In civilian life for defense, there is no need for a AR or AK or FAL or HK etc. I am perfectly content with a 5 shot snubbie and a .30-30 because they do all that is needed perfectly well.
When I hunt, it is not combat. I need only to place one shot correctly and no combat rifle is ever needed.
When I am in combat, I would wish for something more accurate that a AK and something with more penetration than a AR. In combat, most of your targets actually know something about cover and concealment and are not waiting for you to shoot them as they run toward you in the open.
