.35 remington,
I see this is only your 4th post, welcome to the Forum. We like input from newer posters and you are on the right site. Keep posting!
In 1965, as a GI, I qualified on the Matel 16 and did not like it then. I would take the AK-47 any day over the M16. Gil says the M16 is more accurate than the AK, but recall how much effort went into "tweeking" that M16 to get it on target: they changed the rifling twist rate, the powder and the projectile to get on target. If as much effort had been placed on "accurizing" the AK, just imagine what the results would be today. The AK users knew they had a great battle rifle when it came off the assembly line and now 50 million copies later, it is still the #1 combat arm in use, in my humble opinion.
