[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 2118130, member: 24531"] That is a 556, not a 556R so you can't compare it to a 7.62 Russian gun...That is also the OLD version of that gun and not an 1100.00 Academy special...the older version costed more before prices came down. These guns were not meant to compete with the AK BTW, they were meant to marry the best features of the AK & AR into one rifle...they are reliable with the Ak-style bolt and gas system, but they are more accurate than an AK and accept AR mags and some accessories...I have read good reviews of the 556R too if you were meaning to refer to that instead of this 556 classic you linked to. And if comparing to an AR, show me a 1000 dollar AR that can fire THOUSANDS of rounds in adverse conditions without adding gun oil or cleaning...you can't...the 556 is heavy and not quite as accurate as the AR, but it give you closer to the reliability as the AK.
