AK47 is more "cheap", by being made up of wood and iron, which is cheap minerals that affect the gun's price. it can be severly abused, and still work, but it can falter, and the wood parts can rot. Another good thing is that it is easy to clean. Origin: Soviet Union(Not actual Russia, but Socialist Period) Range is low, but fatal at close range. T.e.rorrists, criminals, and small groups use them. Russia does not use this weapon, but more advanced variants with better range, less flatering, better parts, etc.
The M16 is more expensive, by being made up of expensive metals and parts. It also can be severly abused, and still work. It falters less, but harder to clean then the AK47. Origin: United States, used by some other countries. Range is more far. There is multiple more variants of this gun still used by the U.S Military Branches, and it is a more advanced version of the M14.
Vote which gun is better! |

| AKs are horribly in-accurate. They are overhyped as "reliable" while they are usually, they have design flaws that for some reason people over look. I'd take an AR-15 anyday over an AK.. much easier to shoot, more accurate, much more comfortable to just hold. |

ak's are really bad they can break your shoulder they are so strong, and they barely hit anything. they're only good if you were shooting like a crowd. |

the ak-101s and such are actually pretty good firearms
there's still the issue of modularity
but they're pretty nice |

Exactly, Hyphalax
That's why you don't see the US, Britain, or any other European country using the AK. |

| m16's are used by the army. they are easy to use and are used to train the new mates. they are lightweight and are very useful in combat. i vote m-16 |

@gecko, yes, not even Russia.
The AK-47 was built shortly in Late WW2-End WW2.
That is why it is so crappy, in standards, but VERY Cheap. |

@Hxph AK47 is really good. M16 is hard to clean, jams easliy, breaks,backfires, and the recoil is high. You can fill an ak47 with sand and clean easy and it still will work fine. Poor 3rd world countries use it because after the fall of the soviet russia many of the bases/ forts in africa and germany were left to rot. The natives got in and took the AK47's. |

| AK-47's are extremely inaccurate. M16 is much more controllable. |

| In the Army the M-4 is about 80% fielded right now. Eventually the M-4 will replace all M-16s according to the plan... |

a bunch of things
first, they don't use genuine russian built AKMs, they use chinese or other copies
second, the M16's gone through many improvements since the generation one early 1960's version
the recoil is a lot weaker than the AK
and the reliability is worthless if you can't shoot for crap |

@gecko
army adopted the m4
marines use the m16a4 because they'd rather have a full length rifle than a carbine
both have their ups and downs so whatever |

@ Captain
You are mislead by media. The AR-15 platform uses 5.56 rounds, they produce far less recoil than the 7.62. |
