Well personally i'd much rather engage an enemy at 300 meters than at 100. The further away the better.

The way I see it with the M16 you get 100-200 meters to kill your enemy before he gets into range to use that AK effectively.

Also it's not like at 200 meters the AK suddenly becomes as accurate as an M16. The trouble you had hitting your target at 300 with the M16 is the same trouble the AK shooter will have at 200 and an ill maintained AK like we're talking about will have that trouble at 100.
