I'm fine with the AK design as it stands.
I have no more problem with the charging handle than I did with the Garand or M1A.
The sights work just like the sights on my pistol: very fast at close range and adequate to get hits on a man at 300 yards.
Folding poly stock (AK-100 type on a Arsenal SLR107FR) is comfy, folds compact, and has absolutely no wobble.
AK mags lock up tight and are built tough. Why would anyone wish for flimsy AR type aluminum mags for the AK?
The safety prevents junk from getting into the rifle's action, allows you to chamber check the rifle when it's on, is big and easy to use with muddy hands or when wearing gloves. You can't flip it on and off like I've seen taught for ARs or 1911s, but the AK isn't an AR or 1911.
