> no, because when getting an ak you can either get the standard 7.62 or 5.45 which is what m4 and such shoot. Alot of people are shooting the 5.45 now but I would still probably get the 7.62 in the end.

The m4 shoots the 5.56 nato or .223. You can also get an AK47 that shoots 5.56. AK74’s shoot 5.45x39 and it’s very cheap. I think we sell it for 5 bucks for 30 rounds. 5.56 and 5.45 are close in diameter and size, but are not interchangable.
