Is the M4/M16 louder than the AK-47 due to the higher gas pressure and because of the higher pitched sharper crack vs the lower pitch not as sharp crack of the AK-47? I was told that the 5.56X45 is slightly louder than the 7.62X39 but not by much. But other people tell me the AK is louder so dunno.

How much louder is the 7.62X51/.308 over the 5.56/.223/7.62X39? Is it by a lot or just by a little bit?

I heard the MK-19 is not that loud. But can it still damage your hearing or no?

How loud is the AT-4, the javelin and the RPG-7?

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.
