When in a folding configuration, either side-folder or underfolder, they are incredibly compact, especially with a 20-rd magazine used initially. AK’s are undeniably rugged, portable in any configuration, and consummately reliable. The .30-caliber 7.62×39 round can easily handle just about any 2-legged problem and is quite effective as an anti-personnel round.
Ak’s may not be as “tacticool” as an AR, or have as much HCF (“High Cool Factor”), but they are an excellent choice when there is no parts resupply and you can’t clean the weapon as frequently as would be necessary with most other weapons.
