KingThreatzz: The Ak47 like the US Ar15 is useless same as all rifles against the highly agile light weight drone. Yet the AA12 gage automatic shotgun blows drones to pieces. If it's shooting out high powered heat without jamming it's a good rifle. |

KingThreatzz: The AK-47 is totally outdated. Yes it is reliable, but it is basically an antique. Even the Russians no longer use the AK-47 but rather the AK-101 and AK-103 with later versions joining their arsenal. The Chinese also do not use their version of the AK-47 (Type 56 and 56-2). I recommend that the military phase out the AK-47 for the Polish Beryl Rifle presently being used by Army and NAF Special Forces, or even the GALIL ACE rifle used by DSS and even purchased by Nigerian Immigration Service. 5 Likes |

[quote author=omotoniwa post=73570316][/quote]ak47 withstood all the weather challenges, it can be fired inside water the gun doesn't jam..! U can pick up an ak47 that hasn't been fired for years place a mag in it..! Fire away no need to worry about jaming or whatever..! It AK47 was manufactured by a soviet soldier..! |

comshots: The AK 47 is Russian rifles so the US can never issue it to it's soldiers but US soldiers have been known to drop their m16s and pick up dead enemies AK47 during battles because of the reliability 3 Likes |

FarahAideed:Am sure u aware that the Ak as accuracy problems even with a scope The weight is also a problem The American AR 15s are lighter, accurate and Vibrate less during firing than the Ak 47 The Ak is outdated the Russians knows it Its more of a Rebel rifle than a millitary 3 Likes |

Passionate888: Even the US doesn't use the AR 15 , the AR 15 is not even an assault rifle but a semi automatic sport rifle which can not be compared to the AK47.... Believe AK47 is still pound for pound the best assault rifle |

There is some misconception here and folks have to understand what the loose term 'sophistication' means. Modern, updated, technologically superior can hardly describe what the inventory these insurgents wield, at least from the ones caputured. I really cannot see any sophisticated weapons used in the Bornu theatre. What I however obswrve is that they seem to come to battle with a better balance of weaponry carefully selected to defeat our military. If they counter your infantry with truck mounted, thus mobile heavy machine guns they will do damage to fixed infantry positions. If they bring rocket propelled grenade launchers and can man them tactically they can take out your APC's and light vehicles. If they bring those 88's with anti-aircraft rounds as long as the palm of my hand then even helicopter gunships will need some serious tactics to penetrate their envelope. None of these weapons are unusual or exotic. They just seem to have a better balance of weaponry, and a different tactic driven by their warped philosophy. They donot come to fight, they come to die. It is difficult to contain such an adversary. But doubtlessly our military needs to step up, re-arm properly and adapt their tactics. If they donot have the requisite equipment to hold the ground and dig in, I suggest they keep mobile to offer these bandits less of a static target to assault. 6 Likes |

Newboss:When u say shorter carbine You should take note that the magazines are at the back making good use of the shorter than The Ak that as its magazine at the middle and not making full use of the long carbine |

From my own perspective as someone that has zero knowledge about guns, the Op thinks because the dss guys Tar-21 are bigger and finer it is more sophisticated...... But from what I have gathered here I think AK wins the battle for me, coupled with the fact that it has a shot knife attached for necessities 5 Likes |

richeeyo: AS 15 is not even an assault rifle and can't be used by any ARMY as standard issue, I hope you know the AR15 is a semi automatic and is even marketed and sold as a semi automatic sport rifle .. No comparison .. the AK 47 is still the best assault rifle pound for pound anywhere Sir ..take my words ..even the US ARMY standard issued M16 was inspired by the AK47 and the U.S. still use it as standard issue till date 1 Like |
