for hunting I will go with the ak bcuz of it's fire power,but if you want more and better accuracy,go with the ar.

AR-15 should be more accurate as far as the hunting goes I would think by a little. A AR will be a bit more pricey also. Both guns can be customized as much as you want. From what Ive seen the AR might be a bit lighter than the AK. Both guns are nice as hell and I wish I was getting one haha.

I think its more personal. Which one felt better while shooting?

I would personally go with the ar myself. Unless you plan on dragging it through the dirt and sand the aks really aren't that nice. The barrels tend to warp easily.

Honestly, neither's a good choice for deer hunting. You'd serve yourself much better with a bolt gun in a medium chambering like .250 Savage or .260 Remington.

If you're worried about fast backup shots, maybe a levergun in 30-30 (or 7-30 Waters) or a heavy pistol cartridge ... but those are better for brush hunting, where a twelve-gauge with sabot or buckshot would do well also. All jmo. But the AK is marginal for deer, even with premium ammo, and the AR is just criminal. Not enough momentum behind that tiny pill. Yes, the .223 has brought down a lot of deer, but it's also served up more than its share of cripples and slow deaths. Hunting ethics demand a more positive weapon. Jmo. cn
