I've seen, personally, AR-15's yeet'd into muddy creeks, left there for five minutes, pulle out, function checked and fired. No issues.
Don't get me wrong, AKs are hella cool, and I shoot them when I can (cause they're fun to shoot) but dollar for dollar you're not trading much in the way of reliability.
Especially considering that a cheaper AR versus a Cheaper (for US market) AK, the AK will always be a problem child.
That said, a good AK is fucking hilarious to shoot.
But if I was going to outfit people with guns for almost any reason, I'm picking AR over AK, for logistics reasons, for training reasons, for modernization reasons.
(That said my major complaints around the AK include things like their less than steallr sight radius, dust cover requiring a dogleg for optics, the dropped stock being generally uncomfortable to me personally ergonomically, etc)
I have both an AK and have used AR-10/15 pattern firearms a lot (Prior Service) and personally I bought an AK pattern carbine for defensive use.
Ye, of course YMMV on anything.
Every choice in that sort of regard is an engineering compromise
Hell my Troll Carbine is built entirely out of AR-15 Pattern Parts
But I built that as a bolt action just to be a troll
kek
I wanna make either a really fancy fancy gun or a stupidly trollish one
Not fancy like high speed low drag
But like...uselessly gucci
Gold-plated GI mags
etc
People had anodised GI-Mags for a while, in like Pink, gold, blue, and other bright commercial colors
ye
TBH, I wanna get the body done up in that vantablack shit
You want it fancy
Dear god
Maybe some day
How about that for "Gucci"
Y'see that's more "classy" than "gucci" which is more like "this is so stupid."
I want to do a fugly tupperwere pistol
I even have the slide picked out

Then I just need the 80% and the internals. I was thinking .357SIG
Tediore pistol?
Basicly I want to make a Hi-point out of Glock Parts
Maybe I should be putting this in Shitposting...
Nah, it's a good idea
Making silly shit is half the fun of owning guns
If we took ourselves seriously, that's where you get problems.
Take that to the range, no sights, odd ball ammo, looks even more like a brick...

I call it the Shar-huahua!
