Hmm...I really like them both. I started an AK guy all the way. Then I slowly migrated to the AR.

You end up having the same amount of cash in either and they cost about the same to shoot.

AK is more reliable but my AR runs flawlessly... I admit it gets cleaned regularly.

If I want to shoot 3 gun and varmints with the same gun it is an AR situation.

Ammo for the AR weighs less. Parts for the AR are more abundant. Options are abundant. AR shoots alot flatter.

AKs are around the world for a reason. Lol, it is just hard to say what is best. I currently only shoot the AR which is undergoing some changes.

Should I run a Leupold VX-6 1-6 with the illuminted reticle or a Vortex 2.5-10 and an offset RMR?
