RE: How accurate are AK47s
I've seen guys at the range try to shoot 100 yards with AK's. They had more misses then hits. I have an AR M4 style and a Mini 14. I can shoot tight groups with the AR and hit the traget at 100 yards with the mini. The mini isn't a nail driver but it hits it's mark. I would choose one of those before an AK.
But the AK will fire all the time. NO Jams or FTF or anything.
you have to ask yourself what is more important. A gun that will always fire and spray rounds or a gun that will shoot where you aim.
That being said a gun will shoot better with the more practise you get.
Shoot more and shoot more often.
