But its still only a .22 … (that was the guy’s objection to the AR)

Worse, the 5.45x39 uses a 53gr projectile at 2900f/s compared to the 5.56x45 55gr projectile at 3200f/s.

So … if one is going to damn the AR for being “only a .22”, one should similarly damn the AK for being “only a .22”.

I got mornin’ brain and not enough coffee... :^)
