neither of them hold a candle to the M-14/M1A, though ;-)

I've played with the FN-FALs...haven't tried others. The real FN-FALs and early civilian versions are great, but there has been a lot of crappy copies over the years. But the overall design is excellent.
I really prefer .308 to the newer .223. I like .223 for some things, but for combat, .308 is better. .223 is easier on logistics (a man can carry more rounds, hence shoot more freely, hence doesn't have to be trained as well) and tends to cause more injuries than fatalities, which are more draining on the enemy. But for a civilian, I prefer .308.

Great. After a white racist committed a 3-double murder on a turkish , a black woman, and a belgian baby, our already sever gun laws have been stricter.
It is almost impossible to get a license to buy a gun now.
You need to be a member of a shooting - club for that.
But in order to become member of a shooting cub, you need to have a license to buy weapons.
a bit bolshevistic isn't it?
