Question to any gun experts or people who have used military weapons.?
November 15th, 2009 by eranio
What are the factual decibel or dB levels are for both the M4/M249/M16 in 5.56X45(.223) and the AK-47 in 7.62X39?
Other than a different pitch or tone, is there any loudness differences between the two weapons? Or are both weapons equally loud, just different pitch to them.
Does anyone own both weapons or fires them could tell me. Thanks.

I can’t give you the dB levels, but you should be able to Google them. That information is definitely somewhere out there in cyberspace. As for the loudness, my experience has shown that AK-47s are a bit louder because the cartridges they fire are larger and contain more explosive material. Bigger boom = louder boom. Hope this helps!!
