AR/M16 aren't designed to be lethal.  In fact they're design to NOT be lethal.  An injured opponant removes two to three enemies from the battlefield whereas a dead one only removes one.

This is a test. Just keep on going. Don't worry. We'll get it right. We've done this before.

I thought NATO required ammo to not allow undue suffering?
For an AK, Vepr is top of the line.  Stamped receiver, 50% thicker than the others, two stage trigger, can bumpfire 30 rounds in two seconds. Only AK I've ever handled that is on par with AR.

If you want a gun that fires through mud, sand, rain and all that shit go for an AK.
If you want a lesser in power but greater in percision go with an AR-15.

my dad has a phat AR-15 A2 but it seems he keeps having problems with the firing pin and jamming cartridges.

They make drum mags for both AR's and AK's.  And both are notorious for being very unreliable.

Better to have a bunch of 20/30 rounders that feed consistently than a couple of drum mags that you have to clear jams out of every 20-30 rounds.
