that was just the first year of use, after they fixed it. It wasn't jamming because it was floppy, it was jamming because the pentagon got cheap and switched powder types, and didn't issue cleaning kits to troops. the powder got gunked up because it didn't burn as clean, and in jungle enviroments that's like pouring tar down the barrel.Sacman said:wait the M16 caused the most deaths to Americans in that war because it kept on jamming... something that doesn't happen to the AK...TerribleAssassin said:NO YOU HAVE TO BE RANK 70!Sacman said:The AK-47/74 duh...
In all seriousness, keep the M16, it took the Viet Cong out, and it's probably took more people out than I can be bothered listing.
The AK47 jams, it's just it's breach is large enough to easily extract, but has the reliability of a monkey plane parts inspector.
