User blog comment:USMC Lance/Whats the better rifle: M16 or AK47?/@comment-121.218.141.22-20111020103623

AK-47 was MUCH better than the M16A1, especially in the conditions of Vietnam where all the A1's greatest weaknesses were pretty much turned up to 11. However the later versions of the M16 are better than the original AK in most respects, but that's not considering all the modernized versions and variants of the old AK over the years...
