DefaultComparison between AK-47, AR-15 and Mosin-Nagant

The debate about which is better can be easily seen in this side by side by side comparison between these weapons.....

AK47, AR15 and Mosin-Nagant

Isn't there something about apples and oranges that would go well here. Comparing two semi-autos with a bolt action? rofl

But the comparisons ARE funny.....

AK-47
You can put a .30" hole through 12" of oak, if you can hit it.

AR-15
You can put one hole in a paper target at 100m with 30 rounds.

Mosin-Nagant
You can knock down everyone elses target just from the shock wave of your bullet going downrange.

Or with an AR-10 you can do as much damage as the AK with the accuracy of the AR-15.

Thanks! And like you said, it's just as accurate as an AR-15.
