Hello friends,
I decided I would like to buy an "entry" level semi auto rifle. The two rifles I have been eyeing are the WASR (ak 47 clone) and the S&W m&p15 sporter (ar 15). Right now price seems to be a nonissue. I just logged on and noticed somebody else is discussing the m&p though I don't want to hijack his thread.
Anywho I have shot both rifle types, though not back to back (which I would have liked) and I am leaning towards the ak 47, mostly because of aesthetics.
Can anybody offer some constructive imput? Note I DO NOT wish to get into an AR vs AK debate which has been done over and over and over again.
I suppose I am asking is the M&p15 such a good rifle that I should go against my instincts?
