So much for the "make love, not war" slogan… 😂 I'm still not completely over our previous demonetized video…
I thought M16 was difficult weapon to maintain as it was one reason it was pulled out the front because it jams easily. Also, burst fire was introduced because with full automatic soldiers would waste the whole mag in mindless shooting in CQB situations… Maybe I've been fired with revolution then too much… 'murica wins again!

>MASSIVE ADVANTAGE
The only reason why people think AKs are inaccurate is because they don't know how to zero the sights… This is much more common than you'd expect.
"Poor Soviet logistics" Are you joking? The fact that they could mass produce these and they were still incredibly effective proves that wrong.
go ahead let's forget the infinite flaws of the M16 during the beginning days, and if not kept clean the M16 works as well as trying to breathe underwater. (meaning it stops working, has time to be revived, and then dies)
I Think ny favrite is the AK-47 but i feel like rather take the M-16.
But you can't rush b with a M-16
The m16 was present in Vietnam already… many inconsistencies in the video.
AK-47 – Reliable, Rugged and easy to use
M16 – Jams whenever the environment is too wet
AK 47🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
you forgot about the fact that the m16 was highly unreliable during in vietnam. pretty nice video
What’s the difference between an Ar-15 and an M16?
So untrue, the AK is far more reliable and easier to operate
I just love seeing the comments people opinions on ak47 and m16 I'm a gun in enthusiast by the way
The ak brings freedom the m16 keeps ahold of it
M16 is the gun of Capitalism(AMERICA)while the AK47 is the gun of communism(Soviet Union)
The m16a1 jammed due to no issues cleaning kits during Vietnam.
THOSE ARE RPK MODELS NOT AK MODELS I KNWO THAT AN RPK IS BASICALLY AN AK WITH AN EXTENDED BARREL BUT AT LEAST GO TO THE EFFORT OF GETTING THE CORRECT MODELS
Uhm you used the AK 47s relatives. Didn’t see an ACTUAL ak47
Do AK-12 VS …wait what does the US use now?
The AK jams more than the M16 jtbh
Your showing at 74s and rpk
Ak47 is the legendary one
You've done a poor research, many of the statements here are incorrect
AK 47
Can’t pronounce sturmgewehr right
I thought it was pronounced "sturmgever" not "strumgewear"
W's are V's in german ffs.
M16 is better than the AK. One of my relatives used the AK in Vietnam and described the first rounds of the mag as accurate and far ranged, but after that the recoil was too insane. Once they got their hands on M16s however, they say that the recoil and accuracy problems are all gone.
Assult is a verb. Assult rifle isn't a thing
M1 Garand is the best gun ever
M16 is a pea shooter
Teal legend use ak47
m16
I like the AK because it looks like it will rule the battlefield
I like the M16 because it looks clean and proffesional on doing its job
Do SA80 v M16
Fun fact: Most of the 'AK-47s' were actually AKMs, and it's actually the most common AK variant. Not the original AK-47 which has stopped production as early as 1959 as the AKM were considerably easier to manufacture.
You should do a m4a1 vs ak47 video
