Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparison of the AK-47 and M16 (2nd nomination)
yeah, it needs a ''lot'' of cleanup, but the fundamental comparison is valid, considering the ubiquitous proliferation of these two weapons with belligerant parties (and given the history of opposing forces weilding these weapons). It does generalize a lot, there is some unreferenced contenta nd OR, and some tone issues, but most of the sources don't really pan out a |SYNTH argument. I don't believe a "slippery slope" concern is a valid reason for deletion: we can allow the AK vs. M16 comparison without allowing comparisons of every other weapon in existance. In the end, this article makes for a good metaphor for the Cold War in general
