Actually, my first thought is the gunman is obviously poor and clueless about rifles.
The guy has pretty low standards for marksmanship if he likes the AK.Give me a HK91,FN-FAL,M1A or any number of good accurate rifles-leave that other piece of junk on the rack.
Bang for the Buck, is it an excellent weapon.
I would however take a Russian AK-47 instead of an M-16 in a desert or jungle environment due to its loser tolerances and ability to take a beating and of course a round with more stopping power than the 5.56.
There are however a glut of crappy low tolerance AK clones out there though.
I wouldn't mind picking up one of the AK104s
