I don't see any issue with it, the AK was one of my first rifles.
I have to disagree here. The sights on an AK are the same sights on just about any hunting rifle, shotgun, or military surplus rifle. They are simple and work well enough, and actually better than a peep in some instances.AK - archaic open sights, stocks that are too short, and usually dismal trigger.
If your AK cant shoot better than this, its probably not the guns fault. With decent ammo, 5" at 200 yards is a very reasonable expectation from even the cheapest AK's, and that using the stock iron sights.It's no fun shooting targets when the rifle can't shoot better than, say, 5" groups at 100 yards.

RUGER 10/22 - don't get no better nor cheaper for a first rifle for anyone.

AK as first rifle for inexperienced shooter?
Would an AK be a good first rifle for an inexperienced shooter? Why or why not?
If I could, I would spend money on an AR but they're too expensive ...
It does. I've had both a 60 and a 10/22, and the Marlin 60 is better AND cheaper. I sold the Ruger and scoped the Marlin.
