AK47 Pistol vs. AR15 Pistol

NOOOO civilians are shooting someone at 500 yards

repeal the 1934 section for sbrs already JFC it is outdated and just a tax on gun owners

Anybody know what kind of ar pistol that is?

idk they look cool but they do 2 jobs pretty horrible they do a poor job of being a rifle and a poor job of being a pistol you loose velocity accuracy (at distance) energy and a poor job of being a pistol due to being to unwieldy so the only real thing they have going for em is better penetration and velocity (for being handguns)

Gwebs, i may have skipped over it, but is that just an A2 grip cut down?

Ive not seen a bayonet on a ak pistol before, what model is it? is bayonet stock for all ak's

which would u pick which one is more reliable to u

so what's better the Draco or the ar15 pistol

YAWN!!!

after watching ur video now im stuck between an ak pistol with brace and an ati omni maxx ar rifle. i didnt wanna go with the ar because many people said every couple rounds or magazines the ar was failing.

if they bo ak pistol in 9mm .45acp .50AE and .308

bodyguards use these mostly you can get it under your jacket and get the power off kalash with size off mp

Does anyone know the exact brand that's makes this ak pistol can't find the name anywhere

you didnt show the best thing……shooting them :'(

the m85pistol uses the same ammo

what upper is that on the AR, do they still sell that model Thanks

Moron, take a bayonet, and then weighed. This AKS 74, 5.45×39

ak wont break !!

The video gets to the weight of each at 14:30. The AK is 6 lbs. 5 oz. The AR was 5 lbs. 8 oz. Very little difference.

I'm guessing the AK is heavier, but I only know the AK pistol by itself; I don't have AR pistol experience. We have a Zastava Yugo PAP-M92 AK-47. From my experience, AKs are a good amount heavier than the ARs since they're built like tanks. Regardless, pistols are light overall relative to their rifle versions, obviously.

You can even put a sandwich in that bag. Great info on the convertion kit. Thanks!

Looking at AR & AK pistol videos I was thinking "I wish there was a direct comparison
between the two"… stumbled across this, should have known GunWebsites would have it covered. Great detailed video!

good points, still an AK guy, but it cant do everything lol

crap now im gonna have to put a bayonet on my M92 …

I went with Kel Tec PLR 16 myself for an AR pistol.

Muzzle velocity and more importantly muzzle energy drops off as the barrel length is shortened. The .223 is a lighter round and velocity is of much greater importance to its terminal performance than the 7.62×39.
With barrels this short, I think the 7.62×39 round would lose less performance than the .223.
Any ballistics experts care to chime in?

You should expect plenty of muzzle flash if you are using "rifle" ammo in a "pistol"
Is properly loaded 7.62 x 39 or .223 ammo commercially available for these pistols or do you have to calculate & load your own ammo to get the most out of these short barrel pistols. ?
Any rifle or pistol can be used in closed quarters to cut or club when you've run out of ammo is great in my books. After shooting 90 rounds each of these pistols could burn someone alive as well 🙂

yes

upward slashing.

what if i was to take an extended buffer tube and put it on the ar15 pistol? I know it would function and i could put a stock on it. But if i did put a stock on it would it be considered a short barreled rifle?

when you stab with the ak bayonet you would go up which means you can hit the organs faster than the ar bayonet. I love both guns though

YOUR ak pistol might be inaccurate, but i think your biased. if you had a ak pistol with a full sized gas tube and a longer barrel it would perform much better than the ar pistol

no, it cant have a forward grip

on m16s the blade faces down, on aks it faces up, not sure why but facing down makes more sense.

Good video showed me everything I wanted to know, including the weight. 🙂

So a pistol cant have a pistol grip?

no. i hunt them with a polish under-folder AK chambered in 7.62x39mm. I have shot many with the stock folded under at close range but i tend to only do that if the hog is in a trap. I have the stock folded while walking. I unfold it once the dogs lock onto the hog and I approach it. never really shoot from farther that 30m. I also have an older bushmaster AR and I took it on a hog hunt once and hated it. AR is a good gun. Im talking about stopping power at close range. I prefer 7.62x39mm

you hunt hogs with a ak pistol?

Disagree, In my opinion the 7.62×39 is more devastating at close range than the .223 is. I hunt hogs and I've killed hogs with both rounds at close range. Assuming the pistol version is mostly for close range, 50m or less, I will go with the AK pistol for more stopping power. Oh, and you get what you pay for.

I didn't know caliber conversions with an AR was that easy… great to know!

To gut ur target like a deer lol in and up
