Do you have any supportive points for your assertion? Picitianny rails don't count. It's not hard to change furniture and put all the tacticool toys on just about anything.
If one was to a general look at the criteria for Assault rifles:
- selective fire
- intermediate cartridge
- engagement of targets at a maximum range of 200 to 300 yards.
While an AK may not be as accurate as other rifles, I do think it is accurate enough for the role intended, and will kill you just the same as anything in the M16 family of rifles. Although if your argument is beyond platform's and is more about the role of the intermediate cartridge itself, that is something entirely different.
