Witch is the best. I think a m4 is the best of the two. Give me your a opinion.

Real steel? AK-47 poops on the M4. Why do you think like 90% of the world uses AK-47s? Because they are powerful, yet simplistic.
Airsoft, it all depends on the brand of the replica.

What brand? Which AK 47?
If you are talking real steel, ARC answered it.

Real steel = AK
Airsoft = M4

Since ARC explained the AK being a better real steel, I'll talk about the M4

Because the M4 has such a large potential for attachments and modifications as well as it's primarily used in America, and since we are Americans we like American made things, the M4 just has so much more to offer than the AK. Just look at all the variants when compared to the AK. Hell look at the Sopmod all the freaking things you can mindlessly do to that thing.

Best doesnt really exist in this case, it all boils down preference.
I dont need attachments and I like wood as an external feature so I want an AK47 or AK74 with wooden grip(s). I am no fan of plastic on a gun.

As far as internals goes, buy a proper brand and you can do with it whatever you like, although that is true for many models.

Then y would our military use an m4 if they r not as good?
It's an American made gun and we Americans are stubborn.

I have lots of military friends who have seen combat and got their hands on an AK and now swear by them as apposed to the AR series weapons. Hell most of my airsoft friends who were/are in the military have AK weapons instead of an M4/M16 variant.

Not trying to rain on your parade, but if the M4 and M16 are such great guns why does the military so often have outside companies try to better them? SCAR, Masada, XM8, and other smaller names M4 variants were all designed to fix the flaws with the M-series weapons.

The AK hasn't really been touched much when it's been re-made by companies. AK-variants have virtually identical designs. The AR tends to come out an entire new gun all together.

Yes, RS and AS M4 externals do poop on the AK ones, but RS AKs are generally better.

Your knowledge is as bad as your grammar.

Seals, Delta force, etc (all highly trained forces) rarely use M4s. They use specified guns. Try comparing an M4 to an HK416. we were gonna change out the army's m4s with 416s, but we didn't cause we're $17 trillion in debt.
