Watched a recent episode on yousetube about the "top ten rifles" or some such. Very interesting details about what the strengths and weaknesses of various weapons were, Garand M1, Lee-Enfield, M-16 etc. I was sort of disheartend that the AK-47 was #1. I can understand how but it seemed wrong that a cheaply and hastily made stamped steel POS should be #1.

In the comments someone said something to the effect of "If you want to survive a war you grab an AK, if you want to win a war you grab an M16"
