The Russian made AK is a very reliable weapon. It will fire until it catches on fire and then keep going. Also notice that the AK was repaired in the field by banging it against the table and it was able to fire again.
( the other AK tested was made in the US and not as good as the one made in Russia)
I recommend that everyone should own an AR magazine fed semi auto rifle in 5.56x45 (223) for protection if there would be civil unrest in your area, or nationwide.
But over 100 million AK's have been made and they are the ultimate in reliability. Our soldiers have picked AK's up on the battlefield that were made in 1950 and still operating perfectly. Plus the fact that they were being used all that time by farmers that knew very little about firearms and did no maintenance on them. They will operate without lube or cleaning; the AR requires both to operate.
