Yeah, I’m sure that the AK’s we used were the exception and that most AKs out there are really very good rifles for 200-300 yard shots. /s

Or is it that there are *some* rifles and *some* marksmen that can do it but *most* users of the AK can’t and won’t?

"Most" users of the AK are dirt ignorant peasants who haven't had a single day of formal instruction in their lives, let alone formal marksmanship instruction.

If one takes the time to properly sight in an AK you'll be surprised as hell at how far out you can reach with one. "Most" of the rest of those shooting AK's have heard all about it's legendary inaccuracy and therefore don't put enough effort in to learning the proper way to make hits at distance with one.

Who knows. Maybe your guys had some crappy shot out ones. But in my experience the 'off the shelf' stuff available to civilians here in the States is capable of much greater accuracy than people give it credit for.

It's a poor workman who blames his tools.
