Assuming we're talking about the rifles you have in those pictures?
AK. The red dot will be much faster than the AR irons. IMO, speed is key in combat.
I also have more experience with the AK.
That said, THR doesn't do "what-if" scenarios.
P.S.- Nice AK, I love the graffitied surplus mag and PK-A.

don't judge the actual rifles in the pictures. nevermind optics, stock options ect....
what if this wan't a "what if" question......
thanks. it's the PK-A venezuela. never mind the 'actual rifles'. yes, this is a cliche question......but.......whatever. mods.....feel free to delete this if it's against regulation.

My typical answer.... The AR. Ergonomics are better, accuracy is better, magazine changes are faster...
I'll take some heat for this but, the AR is just a better platform.

I'll take an AK. I've got exponentially more trigger time with them.
Not really. A person trained on a decent AK will be just as effective as a person trained on an AR.

Having been dropped into a combat zone, loading ramp of a CH-47 not actually dropped I'll take a solid M4 anyday.

One of whatever everyone else on my side has. At longer ranges, it should be comfortable and accurate. Up close, it should be simple and reliable. Not being a decade and a half-old, low bidder manufactured, teenage e-3 maintained FUBAR-16 would also be a plus, but a FUBAR-74 wouldn't excite me on any good ways, either.
I'd rather be wearing cans in the back end of a Spooky.

Same here. Though I have more experience with the M16A4 than the M4.
Whatever I am issued. We are not going to play the what if game, we did that a bunch last year and it almost always ends in a "x is better than y" argument. When everyone knows the correct answer is k.
