Former Army medic here -this guy is full of shit. 5.56 rounds do not "explode heads" among other things. The entry wounds are small, yes, but often there are no exits wounds. This fucking guy is LARPing hard.
I was in the actual infantry, and saw plenty of shot up bodies. The 7.72 rounds of AKs will do far more damage, which is their intended purpose. The 5.56 rounds is made to stop you if you're aiming center mass, but not exactly kill you. Obviously this is negated by shots to vital organs, or even opening an artery. The initial belief was that the enemy, if wounded, would take another person out of the fight to save them. What we didn't know was that our "enemy" wouldn't have a care for human life and believes that death is a magic ticket to 72 virgins...
The M4 is a versatile weapon that can serve many functions, but blowing holes in chests isn't one of them.
Those 5.56 rounds hit, and there's cavitation inside the body, but rarely an exit wound depending on the location. Arms and legs will go clean through unless hitting bone, but center mass shots stay inside. Headshots will remove part of the skull depending on location of the round, but no fucking heads are exploding.
The smoke thing is flat out false. I've seen the SAW gunner laying down suppressive fire for at least five minutes (bursts to keep the barrel from overheating, and rounds in the chamber from cooking off) and never saw the barrel smoking. M4s also don't overheat like that and there's no smoke on the barrel ever (in my experience) Steam is possible in cold weather, but not straight up smoke.
This "medic" doesn't know shit. I'd love to beat his ass into a skin bag full of bone chips, but the faggot likely never leaves mom's basement. I wish I could kill every fucking stolen valor LARPing faggot right along with the kikes (probably the same people most of the time)
The rounds of the AK are not designed to tumble or fragment. They'll go through the target delivering only a part of the 2000J of energy of the rounds. The 556 rounds carry almost as much energy but deliver most of it to the target. 556 has to be far more deadly than the AK and not the other way around.
Hey dingleberry. Every fucking round fired from a rifle will tumble after a certain distance. You know this, correct? You seem like a wikipedia Ranger to me. The AK will absolutely fuck your shit apart. The projectile is larger.The 5.56 round is smaller, and will do less damage... or literally every person in the Army?Marines/Navy who teaches classes on this topic shit is a lying fuck. I'm willing to go with their experience over your 20 minutes on wikipedia, kike.
The ignorance is amazing. Put the rounds next to each other and it won’t be a difficult question which one delivers more energy, assuming you have any understanding of physics.
