Best AK in 5.56 For The Non Poors

What's the expected service life of a typical AK? 80K rounds? 150K rounds? Before it blows up? How about a Pioneer 'forged'? will it kaboom at the 1500 round mark?

Pioneer does not have a stellar reputation, to put it mildly. If you are going to shoot a lot, might as well buy known quality gun from the beginning.

And that's the point. Let's try to define serviceable? How does it fail.

If failure means a cracked frame you are out of business.

If failure means gradually decreasing accuracy, then you are still in business, just limited.

7.62 x 39 AKs are more limited by their crappy ammo and terrible sights when it comes to practical accuracy.

In theory a 5.56 AK has a huge advantage from the beginning because it can use highly accurate ammo.

I would say servicable rifle would include the ability to effectively zero and qualify.

Qualifying means different things to different organizations.

And as non military, non police, many don't know what you mean. So you rolling on the ground response suggests one of 2 things.

1) you don't know the answer
2) you look down on people who haven't served or aren't cops.

So, please, define qualify.

🤹‍♂️What is the 2n rule?
The "2n rule" is a special case of a rule employed by the IJA to determine when a juggler can do a trick. This is basically for the purpose of determining qualification at a certain level in a numbers competition. To qualify for a trick involving n objects, you have to complete 2n *catches*. Some people use the 2n mark as an informal (but easily defined) measure of when they can claim to be able to "do" a trick. The actual rule employed by the IJA is (number of hands) * (number of objects) catches. This makes a difference for passing attempts since there are more than two hands. You also have just 1 minute in which to make a qualifying run by IJA standards.
