Comparability truly inherently given?

I’m a bit bewildered about the lemma. There’s many distinguishing particularities between the two, beginning with unmatched prevalence (100M vs. a mere 8kk) and development philosophies, regarding caliber and ballistic profiles, etc., and even more eminently, concerning rather recent perspectives, i.e. the AK still happily been deployed around the globe, with the M-16 mostly replaced by civilian and ordinance derivatives. Sure, you can always compare two assault rifles, but both layman and specialist ought to perceive incomparable features of these unrelated makes. And of course the article is far too substantial to be contested, yet still, I find the comparison of those models, to at least some degree, questionable. -- Gohnarch 20:56, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

Why does is the STG44 on this page instead of the SKS?

The M14 was the rifle the USA army used before they started using the M16, and this is not the case with the STG44 and the AK WHYYYYYYYY!!!!!1??????? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hafflockman (talkcontribs) 14:08, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
