are AKs kind of seen as low-tier?

Depends

Im thinking on how to word it

how much bling it got

AK is status

But ARs are more common due to

Guys wanting to show theyre hard ass

Badass i meant

bruh that's strange

Like army guy

But understandable tbh

so if I roll up on TJ i can just show some dude my gear and ill be a sicario right

The AK does feel more manly

if you don't know much about guns

and chamber a round on an AK vs AR

What does badass guys use in american films

whatever the DOD wants

the AK feels like it has some heft and authority to it's action

Thats why either LTs and up use them

Its like

Fuck, its weird

Explaining the why

The lower theyre on the henpicking order

it make the louder bigger boom

You get both extremes of practical

And bs

Cause ive found so many gold plated deagles in fucking 50AE

As ive found good glock 19s

I'd assume the guys who are high enough up to not have to be doing a lot of the actual killing are the ones with the AKs and deags

Deags nah

1911s

AKs yeah

Or some vintage

and the grunt / foot soldier types are the guys rolling around with glock 19s and basic bitch ARs?

Motherfuckers always want their colt 45s

can't stop talking about them

With the newest guys you find both @[redacted]

Some practical stuff

Like a decently built AR and a decent semi that aint over a century old

To a fucking naziboo with a fucking STG and a luger

How common are /gq/ quality of life things like slings, weapon mounted lights, optics, etc?
