Ive got a 2 aks and 6 ars. In my opinion the aks are a bit more reliable. Im not talking parts breakage as ive yet to have either break a part. The ars are a bit more ammo sensitive and dirt sensitive. Keep them relitively clean and oiled and use good ammo and they run like a top. A ak might keep running with crap ammo and more dirt but if theres a target out there at 300 yards I sure know which id want to enguage it with. Ars are amazingly accurate. In my experience just as accurate as any bolt gun. Aks are more like a bullet hose to me. They may be more relibable but theyd better be as your going to be shooting alot more to hit targets.
