I'm perfectly accurate with the ak47 in Counterstrike. What do you knowOriginally posted by: Mookow

Overall the m16 is better. The US army doesn't use an AK47 and IMO they can use whatever the hell they want.
From what I've read and understood from movies and video games and never having fired anything in my life except a BB gun and shotgun I hear that the 47 is very reliable and exceptionally well constructed (moreso than teh m16).
Heh, I read the thread. Seems I"m right
Its not better constructed, so to speak. The tolerances on an AK are very loose, which is why you can abuse the hell out of it and it'll fire. Loose tolerances are also why the accuracy is sub-par.

hey dood right out of the box. Its just that some of us know how to shoot and other dont its that simple.
Thanks Anandtech Moderator, but I truly feel that a Desert Eagle is the weapon for me. It's much easier to conceal, allowing me to sneak up to my opponent in an urban setting (where I reside). In addition, the .50AE is plenty of stopping power. btw, I've never trolled a thread in my life.Originally posted by: Mookow

Even if it were funny once (IMO it wasnt), trolling definitely isnt funny twice on the same subject. So, try not to troll in this thread.

Well, depends on the situation obviously. I've never shot an AK, but I did shoot a galil. I liked the M16 more, maybe because I was used to it more, but the Galil was fun.Originally posted by: Mookow

Galil recievers were serious $$$$ last time I checked.

If the M-16 is a better weapon, I wonder why that a couple of months ago in the news they reported that American soldiers preferred to use confiscated AKs over the M-16s in Iraq

So, which is the all around better weapon? The Ak47 or M16. Started from another post, was curious what the general consensus was.

Desert Eagle is just for show.

That was mostly vehicle crewman who preferred the smaller AK's, large quantity of available ammo, and throwaway nature of the AK's.
I also say some pictures of special forces type guys in Iraq or Afghanistan with AK's with what looked like Aimpoint sights on them.

Two weeks ago, Sgt. Sam Bailey of Cedar Falls, Iowa, was in a Humvee when a patrol came under rocket-propelled grenade and heavy machine gun fire. It was dark, the road narrow. On one side, there was a mud wall and palms trees, on the other a canal surrounded by tall grass.
Bailey, who couldn't see who was firing, had an AK-47 on his lap and his M4 up front. The choice was simple.
"I put the AK on auto and started spraying," Bailey said.
